A scheduled talk by Thilo Sarrazin at the London School of Economics has been canceled by threats of rioting:'Jewish gene' banker’s LSE talk cancelledThis sounds like the kind of thing that has happened to both Jared Taylor and Ann Coulter.

A lecture by a German banker who has referred to a "Jewish gene" due to be held at the London School of Economics last night was cancelled at the last minute due to security concerns.
Thilo Sarrazin was due to speak in a debate organised by the university’s German Society last night. The university stepped in to stop the event taking place on campus after anti-fascist campaigners threatened to demonstrate against the speaker.
Mr Sarrazin, 65, was forced to step down from Deutsche Bundesbank after he said: "All Jews share a particular gene" in his book Germany Does Away with Itself last year.
The event was later held at a nearby hotel.[More]

I quoted a thing by Jeremy Clarkson earlier in which he pointed out (in the context of mass immigration)that England doesn’t even allow rival football fans to sit together in the same section of the stadium for fear of rioting.
