Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler react to a disrupted UCLA Federalist Society event featuring DHS General Counsel James Percival, arguing elite law schools now reward activist intimidation and vulgarity while teaching critical legal theory. They connect this culture to rising tolerance for theft and political violence, citing Hasan Piker’s comments and a New Yorker writer’s shoplifting, and raise concerns about Democrats opposing limits on sex offenders working near childcare. Hanson warns that left-wing institutions and corporate donors amplify groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center, which he claims gins up threats to drive fundraising and blacklist opponents, especially after Charlottesville.
