Controversial Speaker Ann Coulter to Appear at UC Berkeley Months After Fiery Protest
KNTV ^ | 3/29/17 | Gillian Edevane

Conservative commentator Ann Coulter is set to appear at UC Berkeley on April 27 as part of a series of talks on immigration, just three months after a campus visit by disgraced Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulos was cancelled amid fiery, violent protests.

Berkeley College Republicans, one of the campus groups behind the speaking engagement, confirmed the visit to NBC Bay Area on Tuesday.

"The Berkeley College Republicans have invited Ms. Coulter to speak at UC Berkeley because she has been one of the most vocal critics of illegal immigration in all its manifestations and was one of the earliest supporters of President Trump, from when he initially announced his candidacy down to the present day,” said Naweed Tahmas, a spokesperson for the campus group.

Berkeley College Republicans is working with Young America’s Foundation, a conservative organization that regularly sponsors university appearances, to iron out the details, and with BridgeCal, a nonpartisan campus group that sprung up after the Yiannopoulos fiasco.

Get ready for Democrats to burn something else at UC Berkeley. Just another reason for the terrorists to come out of the woodwork

So Ann is “controversial” and Milo is “disgraced”.

Good to know the writer is hiding her biases as much as she can.

Undoubtedly they will go full Nazi again. We are the Jews to the lefts Nazi, so a Jew conservative is giving a speech and no doubt once again the usual brownshirts will take action to silence Ann being that she is not part of the lefts master race...

Careful, Ann. Berkeley may have changed since you’ve last been over here. It has grown claws, fangs and become selectively blind.
Actually, I’m surprised UC Berk has agreed to allow her to visit.

I predict hysteria, rioting, property damage, and injuries (I hope to to the liberals).

Controversial only to the moonbat snowflakes who waste their parents money pretending to study there and the libtard “professors” who “teach” there.

Soros funded anarchists are training and gearing up for the show right now.

How is Ann Coulter controversial?

Other than the Pinkos don’t like her (which I guess is the modern meaning of the word)

Prediction: they’ll be pretty kittens now. They [the infamous they] know they didn’t make good news and the powers to be over them are going to be wanting money from Trump.

She better be prepared to scrap then.By scrapping she better get ready to stick one of her long fingernails into an attacker’s head cavity through his nostril. Or stick a fingernail into an attacker’s eye socket and flip his eyeball on the ground. That place is not for those faint of heart as the lady that was pepper sprayed learned the hard way.

I see a clear strategy here for eliminating at least one bastion of liberal academia: Keep inviting conservative speakers to campus, and it won’t be long before the leftist idiots have burned the campus to the ground.

Berkeley University started out as “Berkeley Divinity School”, hard to believe.
