Antifa shuts down Young America’s Foundation @ Berkeley Police Stand Down

I wonder if Coulter will go there anyway.

University of California Police Department at Berkeley has an official ‘stand-down’ policy for any situation that develops on campus as long as the situation doesn’t involve the imminent loss of life

That could work both ways. Send in the "baws".

No... not when the invitation has been effectively pulled.

Not so fast.

Coulter said in an email late Tuesday night that she plans to arrive at Berkeley sometime after 6 p.m. on Thursday. She said she is still hopeful that Berkeley will provide “an appropriate room” for the event and that she is still unsure when and where she will speak. College Republicans had been discussing the possibility of Sproul Plaza for Coulter’s speech since the university canceled Thursday’s planned event and so far has declined to provide a venue for it on that day.

Sproul Plaza, site of the Free Speech Movement protests in the 1960s, would be both symbolic and logistically challenging for the university because anyone can be there.

This is why I chuckle when Progs say they don't support these actions.

Why do you keep electing officials who you know do? Why do you keep electing officials who use this rhetoric?

Yup. No different than "moderate" Muslims.

So basically they're getting paid, with benefits and a pension, for doing nothing. Just like politicians? Wait a minute!!..I thought they respond to claims of "hate speech", or "racism"? Where is the "eminent loss of life" there??

how the antifa people can look in the mirror and think they're not facists at this point is mindboggling.

So they have a policy that lets protesters do anything they want except kill someone? Sounds like a recipe for peaceful demonstrations.

Berkeley cops are a bunch of Keystone Cops.

Yesterday, their Chief said they are avoiding having to use violence to stop any fights because there are innocent peaceful protesters standing just a few feet away from protesters who are fighting with Free Speech supporters and those peaceful protesters could get hurt if the cops have to use violence to stop the fighting.

Yeah, I agree with that. Berkeley should be besieged with Free Speech advocates . I'd go myself but I have to stay in Baton Rouge for the race riots this weekend. So many choices.
