"A university ignored multiple warnings about a speaker's extreme views and history of abusive behaviour – leaving him free to single out a trans student and bully them on-stage.
Far-right internet troll Milo Yiannopoulos has seen his media profile rise thanks to attention-grabbing bigoted comments and support of Donald Trump, whom he refers to as 'daddy'. "

The university ignored warnings the same way our country ignored warnings such as the outrageously misogynistic quotes from the mouth of "daddy."

Warnings are easy to ignore while the results can be harmful bullying and pain that lasts a lifetime.
