The professor who was with Dr Murray when the Leftist mob went berserk offers her rationale for what happened. Read this only to have insight into why Liberalism is ultimately an ideology of political suicide.

Political life and discourse in the United States is at a boiling point, and nowhere is the reaction to that more heightened than on college campuses. Throughout an ugly campaign and into his presidency, President Trump has demonized Muslims as terrorists and dehumanized many groups of marginalized people. He declared the free press an enemy of the people, replaced deliberation with tweeting, and seems bent on dismantling the separation of powers and 230 years of progress this country has made toward a more perfect union. Much of the free speech he has inspired — or has refused to disavow — is ugly, and has already had ugly real-world consequences. College students have seen this, and have taken note: Speech can become action.

Yeah, you got it. Basically it was President Trump's fault, but there were other factors.

It is obvious that some protesters made dangerous choices. But with time to reflect, I have to say that I hear and understand the righteous anger of many of those who shouted us down. I know that many students felt they were standing up to protect marginalized people who have been demeaned or even threatened under the guise of free speech.

You get the drift. So I offer this not because it's particularly insightful about what happened at Middlebury, but because it illustrates a Liberal mind set that refuses to acknowledge a dangerous totalitarian trend and instead excuses it.
