All I see in that picture are targets. Upside with the Klan is at least they had the courtesy to put the target in the right spot!

She should hire Sheriff David Clarke to round up a posse for protection.

Law enforcement can't guarantee anybody's safety. I think what she means is that law enforcement has no intention to try.

Heckler's veto. Conservatives will use it in retaliation, give it a couple years to gel.

This is Obama’s America and his legacy. A nation at war with itself. Saul Alinsky would be proud.

Hecklers are not the problem, it’s the “violent anarchist-leftard-commie scum veto.” They are willing to riot, and libtard political and university figures are only too happy to collude with them to shut down unwelcome speech.

The main reason is the withdrawal of support from theYAF sponsor.

In other words, the town officials have told the cops to do nothing to prevent the leftists from attacking the normal people.

Isn’t there a large organization of bikers who have helped provide security at soldier’s funerals against the Westboro crazies? Would they be willing to do the same for free speech? I’d love to see something like that happen.

Wait!....The Washington Post is reporting she still plans to go there????????

Coulter said in an email late ‘Tuesday night’ that she plans to arrive at Berkeley sometime after 6 p.m. on Thursday. She said she is still hopeful that Berkeley will provide “an appropriate room” for the event and that she is still unsure when and where she will speak. College Republicans had been discussing the possibility of Sproul Plaza for Coulter’s speech since the university canceled Thursday’s planned event and so far has declined to provide a venue for it on that day.
