I’m disappointed in Ann. The worse that the anarchists would do is throw their own poo at her. They can’t, and don’t, carry guns.

More like a skateboard across the face.

They've already shown they are violent and willing to resort to such tactics.

I have mixed feelings about this whole thing.

We will see if the same tactic works elsewhere when Ann has another scheduled speaking gig. Since the precedent has been set by Cal-Berkley, other colleges can point to this incident and say that Coulter is a lightening rod for violence and should be banned from speaking to protect the students and the university.

Ultimately, Ann was the bravest one of all. I’m sorry conservatives backed down. She can’t walk into that mob all by herself. The Left won again.

What ever happened to the tens of thousands of cool bikers across the USA that supported Trump and would be glad to protect Ann Coulter?

“Apparently, YAF is for freedom only if it doesn’t involve any sort of struggle or risk. If they are they and the College Republicans are the future of conservatism in this country we are doomed.”

Following the road paved by the GOP Congress since 2010. Capitulation is the answer to any opposition.

If we gave back what they dished out, things would settle up pretty quickly.

And that is EXACTLY what needs to happen. Unfortunately, it won't, but I don't believe it has anything to do with restraint or civility.

Let's face it - the anti-American leftist liberal scum really have nothing to lose. So they get arrested, who cares? It only means they don't spend a couple nights in their parent's basement. A handful of them might miss a few classes, but their professors will make up for that by seeing to it they get A's for the activism. It's not like the vast majority of them have jobs or any level of real world responsibility, either.

On the other hand, our side has jobs, mortgages, car payments and kids to feed and clothe. We have toys and big screen TV's and booze to drink while watching the "big game". The very moment we make a stand - if we get arrested or something along those4 lines - well, our ability to continue our current lifestyles immediately goes away, and we're too chickensh!t to let that happen.

Then as now, U.C. Berkeley, the epicenter center for Mario Savio’s “Free Speech” movement of the ‘60’s, is REALLY about the freedom of the Left to prevent others from speaking.

And until we are ready to meet their violence with our own, they will continue to win.

To the Left, “freedom” means the freedom of the Left to shut up, lock up, or kill anyone who disagrees with them.

Kinda like the “freedom of choice” - “My Body, My Choice” - in the Leftist “women’s movement”. To them, “freedom to choose” means freedom to kill their babies.

Today’s Left is the harbinger of the end times and the horror that will soon be unleashed on the whole world.

These leftist thugs seem to be dictating things in my neck of the woods.

So I take it, Ann Coulter doesn’t consider this caving to the left as she would if President Trump did it.

The terrorists won again.

Fixed that for you.

Man, I just don’t know how long the libs can keep on winning before they die of happiness. This is getting ridiculous.

If the group inviting her backs out, I don’t see that she has any choice

Yet another victory for the left. They are starting to roll on to absolute control as the left acts the right talks. By the way the left is systematically dismantling Fox.

The only way things are going to stop getting worse is if we arrest Obama and several hundred of his worst co-conspirators.

They can’t, and don’t, carry guns.


That doesn’t mean that they won’t in the future or have them ready now. Don’t ever underestimate the enemy. You’ll die. They are very dangerous and ruthless.
