Colleges like Berkeley censor Conservative speakers because it is too dangerous?

So lets carry this logic through to it's conclusion. Colleges have been censoring Conservatives speakers supposedly because of fear from Left wing protesters, but they allow Liberal speakers because there is not fear of violence?

So what they are saying is that Liberals are violent anarchists, while Conservatives obey the law. If they are not saying this, they are admitting that they are censoring the free speech of Conservatives.

Either way, it shows what total hypocrites or violent anarchists make up the Left.

Free speech doesn't mean that private colleges are required to pay people of all viewpoints to talk. Institutions get to choose who they pay to speak.

Berkeley is a public school and it's amazing how the hypocritical Left has no problem with censorship of free speech.

The Liberal biased institutions of higher learning are now showing their true colors. They only want free speech when it agrees with them.

They put paintings of Trump's severed head on their University walls!

The Democrat Party and the Left are truly gong off the deep end of radical Liberalism.

Ok, let me clarify then. Do you think that any public institution that hires anyone to speak has to represent every viewpoint? Well, that's obviously impossible, so how do they choose?

And you think that public and private institutions with a conservative leaning are paying liberal speakers to come and speak? This is a serious problem, but it's not about the Democratic party.

"Hey, I have a right to free speech! Why aren't you using your student's money to pay me to come talk to your students right now? This is against the constitution!"

For the 18th straight year, UC Berkeley has been named the nation’s top public university by U.S. News & World Report, with UCLA and Virginia placing second and third respectively. The University of Michigan and the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill rounded out the top five. In all, six University of California campuses, including UC Santa Barbara, UC Irvine, UC San Diego and UC Davis, ranked among the top 11 public universities. UCSF and UC Merced are not included in the category.

UC Berkeley is a private college are you that confused Democrat.
