Ikner is a registered Republican, according to Florida voter registration records.
Reid Seybold, an FSU student, told CNN he knew Ikner, whom he encountered in an extracurricular political club a few years ago. Seybold said Ikner was asked to leave the group, which discussed current events, due to behavior that unsettled others.
“He had continually made enough people uncomfortable where certain people had stopped coming. That’s kind of when we reached the breaking point with Phoenix, and we asked him to leave,” Seybold told CNN’s Omar Jimenez Thursday.
Seybold said Ikner’s comments went “beyond conservatism.”
“It’s been a couple of years now. I can’t give exact quotes,” he said. “He talked about the ravages of multiculturalism and communism and how it’s ruining America.”

that's called "taking it out of context", genius.
