Honestly I applaud Berkeley for taking the steps they can take to keep Shapiro safe and not just canceling his speech.

“We have seen extremists on the left and right in our city,” said Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin, a Democrat who backed the police request to use pepper spray. “We need to make sure violence is not allowed.”

They aren't wrong. There has been an unsettling amount of violence among students who take extreme sides and won't even let a person exercise their freedom of speech. Who was it recently, Ann Colture? Who had to cancel an appearance at a university because some snowflakes where threatening the school.

I don't think Berkeley is afraid OF him, I think they are worried FOR him and their students.

Hello bront:

Because this guy has a right to speak, does NOT mean the students should shut up.. Berkeley is the home of the free speech movement and I'm glad to see it still exists..

Was it free speech to take over the campus in 1968?? Some would say it WAS, and some would say it WASN'T.. They didn't LIKE the way their campus was administered THEN, and they don't like it NOW.
