Student: Mr. Crowder you have had a number of, shall I call them, inflammatory videos,
titled, there is no such thing as Moderate Islam.
How can you make such a definitive claim, when the version of Islam that I practice,
that my peers practice, on a daily basis, is very moderate, and differs from your perspective
on the religion of Islam.
Thank you very much.
Steven Crowder: I think that's a fair question, and I think that's a question that deserves
answering.
People here talk about how racist, homophobic we are, and how we mistreat women.
Can you point to me any Islamic country that would meet the standards they've set for people
like us tonight.
Any Islamic country that women are treated.
(Protestors Shout)
Steven Crowder: No we're not confusing politics, we're talking about anywhere where Islam congregates
to achieve political power on planet Earth.
Is there any bastion of freedom and equal rights in the Islamic world.
The only place that people point to are places like UAE, Indonesia, where people are violently
mistreated if they convert to Christianity, where women are mistreated.
Listen, I think that there are a lot of great Muslims here in the United States who think
as you do.
But the fact is, that has never actually been rooted in a place of power in the moderate
Islamic world.
And when I talk about these videos....
(Protestors Shout)
Steven Crowder: Well unfortunately Islam, unlike Christianity or Buddhism, is an actual
political system.
It is a prescribed system of law.
It is not merely religious ideology.
It is a prescription on a legal system of government, and that's why you see remarkably
anti freedom, anti free speech, anti women, anti gay legislation, in every Islamic country
on the world!
I don't care what you have to say about it, I'm looking to their laws.
And stop speaking: fascist, fascist.
You're a great public spokesperson for Muslims (To Protesters)
Milo: Its also worth considering in the light of what Steven said, there isn't a single
world class university anywhere in the Muslim World.
Not one.
Why?
Because there are structural problems with Islam that prevent this from happening.
And, you know, you have two kinds of Muslims in the US.
Some of you aren't going to like this but I'm going to tell you anyway, cause its true.
You have two kinds of Muslims in the US, you have nice, assimilated middle class Muslims,
who, lets be honest, aren't the most devout believers, they don't necessarily do Namaz.
Some of them don't pray five times a day.
They drink, they smoke, they have sex outside.
Whatever.
Lets just say they're cultural Muslims, but like I might be a cultural Catholic perhaps
you might say.
These are not people who pray five times a day.
You have these people, and you have them here because you don't border any Muslim countries.
You need to take an intercontinental flight to get here, which limits the sort of people
who can arrive.
So you get nice, middle to upper class Muslims from nice families, who are Westernized and
assimilated, and they're your friends.
And you think, oh gosh these people are saying such terrible things about Muslims but I know
so many nice Muslims, that can't be true.
Well its because of where you are in the world.
Right?
So you have those nice middle and upper class Muslims, and you have t**rorists.
That's all you have here.
Steven Crowder: Look, I don't have a problem with you.
Milo: What you don't have here, is what Germany has, 1.4 Million Syrian refugees, or should
I say migrants, who come in, commit the most appalling crimes and abuses against women,
homosexuals, trans people.
You've got nothing to say about that by the way.
What you don't have is a massive influx of working class Muslims, and it will come, and
it is coming, and when it does, you will think very differently about this.
Steven Crowder: One final thing, because I do appreciate taking the question.
Two phrases, listen, my problem is not, of course there are plenty of great Muslims out
there.
Not every Muslim is a terrorist, its important to be able to note that.
Muhammad was.
Protestors: No he wasn't!
Steven Crowder: And I have a problem with that.
If you look and read about Muhammad's life, he killed, he called for the death of Christians
and Jews.
I have a problem with that, and you know what, that's okay.
Just like atheists have a problem with Christianity.
Moderator: At this point we'll conclude our question and answer section.
One final round of applause for our speakers, thank you.
(Applause)
