Left-wingers riot, destroy property because a conservative speaker is invited to UC Berkeley

And it's Berkeley, so the rioters get their way.

We talked about this a little bit yesterday, the whole idea that the left deludes itself into thinking it’s winning with stunts like this. Yay. You destroyed the town and silenced the evil right-wing guest speaker. You won! Except that the rest of the nation saw what you did, and wasn’t too impressed.

These are the Occupy thugs organizing a media event as a protest. Their real goal is to intimidate anyone going to these events. Obama and his “community organizers” are planning these while Soros funds them. These are not protesters they are organized criminal thugs.

Wasn’t Berkeley the home of the campus “free speech movement” in the 1960s? New Berkley motto: I may disagree with what you have to say, but I will bend to the will of the Blackshirts who want to silence you.

Headline is a little misleading. The rioters were protesting a homosexual speaker. Just like socialist Hitler acted outagainst Ernst Röhm. So let’s call the protesters what they were - homophobic nazis.

I am about to look for a lawyer to sue the prior administrations.....

Bush and his patriot act...exactly what purpose was that now that the establishment advocates for open borders AND open insurrection against our government.

Tell me again why we passed the Patriot Act????????

BO and his business strangling EOs. All these service businesses suing Trump for vetting incoming foreigners. E.g. Air BNB, saying they are losing business due to Trump. Really??? Seriously??? How many Americans could not use their service because they were struggling to pay their bills and could not afford vacations? Oh, we see their priorities. Traitors, all of them!!!

Does anybody else see the irony in Barack Obama's Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano now overseeing riots in our universities?

Then the taxpayers get the privilege of rebuilding it. Sounds like a winner to me.

Jonah Goldberg on Berkeley Riots: Milo Courts this Stuff, Feeds on it, Has Parasitic Relationship with Violent Mobs (VIDEO)


What happened to Jonah Goldberg? 
He used to be so sensible. Now he sounds like an unhinged leftist.
Good grief.

Jonah Goldberg went on FOX News Thursday morning to discuss the far left violence and rioting last night in Berkeley, California. Last night leftists rioted, started fires, vandalized businesses, robbed ATMs and assaulted conservatives outside the Milo Yiannopoulos speech on the Berkeley campus.

The intolerant left managed to get the speech canceled after the massive destruction and violence.

On Thursday morning Jonah accused Milo Yiannopoulos of

Jonah Goldberg: I think Milo is on cloud nine. He courts this kind of stuff. He feeds on it. He gets much more national exposure. He’s a parasitic relationship with these mobs. I’m sure he’s just delighted by all of it.

That’s just unhinged.

“What happened to Jonah Goldberg?”

Same thing that happened to Bill Kristol, George Will, and Chas. Krauthammer (to some extent).

Liberal elites; not conservative.

Riot, burn, loot and pillage... crush First Amendment rights of others with no fear of arrest or legal sanction by campus or state authorities...

Shall we label that “Progressive Privilege”?
