NICK GRIFFIN'S MICHIGAN STATE APPEARANCE CANCELLED; HE'S NOT COMING TO THE STATES AT ALL NOW!

 

Sad GriffinLet’s face it, you win some you lose some. We didn’t expect that American Renaissance (AmRen) Conference was going to be canceled, so the fact that it is back on doesn’t bother us. The fallout continues for Jared Taylor & Co. though. British National Party Leader Nick Griffin decided he is not coming to the US now that Michigan State University joined Kenyon College in Ohio in disinviting him. Given that the climate around the AmRen Conference is iffy to say the least, he feels there’s no point in him coming out here at all to just talk to the Conservative Political Action Conference – which by the way has to be a great relief to some folks who are attending that. Conservatives get away with Muslim hatred, so it is expected that Geert Wilders could show up there. Griffin? No, that’s another ball of wax, especially with two colleges giving him the boot and the big white power conference walking on a tightrope. Ah, being a bonehead is never easy, is it?

In a statement published on the American Renaissance website, Michigan State University’s Sons of Liberty student group announced that they will not be able to host Nick Griffin on Wednesday, prompting the British National Party leader to cancel his entire trip to the US, which would include speaking at the American Renaissance Conference which is back on as of Tuesday afternoon after being cancelled itself by organizers due to opposition to the event.

“The event was cancelled because left-wing agitators caused other organizations to cancel their own events that featured Griffin, and it could not be justified for Griffin to fly to the U.S. to only speak at MSU and at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C.,” the Sons of Liberty statement read. Besides the American Renaissance Conference and CPAC, Griffin was also slated to speak at Kenyon College until opposition to his appearance prompted organizers to withdrawl the invite.

Sons of Liberty, stated that threats of violence prompted the cancellation, just like the organizers of the American Renaissance did when they cancelled. To date no one has been arrested or identified as responsible for such threats in either case.

This would have been Sons of Liberty’s first public event.
