A caller named Rick dialed into WWL's Newell Normand show and tried to go toe-to-toe with him on topics including affirmative action, transgender athletes, and more.
"I know you want to try to skew the conversation," Rick said, as a fiery Normand went off on topics about race and gender, including whether it's OK to hold Black or Jewish-only graduation celebrations -- or to have student housing that's open only to a specific minority group.
Rick argued it was a figment of Normand's imagination.
Harvard, Columbia, Penn State and more are holding graduation ceremonies for Black graduates only, Normand said "so don't tell me it's a figment of my imagination."
The topic moved on to transgender athletes, which are a "problem that doesn't exist" in Louisiana, Rick said, going on to accuse Normand of looking for problems that don't exist. "There's not one in Louisiana, hasn't been one, not before that law was passed or since," he said, adding "we're going to make a law affecting five people?"
Normand said it's not fair for women to compete in athletics against anyone who was born a man. "So, whether it's one, three, five seven or nine, it's not fair to change the rules and have females competing against males."
