#1 I approve of President Trump's rhetorical question.

#3 Funny how a vigorous and political enforcement of Title IX was acceptable during the Obama years. Now "interference" is an anathema?

#5 Against the wishes of some faculty and students alike Berkley very publicly announced they would allow the event to proceed. In anticipation of a protest University administration called in personel from other campuses, coordinated with local LE, and beefed up security overall. They also provided a separate area for protesters away from the event.
Two questions; 1. How did the campus "not allow free speech"? 2. How does the threat of witholding federal funds prevent future riots?

Good thing, too. All of UC Berkeley might have gone up in flames. Pity about the Starbucks. Such a progressive company. And that young lady who got pepper-sprayed. Maybe she should've worn something a bit less provocative, like a "pussy hat".

Oh, and the speech being cancelled. But that was the point, wasn't it, dearie?

#7 0Pappy.

Hey no. There is "Tech Berkeley" but the "women Studies Berkeley" and similar crap has to go.

#10 It's my understanding that about 150 professional agitators were brought in and did most of the damage. If so, the police should have just nabbed these communists/anarchists and it would all have evaporated. But they were told to stand down, of course. I kinda wonder if Soros or some other knowing liberal may have had a hand in that decision somehow.

#11 Word should go out "if the local LEOs don't show, ATF attached to DHS will..."
