Conservative’s Speech Cancelled At UC Berkeley Over “Security Concerns”…
[Image: 8wczs2.jpg]

You can pretty much guarantee they would spare no expense to ensure a liberal be allowed to speak. The left's attack on free speech is the best example these days at how anti-American libs are these days.

Quote:BERKELEY (KPIX 5) — There’s another challenge to free speech on the Cal campus.

College Republicans say they were forced to cancel a conservative speaker because of too many administration roadblocks.

But some are concerned about the cancellation.

The university’s efforts to prevent an encore of the violent protests that forced them to cancel a talk by conservative activist Milo Yiannopoulos, have, according to campus Republicans, stifled free speech and made it increasingly difficult to bring conservative thinkers to Cal.

Berkeley Campus Republicans spokesperson Troy Worden said, “There is such a thing as the heckler’s veto. Basically, if they’re loud enough and violent enough, then they succeed in shutting down your event.”

Campus Republicans canceled an upcoming appearance by David Horowitz after university police told them that to insure they could provide adequate security…the event would have to be held in the middle of the day…and outside the center of campus.

UC Berkeley spokesperson Dan Mogulof said, “We’re sorry they had to cancel it. It has nothing to do whatsoever with the speaker’s perspective and everything to do with what law enforcement professionals believed needed to be done to provide a safe and secure event.”

In this war on campus free speech from the left, I would've taken what I could get and made it a point. Don't cancel the event, but go ahead and have it on the edge of campus, during the day amid a visible police presence to show what was necessary in order to have a conservative speaker discuss his opinions.

So this is what it means to have a campus "safe space."

What is wrong with the leftists? If you don't like it do not go the event. I don't like chick flicks and sit coms so I don't them.

Liberals seem to think that the left is “the resistance”.

No. Liberals are the establishment.

The millions of Americans who came out to toss the anointed Hillary Clinton out of public life are "the resistance." The Democrat Party is the one being resisted across this country.

Exactly. Conservatism is the new counter-culture.

LMAO... just reading the Antifa website that is talking about this dangerous group of alt-right speakers! They said this:

"She will be appearing with a whole line-up of Alt Right figures, including AltRight.com contributor Brittany Pettibone. Pettibone is known for her “White Genocide” and Pizzagate conspiracy theories, as well as nationalist and traditionalist politics. She said that these “values that once made Western Civilization great, including but not limited to the glorification of the nuclear family, motherhood, masculinity, femininity, etiquette, traditional gender roles and love of one’s own culture, race and country.” She now writes under Richard Spencer’s new website, cementing her in the world of white nationalism."

Interesting that on a college campus of all places, libs cry anti-fascism and yet practice suppression and control tactics that are, well, fascist. Send in Bikers For Trump!

You 04-jawdrop but that is antifa in a nutshell. Bunch of losers that can't hack it under the traditions and values that make America great, so they wish to destroy it to bring everyone down to their level. It's delusional thinking, but consider the source.

It is amazing to me that there could be a large number of people out there who think that motherhood, masculinity, femininity, etiquette, traditional gender roles and love of one's own culture, race, and country are BAD things.... my God.

Etiquette is bad? Love of country is bad? Motherhood is bad? 04-jawdrop

For the modern American liberal, motherhood, masculinity, femininity, etiquette, traditional gender roles and love of one's own culture, race, and country means another liberal of a different color or sexual orientation with the same liberal opinions.

These antifa dopes think only this when talking about motherhood, masculinity, femininity, etiquette, traditional gender roles and love of one's own culture, race, and country VVVV

They have never been required to pay a price.

And I mean "pay a price" in very broad terms. They never had to work for anything as everything has been handed to them.

They are the millennials whose bedroom shelves are filled with participation trophies; who were told over and over how special they are; who have attended schools where an "A" is the default grade and where teachers have indoctrinated that anyone who disagrees with them is hateful.

So they find something to rage against. Ya know, so they can be one of the cool kids.

I just don't think silencing dissenting opinion is the way to go about liberalism, but whatever.

You can be liberal and be willing to listen and debate. That's what "open-minded" people are supposed to do. Somewhere along the line, a lot of movements that were once great things got hijacked and derailed from their original purpose.

It's funny because as I get more liberal over time, I'm also getting more disgusted with those on the left.

I'd posit one question to these fools:

Who would, do you, trust to protect your rights outlined in our Constitution?

Guarandamntee we'd see a bunch of semi-literate fools mumbling nonsense.

Socialism isn't bad, we just haven't done it right, just yet. 07-coffee3
