“Take a look.”
Not even if you paid me.

I must have missed the joke.
You know you’re a real Berkeleyan if you wore birkenstocks to your wedding.
Perhaps there’s good news on the offing in Berkeley. As the university becomes more dominated by Asians, it’ll likely become less radical. Asians mostly just want to study and work hard, get ahead, and provide for their families—and don’t have much of a taste for radicalism.

Redder? It’s hard to be more Red than Berkeley.
Dang, was hoping this was about Bishop Berkeley.
Some people say that if it were not for the Berkeley Wing-nuts on every corner, California would’ve fallen into the ocean already.
Here is the brilliant Bush Administration lawyer John Yoo on living in Berkeley:

"It's like looking at the panoramic displays of troglodytes sitting around the campfire with their clubs. Here, it's tie-dye and marijuana. It's just like the 1960s, with the Vietnam War still to protest."
..."But that doesn't mean I don't like it here," he says.
He is not kidding, and I think he is exactly right. It can be very entertaining to be a conservative in Berkeley.
BERKELEY, Calif. (KCBS) -- One woman was arrested Tuesday as authorities removed some of the structures that have housed tree sitting protesters in an oak grove UC Berkeley wants to cut down to make way for a $125 million athletic facility.
The protester was taken into custody after she reportedly bit one of the workers removing her supplies, according to police. Officers cordoned off part of Piedmont Avenue near Memorial Grove and brought in arborists to remove the platforms and gear the tree sitters have used to maintain their perches since December 2006. A university official had earlier said the tree sitters themselves would not be removed yet.
“One of the things we’re most concerned about is safety and security, of our police officers and the people in the trees. That’s the reason we’re not forcibly removing people from the trees today,” said Dan Mogulof, a spokesman for UC Berkeley.
Tuesday was not the first time the university has removed scaffolding built by the protesters, but removing the people has proven more difficult. One witness told KCBS reporter Tim Ryan at the scene that some of the tree sitters threw urine they had collected in buckets at the police and arborists to discourage them from climbing.

“has a progressive flavor”
Open-air drug dealing, crack whacks begging for money, hookers working the streets in daylight, Bong Shops, Pot Stores...
REAL PROGRESSIVE, there....
Actually, it’s interesting. The food looks good. I mean, I’d like three world class bakeries near me.
Other than that, it seems to be a town of strange people who get off on telling others how to live their lives. As the caption says, for a town of hippies, there sure are a lot of rules.

That place should be quarantined. It is no different in effect than the Ebola virus. Ideas/people there quickly spread throughout the body of society, leading to rapid deterioration of function. The result is fatal to the host of the virus.
Sure, geographically it’s beautiful. So lets take a page from the liberal handbook. Remove everyone and only allow their return if they meet our criteria for occupation. If the unions/libs can do it for jobs, we can do it for homes. They set precedence after all.
The refuse we can send to Detroit.
