People are stupid..

Um.. who are these nuts?

Lol, first the monkeyshow and then the scientists :)

@chewbackawookie I felt that they made a point. It was an amusing minor anoyance for those soley interested in the talk (which happened regardless). Dawkins probably felt pretty uncomfortable; he supports the private univeristy (morally questionable in the sober light of day) which this group of individuals is against.

@Schizopantheist Want to alter public education??? then DO it and don't whine about private institutions who have the right to do what they wish, within reason....

@Schizopantheist What's wrong with a privately funded University? Not EVERYthing needs to be shared, you know....If I want to pay extra to go to a higher tier school, than I have that right to spend MY money however I see fit.

@Schizopantheist BTW, can anyone point me to the response from Dawkins mentioned in the description, i can't seem to find it at the linked website? Thanks!

@trinitymike I fail to see how people protesting against private education are spoiled brats. Surely they are taking time out of their day to -protest- against spoiled brats!

Direct action is a controversial tactic, but i am broadly supportive of it and of the views of these protestors. I also enjoy the talks of Richard Dawkins. But i think here (in his association with Graylings institution) he has made a mistake. It is not a totally neutral action ('i'm just a teacher') to become a teacher at a private institution at this period when education is undergoing such changes, rather it's a loaded choice that suggests Dawkins is happy to -exacerbate- social inequality.

My favourite bits were "You're all individuals!" "Yes! We're all individuals!" and the chap who got up on stage with his back pack trying to explain that he'd flown all the way from Turkey to see this talk and it was being ruined. It was a good talk in the end between PZ and RD.
