Ann Coulter is exploiting UC Berkeley, safety be damned
Sacramento Bee ^ | April 24, 2017 | Editorial Board

Posted on 04/24/2017 6:17:51 PM PDT by artichokegrower

Sixteen days into the spring semester and three months before the current furor over Ann Coulter, 150 or so masked outsiders swarmed onto the University of California, Berkeley, campus and turned a peaceful protest there into a riot.

Since Sacramento is so close to San Francisco, undoubtedly, a large number of homosexuals work there. Homosexuals are directly working to shut down Christianity in this country. Ann Coulter represents more of the righteousness they hate.

Governor Brown needs to send in the California Guard and secure the safety of all involved.

Gov. Moonbeam won't do that. Pres. Trump needs to send in the army as Pres. Lincoln had to send in the army during the draft riots. Maybe there should be a repitition of what I saw in that "Gangs of New York" movie.

And if someone gives me posse commitatus (sp), there is precedent with Clinton and Reno at Waco (burn babies burn).

The best way to prevent problems is to expect the children at Berkeley to behave themselves.

I don't think that the Sacramento Bee should be allowed to be printed on Thursdays because I am easily offended on that day.

LOL - good one grower...

So Berkley is a “Sanctuary from free speech” and needs to have it’s federal funding eliminated until free speech is permitted per the constitution.

These turds don’t know that the free speech movement started in 1776, not 1968.

This was written by “The Editorial Board”? And they don’t understand that this is about freedom of speech and the free exchange of ideas? And how Brown Shirts are preventing this through violence and threat of violence? Are these people delusional?

It’s hard to believe a major newspaper would openly editorialize against free speech. And with a blame-the-victim logic.

“In the meantime, though, it is clear that UC Berkeley sorely needs a clear, coherent policy on scheduling and securing celebrity appearances.”

Actually, it seems they need a policy to keep invited guests safe and free to partake in their visit.

Scary stuff, and fits PERFECTLY what Stalin once said when asked why he no longer supports freedom of speech.

Stalin stated (to the effect): “Yes, I did support free speech, but that was when I was in the opposition.”

God help us if we cannot get people like these editors out of positions of power.

Sorry, he's busy commanding an Antifa cell.

Don’t bother commenting on anything in the Sacramento Bee, I don’t believe anyone reads it. They will not stay in business much longer, they are losing readers at an ever accelerating pace.

SacBee blaming the victim.
You would think that a business that relies on freedom of speech would support the victim, but alas some animals are more equal than others.

The debate, given the escalating violence these past few months, is over how to make sure no one gets hurt or killed in the process...we tried to get Martin Luther King Jr and his followers to change their time and venue so that there wouldn't be such a threat of violence, but they insisted they needed to be heard as scheduled and expected by their intended audience - if anything happens it's on them for being so pig-headed and uncooperative......
