Young America's Foundation suing University of CA at Berkeley

There’s more to the story than what Berkeley laid out in the self-serving and inventive narrative employed by the school in response to Young America’s Foundation’s letter dated April 20.
When conservative students at Berkeley decided to host Ann Coulter through Young America’s Foundation’s campus lecture program, the school had plenty of notice. But instead of moving forward with event logistics for Coulter’s lecture, Berkeley’s administration chose to play a shell game with conservative students, only to ultimately cancel the event in the eleventh hour and hide behind a heckler’s veto.
As the letter below clarifies, there are multiple venues at Berkeley that would suffice to host Ms. Coulter on April 27. It’s unfathomable that the University has arbitrarily applied restrictions and treated conservatives as second-class members of their community with a selectively-applied curfew.
We’ve encouraged Berkeley to communicate with Young America’s Foundation or its attorney to work out a time for Ms. Coulter to speak on April 27, yet Berkley has unfortunately exhibited an unwillingness to work with conservatives, protect the First Amendment on campus, or simply have an open dialogue. In its insistence to continue violating students’ rights, Berkeley has forced our hand.
Berkeley, we’ll see you in court.

Berkley is about to learn the responsibilities of being a state school, the hard way.

this will be heard by the 9th circuit - right?
the 9th is not well known for actually following or respecting the Constitution
there's a good chance this makes its way to SCOTUS

It's a sad world when a college doesn't do this. Hopefully, this goes to the SCOTUS and we get to see the new Justice in action.

Kennedy won't make it past the summer.
It will be a miracle if Ruth does, as well.

I don't think even the 9th sides with Berkeley.

Don't hold your breath.
There is a reason Progs stack the courts like this.
Also, do not forget the 9th's record.

There is among things libs hold most sacred a right to free speech and protest on college campi. Its a part of their holy trinity. Just don't see even the most radical leftist court supporting the University with what we know so far.

Only if it is speech they agree with. If not, they will violently protest.

You should google some of their past decisions. They are overturned on the next level more than any court in history, I believe.
Progs today are shameless.
Again, I hope you are right, but my Asperger's can't ignore the obvious pattern.

If they refuse to protect the civil rights of all Americans and intend to create a " no- go" zone enforced by a Progressive version of Bull Conner, the Feds should step in , with federal troops if necessary.

The 9th Circuit thinks Somalians have a constitutional right to immigrate to the US.
