The University of California, Berkeley is likely to once again be the site of brutal protests on Thursday as questions arise about whether the city’s mayor has ties to an extremist group sparking violence.
Ann Coulter has vowed to move ahead with a planned appearance at the university, despite Berkeley trying to reschedule her speech over security concerns. Law enforcement sources told Fox News that regardless of whether the conservative firebrand shows up, there is a “99 percent” chance that the college will erupt in violence.

Been reading that she has cancelled.
The KKK began as the after-hours branch of the Democratic party. Ditto violent trade unions. The Berkeley mayor’s connections to the current mob of violent thugs is just the latest chapter in an honored tradition.
Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin is just about the dimmest bulb ever to hold office.
The first Latino Mayor, he tweeted before the riot, “Using speech to silence marginalized communities and promote bigotry is unacceptable. Hate speech isn't welcome in our community.” His “community” then set about making sure that speech he said “isn’t welcome” didn’t happen. Once his Brown Shirts took his words to heart and started a riot, he chimed in with, “Violence and destruction is not the answer.”
“Law enforcement sources told Fox News that regardless of whether the conservative firebrand shows up, there is a “99 percent” chance that the college will erupt in violence...”
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. If someone is dumb enough to riot and loot over a conservative talking, I hope they get a proper beat down by anyone that has property damaged. Hope Officer Friendly doesn’t hold back either.
Even Mr. Magoo could see this rioting exactly for what it is. It needs to be stopped.
OK, I read this morning that she had cancelled for real. Another FReeper said that she had never intended to appear, just to stir the pot, get attention and sell more books. Is she doing it or not?
She really should sue Berkeley and the university for denying her her civil right to speak. If Muslim and Palestinian extremists have that right, so should she.
Maybe the rest of America will be fortunate and the Democrat terrorists will burn Berkeley to the ground in the frothing throws of their latest tantrum.
Don't stop with this Mayor, the entire State of California has the dumbest bunch of communists leaders who have destroyed the State. Governor Moombeam is the perfect example of a fool beyond the level of a moron.
No question......the land of fruits and nuts.
Isn’t there a group called “Bikers For Trump” that could attend?
Have y’all seen this? Hilarious attack on the ANTIFA thug of Berkeley.
Ann cancelled because even the 2 backer organizations now are on the school’s side to cancel. See Drudge!
=======================================================
["Police and university officials said they were still preparing for possible violence and protests whether Coulter comes to campus or not. In an email to The Associated Press, Coulter said that despite the event's cancellation she might decide to turn up anyway.
"I have my flights, so I thought I might stroll around the graveyard of the First Amendment," Coulter said in an emailed message when asked if she was still coming to Berkeley.]
