“Why would anyone even want to step foot in Berkeley?”

I’m thinking of going to support the Coulter speech. It’s less than 2 hours from home.

There is nothing liberal about the Leftists.

I guess they are liberal about spending my money, but besides that...

Its the epicenter now because the cops refuse to keep the groups from fighting in the middle of the streets. They much on donuts while both sides get bloody and bashed right in front of them.

You wouldn’t need that great a talent to handle them. I am more inclined to let the pups have at them for a few minutes.

Told to David Horowitz in the 60’s: “The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.”

Berkeley was where the Pro-Palestinian, Anti-Israel movement began.

Much bias in that headline?

More appropriate would be How Berkeley became epicenter of violent anti-Trump Assaults

Trump needs to tell California and Berkley to get control of he will use the Army to do it. See how they like that “deal.”

To clean it up as Governor Reagan did.

Thanks. What I’ve observed for 50 years, backs that up.

I don’t know about firearms, but I think these little jerks need some real men to beat the stuffings out of them a few times.

Peaceful Protesters don’t wear full head masks, only people who have intent to do crimes.

I guess they learned from the KKK.

Maybe someone with photoshop skills can do a side by side comparison and have it go viral.

If I was there I'd single out one at a time, pull off their mask, have someone record it, and post them all on youtube.

Berkeley students arrive on campus thinking they’re already legends, or soon will be.

Riding the school’s history, they show up to become professional disruptors with a degree in it.

These days, the meaning of “epicenter” has been expanded beyond the use in describing earthquakes, so, actually, the usage is not in error her.

It still has to mean “above the center,” otherwise there’s no reason not to just call it the “center.”

It’s like people using “penultimate” to mean the absolute top. Just because people misuse it doesn’t make it right!

rant over, I’ll go back to my hole now

All American Corporations should publically state that they will NOT HIRE ANY BERKLEY GRADUATES.

Why would anyone even want to step foot in Berkeley?

I could think of a lot of good reasons. Americans used to march towards the sound of guns. Now too many choose to run and hide. Fortunately, a whole lot of Californians chose not to flee and headed behind enemy lines, right into the belly of the beast. Bravo!

Lauren Southern was at the rally this weekend and did an interview with Stefan Molyneux on Youtube.

She described Berkeley as being an extremely weird place, almost not even like America.

She said it looked like the headquarters of a cult.

Which is pretty much the modern American Left and Democrat Party: a cult.
