11446 David Horowitz/reparations for slavery -- rank: 46

Sounds like Horrorwitz to me. He's a bit of a sociopath, no? Will say almost anything to tar his opponents, including whining about being (verbally) "persecuted." He may indeed be giving some kind of campus tour. He was at UCLA at some convocation of conservatives last Friday and Saturday. But ...
