For those who think Robinson was “radicalized” at a University…

I actually went to Utah State University. There is no way in hell he was radicalized there. Perhaps it was a reaction to being at such a stifling conservative school and community, but the school and professors certainly did not do it.

Wouldn't a stiflingly conservative school's social pressure be a radicalizing factor? It's not like only "leftists" get radical; mostly we see right-wing radicals getting violent -- Christian, Muslim, etc.

@ChipmunkErnie yes, but it was no “brainwashing” by professors as is being claimed.

@trollslayer I don't know, but it would appear your experience there was probably about 25 years ago so you wouldn't have had the same professors or exact experience as this young man.

@ChipmunkErnie culture of the university and town hasn’t changed.

@trollslayer That bad, eh? Sounds terribly repressive if a quarter century brings no changes.
