José Ruba's presentation "Echoes of the Holocaust" hosted by Choose Life McGill--hijacked by protestors

From Campaign Life-Quebec's blog:

As the presentation got underway, about 20 protestors began shouting and singing children's songs. They then crowded around the vacant podium (Mr. Ruba having absconded) and continued signing for the better part of an hour, at which point police arrived. Two protestors were taken, but many were left behind. When the police left, protestors resumed and disrupted the presentation (which had fitfully resumed) until the two hour mark, at which point event organizers were informed by campus officals that time had run out and the room had to be closed for the night.

Protestors then filed out, along with most of the audience. A police officer showed up again, answering some questions for the campus media.

We'll have video of the whole debacle tomorrow...


They can't debate properly, so they shout people down. Only one opinion allowed about abortion on campus. Nice going pro-aborts. Your intolerance is showing.
