Ben Shapiro Sends Blunt, Profanity-Laced Message to 'Bloviating Jackasses' Who Tried to Shut Down Campus Lecture

Ben Shapiro had a blunt message for protesters who attempted to shut down his speech Thursday at California State University, Los Angeles: "f*** you."

The conservative writer, known for his no-holds-barred rhetoric, posted the profanity-laced message to his Twitter account after student demonstrators pulled the fire alarm during protests aimed at stopping his campus lecture.

Shapiro also addressed the protesters from the podium at the conclusion of his speech.

"For all the people outside," he said. "Here’s my message to the bloviating jackasses outside: toughen up you spoiled brat snowflakes if you actually want a better world."

"We can have an actual conversation if they were up for it. There are mics here, people can ask questions. They could have engaged that way, they chose not to," Shapiro continued. "Maybe they are right about how to solve America's problems. Maybe I'm right. Maybe someone in the audience is right. We are never going to know because they won't let the conversation happen."

Shapiro concluded, "Not all diversity is bad, some diversity is terrific. The left just ignores the only type of diversity that matters. Until they stop, America will only become a more pinched, bitter divide country, divided by tyrants, like some of those who are standing outside this hall, at the front of your classrooms and in the halls of your administration."
