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)

They didn’t join the other team. They don’t want the liability for medical and legal costs.

When the game is on, quitting helps the other team.

Why would any conservative speak at Berkeley anyway? IT’S A LOST CAUSE WITH LOST SOULS SUFFERING FROM A LOST ELECTION.

Bananas anyone?

Since the rule of law is on the way out, bananas may be the best investment for the future.

IMHO

This will only further embolden the leftists and they will now become more and more active and the violence will increase...

We all know where this could very lead...

The left will NOT like the outcome of where they are leading the country....

1. I hate the surrender
2. Why bother with the cesspool that is Berkley in the first place.

“Terror works.”

Yes, it’s been proven over and over. This will only embolden them more. Unless our side starts taking on these bullies, they will dominate.

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.
