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

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.

Stopped reading this piece of bilge right here: The occasion, beyond fear and rage at President Donald Trump’s assumption of office, was a planned appearance by Milo Yiannopoulos, the celebrity alt-right hatemonger.

The SackOfShitBee was bad when I first came across it in the early 70’s, but, by God, it is now a totally anti-American, batshit crazy rag run by leftist pukes, and I’m being very kind to them.

What would they say if a bunch of Black Bloc anarchists and communists tried to prevent them from publishing their paper? Oh, we’ll publish it in a “safe space” somewhere.

What a bunch of anti-First Amendment cowards the SacBee editors are. Peter Wenger is spinning in his grave.

Coulter, Yiannopoulos and the extremists around them don’t want free speech; they want a taxpayer financed forum for political theater, even if it hurts people and puts 40,000 kids at risk.

Of course the antifa have noooothing to do with people getting hurt.

Didn't you know that Coulter is a Kung-Fu Master assassin and Milo's other job is as a Mafia hitman? /s

Yes because exercising free speech is so deadly nowadays. It’s all the speakers fault for the danger. Maybe re-thinking that causation - correlation beyond one’s own bigotry and bias is in order.

How can something of no intrinsic value be exploited? Anyone with an I.Q. larger than there shoe size realizes UC Berkley does not contribute anything to the productive human race

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

Exactly. And defend and encourage the thugs who silence free speech and the free exchange of ideas with violence.

Speak truth to delusion, and it will get you killed--or beaten--or whatever it takes to silence you.

Of Antifa: “They startle easily, but they’ll be back, and in greater numbers”.
