JoeDirt 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2005 --Warrior did a speech at the University of Connecticut last night which turned into a free-for-all. Norm Mogyhtaderi, a sociology and history major said Warrior's beliefs were homophobic and racist. There was a major protest group and arguments back and forth, with Warrior screaming and stomping on the stage and saying he would answer all questions after his speech in a Q&AS format. Many people in the crowd were yelling and attacking him verbally as he spoke. Officers were called for back-up and the crowd was at one point told if they didn't stop, the speech would end. Warrior's actions were not supported in the end by the group that brought him, the College Republicans. "We are truly sorry that the Warrior did not measure up to our standards," said Heath Fahle, of the College Republicans .When it was over, the group even sent out a press release apologizing for his speech. They wanted Warrior to engage in a respectful debate. Warrior lost the crowd when he said, "Queering don't make the world work." When an Iranian student asked him a question, Warrior said he needed to "get a towel." As you can imagine, this caused another outburst. Other students then told Warrior he needed to apologize for the remark. Warrior showed a video where he ripped up an Iraqi flag. During the speech, Warrior admitted that he used steroids while in wrestling and called for other athletes to be as honest as he was on the subject.

Special K 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2005 Man, wouldn't it be a trip to live in this guy's head for a day? And If Warrior was a crazy liberal instead of a crazy conservative, there would be a collective circle-jerk of every conservative pundit to call Warrior's statements indicative of every single liberal in the world. It'd be a feeding frenzy. He did say one important thing. Queering don't make the world work. He knows because he tried so very hard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ISportsFan 0 Report post Posted April 7, 2005 Warrior responds to the attacks by those spineless Republicans and World Class Crybaby Liberals from last night's speech from wrestlingobserver.com (probably taken from Warrior's site, whatever that is) From the Desk of Warrior April 6, 2005 Santa Fe, NM – This release is in response to allegations made in an email from UConn student Russell Passig, as well as remarks made in two press releases by the UConn College Republicans regarding Warrior’s appearance at UConn on April 5, 2005. First, Mr. Passig’s claim that Warrior’s address was tantamount to “university-funded hate speech” is absolutely ridiculous. While it is certainly true that Warrior’s positions are often controversial, the reality is that what people like Passig whiningly denounce as “racist and homophobic” is merely what reasonable adults would classify as nothing more than being politically incorrect. While Mr. Passig, Mr. Traugh, Mr. Moghtaderi, and any others who objected to the substance of what Warrior had to say would certainly have been within their rights to challenge Warrior during the Q&A period, the truth is that they lacked the class and common sense to do so. After repeatedly interrupting Warrior's speech, these individuals chose to further instigate Warrior with baseless ad hominem attacks - thus eliciting highly-charged responses from Warrior. To top it all off, this World Class Crew of Crybabies is now attempting to have the UConn administration punish the CRs for words that Warrior spoke. Yet another timeless liberal/left-wing/anti-American tradition - when in doubt, blame the Republicans. All of the above notwithstanding, it is somewhat sad to see how utterly spineless the UConn College Republicans have turned out to be. Not a single UConn CR voiced any objection to Warrior after the event. The detailed emails between Warrior and the UConn CRs reveal that the CRs repeatedly encouraged Warrior to single out the Tent City Trash for some re-education. Yet, it now seems that the CRs have collectively decided to bow down and beg forgiveness from various extremist, anti-American, left-wing groups who infest the UConn campus. Perhaps the UConn CRs should refrain from engaging in political activism until such time as they develop enough backbone to be able to withstand not being liked by their opponents. It bears mentioning that Warrior demonstrated considerable restraint given the disrespectful and petulant behavior of a small minority of the students. These individuals unwittingly illustrated one of the most pernicious truths of modern liberalism: that while self-described liberals claim, ad nauseum, that they support freedom of speech, the truth is that they only support free speech as long as the content of that speech is acceptable to them. The moment that a single word is spoken that questions, challenges, or otherwise conflicts with their myopic, misguided views of the world, their enthusiasm for the First Amendment totally disappears. In closing, Warrior emphatically rejects and dismisses any attempt to portray his appearance at UConn as anything other than it was – a straightforward, honest discussion of Warrior’s philosophical beliefs. That his words have been mischaracterized and that the speech was occasionally interrupted by a relative handful of students (who, for some reason, all seemed to smell like patchouli oil and burnt flag) does not detract from the fact that the overwhelming majority of those in attendance had a wonderful time and agreed with most of Warrior’s points – a fact that is corroborated by dozens upon dozens of emails that Warrior has thus far received from attendants. Warrior thanks all of his true fans and all of the true Conservatives who took time out from their studies to welcome him back to Connecticut, and hopes to see them all again very soon. Always Believe, Warrior This guy is truly hilarious. Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Arnold_OldSchool Report post Posted April 7, 2005 "Hey Scott, Long time reader, blaaaaaaaaaah blah blah. Listen, I attended the Ultimate Warrior "event" here at UConn on Tuesday night, and let me say that it wasn't as crazy as the news reports are making it out to be. It was much crazier. First of all, the reason it got to near-riot levels was because a group of extreme-leftist/hippies found out about Warrior and his stance on several issues and verbally attacked him from the audience every time he made an extremely-right-winged comment. Warrior was in rare form that night. After he made a comment about how homosexuals are nowhere near on the same level as heterosexuals, which elicited an "oh my god" from a female student, he quickly replied with "Don't have an orgasm now honey, save it for later!" And when an obviously gay student started screaming at him from the back of the auditorium, Warrior replied with "I can't hear you with that thing in your mouth." Just crazy. For the record a good 3/4 of the audience were old wrestling fans who just came to see their childhood hero (like me)... it's a shame the section of students who were on a mission to cause trouble succeeded. The Warrior has been touring colleges for the last few years and this is the first time he was met with such... resistance. Anyways, here's a link from to an article in our college paper. Keep up the good work Scott -Chris http://www.dailycampus.com/news/2005/04/06...467.shtml" Geez, I'm shocked people are even surprised when Warrior goes off and says something completely inappropriate in public these days. FYI, his response on his website is even funnier than the original story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
