Democratic California Sen. Dianne Feinstein defended the University of California, Berkeley at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday, and suggested colleges shouldnt have to accommodate controversial speakers.
The hearing was sparked by countless free speech violations on college campuses across the country, where conservative speakers are often shouted down by leftist protesters, physically assaulted or in some instances prevented from speaking at all.
...

Well the only problem with that, is that Republicans are now controversial speakers. In fact I would think there are probably a few democrats that are controversial speakers.
Screw that bitch.
Every time I hear about her, I think she should be depicted standing upon the dead bodies of George Moscone and Harvey Milk, as those very corpses gave her her entire political career.
Speechless
Goebbels would have loved her.
And got her a concealed carry permit
Can’t have people interfering with the liberal brainwashing, eh?
No, thank you.
Her George Wallace moment on the University steps...
I meant it metaphorically.
Wouldn’t want you to run the risk of hypothermia of the male parts (at best), or running afoul of vagina dentata (at worst). :P
When CW II happens, and patriots go into California to clean it out, which card in the deck of cards will Pelosi be?
Queen of Hearts?
(Assuming we have a deck of cards like the ones given out for the invasion of Iraq)
Did I say Pelosi? I meant Feinstein.
I sometimes get my Quislings mixed up.
When University administrators are unable to protect the rights of speakers, they should ask President Trump to “pull an Ike” and send in federal troops or the National Guard. I’ll bet he would honor the request.
The university MUST take on the responsibility of allowing all speakers. The state MUST back them on this.
Either that or no speakers are allowed.
There is no other solution. All or none.
Finestein must go, or change.
You took an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution so help you God Ms. Feinstein.
The goal is to prevent normal people from speaking. This is just an excuse.
So universities can block left-wing or gay speakers if they choose.
according to our senator who swore to uphold the constitution
Lord help the Democrats if college students hear anything that might cause them to question their political brainwashing.
