Conservative journalist Ben Shapiro was set to speak at the radically liberal University of Berkeley on Thursday where police would be present to deal with any violence from rioters. And since Berkeley was rapidly becoming anathema to free speech, Shapiro appeared on S.E. Cupp Unfiltered on Monday where he and the host raked Berkeley over the coals for being so ridiculous.

“University of California Berkeley once prided itself as being the birth place of the free speech movement. But over the last several years it's increasingly abandoning that legacy in favor of trigger warnings and safe spaces,” quipped Cupp as she introduced the segment.

In reading from a statement released by the university provost, Cupp demonstrated just how out of touch the liberal university was:

In a memo posted to the university's website, Berkeley Provost Paul Alivisatos wrote without any irony: ‘We are deeply concerned about the impacts some speakers may have on individual sense of safety and belonging. No one should be made to feel threatened or harassed simply because of who they are or what they believe.’ Except Ben Shapiro apparently.

Only a hidden agenda makes a person go so far to oppose Trump.

The response to sexual distractors on this thread is very telling.

I beg to differ

Enjoying women in bikinis is a yuge facet of being a man

And for me, I speak as one tested, not one giving the test to others.

Ben Shapiro is a douche nozzle who is against all of us who voted for Trump. He thought he would be more popular under a Hillary Presidency and is still upset that Trump won.

Both Cupps and Ben are fairly Jewish I think.....they don’t believe in salvation like us

But by all means pray for them

I hope God will forgive my appreciation of pretty women even in bikinis

I consider myself saved not blind

I admire your asceticism but we’re just trying out here

I’m right there with you, nothing to admire about me, my eyes do the same thing yours do.

But we know our eyes are lying, and that the spirit leads the flesh.

Here’s how it happens for me.

I tell the Good Lord I want to please him, not please myself, and then he puts just enough distance between me and the bikinis. lol
