Walking home across the quad today, I observed a man standing on a bench in front of the Union holding a microphone and a placard that promised eternal damnation to queers, feminists, atheists, etc., the usual. While I found his whole thing offensive, or more just obviously and annoyingly flawed, I was also a little disturbed by the crowd of students standing around laughing their asses off, and asking him leading questions as they put their digital cameras right in his face. So they didn't agree with him? Neither did I. But they were being jerks, you know? What good does that do?
Kind of a depressing scene.
