| [American Thinker] The new Mayor of Berkeley, Jesse Arreguin, made a fool of himself on Twitter both in the run up to and the aftermath of the riots that denied First Amendment rights to Milo Yiannopoulos and the many students who bought tickets to his sold-out speaking engagement at the University of California. The rookie mayor, now in a national spotlight, bears some responsibility for signaling the rioters that their attack is understandable because, as he put it in a tweet just a couple of hours before the event was scheduled to begin, "Hate speech isn’t welcome in our community." |
