Ann Coulter cancels her speech at UC Berkeley
Reuters ^ | 4/26/2017

April 26 (Reuters) - Conservative commentator Ann Coulter has canceled her speech planned for this week at the University of California's Berkeley campus after a dispute with university officials, who feared violent protests, over whether a safe venue could be found.

"There will be no speech," she wrote in an email to Reuters on Wednesday, saying two conservative groups sponsoring her speech were no longer supporting her. "I looked over my shoulder and my allies had joined the other team," she wrote. (Reporting by Mark Hosenball in Washington and Jonathan Allen in New York)

I’d like an orange football helmet with MAGA logos on each side.

UC Berkeley! Our nation’s bastion of free speech, California’s premiere `marketplace of ideas’.

America’s educational crown jewel ... but all they offer is lefty gruel.
It’s enough to make a murder of crows blush, but not the Democrats. What are these frightened sheep so afraid of?
Veritas?

Terror works.

In college, maybe. I wonder what they'll put on their CVs when they graduate?

Ummm, the ‘other team’ IS a mob of cowards... so Ann’s right. They joined the other team.

If they were too cowardly to follow through, they should have never started it. “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” People thinks it’s dangerous now???? This is as easy as it will ever be. Every tomorrow that comes will be more dangerous than the last.

She can’t do it if the cowards won’t give her a venue.

“She can’t do it if the cowards won’t give her a venue.”

________________________________________________________

She certainly shouldn’t do it outside, where she is completely unprotected from some crazed leftist with a gun or rifle.

She could only do it in a venue where people are either frisked or go through metal detectors, IMO.

Pretty sad state of affairs that it has come to this.

What? With all due respect, I think the President is focusing on the unimportant stuff, you know, like North Korea. /s

Right. I can't imagine Trump/Sessions having the nerve to do this.

What this reveals is that the other side is much more willing to put their necks on the line for what they believe than we are.

What does it say about our society that, in anticipation of the event, video "news" clips of the "preparation" consisted of several so-called men gathering large stones from landscaping, light enough to throw, but heavy enough to kill...?

And both the police, and the "neutral" news industry thought that doing their job consisted in merely watching the killers prepare for the slaughter.

How long will Trump and Sessions allow this lawlessness at Berkeley to continue? There must be something they can do to force the PD to do its job or federalize the national guard to patrol the streets and guarantee the law. Do something!!!

Maybe she had some inside info into the NORK’s first nuclear target.
