Old interview on the Mark and Jim show

When we made our new website, we lost some of the stuff on the old Western Youth website.  I found this in the archives.  This is from April 2009, in the aftermath of the first Tom Tancredo event at the University of North Carolina.  This is me on the Mark and Jim show in Los Angeles. 

Obviously, we are in a much different place now than where we were then.  However, as the Tea Party movement and the Arizona controversy has grown since then, I think my point is even more relevant.  Has any conservative group, ever, even in the midst of the supposedly terrifying rise of right wing populism, ever shouted down a liberal speaker?  (Ok, besides Congressman Joe “You Lie” Wilson.)  Any conservatives throwing bricks through windows while leftists try to talk?

Here’s a tip for every conservative — no matter what you do, you are the bad guy.  Leftists can protest, use extreme rhetoric, flaunt radical connections, and even use violence.  No one will care.  The double standard is there because leftists are the establishment.  The establishment actively favors what is happening to this nation.  They are in power — we are occupied.  Recognize that, and you’ll be ready to start mobilizing for real change in this country.
