I guess Irony is too big a word for these people to understand.

Law suits must have brought the Police out in force, this is laughable. Where were the last time, and time before etc.

They cited "very specific intelligence" of threats that could endanger Coulter and students

So engage in pre-emptive arrests against the target of the intelligence. Can't have that now, can we? The punk anti-FA (First Amendment) thugs can conspire with impunity, apparently, actions that would have a RICO suit launched with lightning speed had it been done by a Tea Party group.

From what Reddit was relaying...the idea is to unmask them so they’re exposed.....I agree jut because they don’t want mommie and daddy to see them there..take it off!

Am I to understand that the professionally aggrieved snowflakes are protesting against Ann Coulter because she is NOT speaking?

The protester refused to cooperate with police ..... the Berkley police aren’t messing around today because he was immediately arrested.... the police officer had enough of this protester’s nonsense. Hah!

My understanding is that there are a group of speakers out there reading excerpts from the speech that she planned to give, as well as making other remarks.

“I guess Irony is too big a word for these people to understand.”

Also the word “fascism”————they are idiots with too much time on their hands.

Only a university and faculty/students along with liberal activists would promote demonstrating against a speech that had been cancelled and the speaker not even in the city. You can only assume they cashed soros checks and had to show since they were prepaid. The demonstration against a non-event and no attendees.

What if bags of sugar happened to get dumped into the fuel tanks of those buses? And/or the tires suddenly lost pressure due to a missing valve stem or 6?

I guess that could be considered a shame, huh?
