Here’s an awkwardly written interview with Dennis Prager by somebody on the left who obviously can’t stand the talkshow host’s views<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Prager’s gift with words goes back long before his embrace of La Ca\u00f1ada \u2014 “Norman Rockwell-ville” and “a beautiful slice of America,” he calls it \u2014 a city that is both the childhood home of his wife Susan (who as Susan Springett graduated from La Ca\u00f1ada High School, which her son from a previous marriage now attends) and a stone’s throw from the KRLA 870 AM studios in Glendale, where from 9 a.m. to noon on weekdays Prager goes on the air.<\/p>\n

…Shortly after his arrival in La Ca\u00f1ada Flintridge, Prager initiated local celebrations of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur in 2008 and 2009 at the La Ca\u00f1ada Flintridge Country Club. The event attracted hundreds, but very few of them locals, he said, and was moved west last year to Studio City.<\/p>\n

Despite a small number of religiously and culturally active Jewish residents in this city, Prager says he is at home here.<\/p>\n

“It has the very best small-town feel,” he says.<\/p>\n

…Q: In one of your recent columns you advocate as fact notions that women are less inclined to excel at math and science and black men are more inclined to commit violent crime.<\/p>\n

A: They are facts. The question is why.<\/p>\n

Q: Many would say that’s sexist and racist.<\/p>\n

A: That’s what, unfortunately, liberal education teaches people \u2014 not to ask, “Is it true?” They ask, “Is it sexist, racist, homophobic, xenophobic?” But they don’t ask, “Is it true?” The left does not pursue truth, it pursues racism and xenophobia. I don’t care if it sounds sexist. I care if it is true. You can’t make a good society based on lies.<\/p>\n

Q: Can you explain why those things are true?<\/p>\n

A: The male brain and female brain are observably different. There are areas wherein each has predilections. It’s not inferior or superior. That’s sexist, to say inferior or superior. But to say “distinct” is a fact, it’s not sexist. I have no mathematical or engineering ability. I don’t think I’m an inferior human being.<\/p>\n

Q: The phrase ‘separate but equal’ comes to mind.<\/p>\n

A: Separate can be equal. We have separate restrooms. I think that’s equal. \u2026 I’m a man but I’m not offended by the fact men are far more likely to commit violent crime. If any of your readers heard there was a shooting at a university, wouldn’t everyone assume it was a man and not a woman? Is it sexist, or is it reality?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
