Short story... The student govt liberals are offended by the conservative student's views. So, they want to confiscate the College Republicans funds and give it to the Black Student Union.

If Berkeley allows that, all federal funding that goes there needs to cease.

Conservative students should file suit alleging conspiracy to deny / violate their civil rights.

It will happen soon enough. The pendulum always swings back the other way.
The greatness will be them not understanding how they can be sued for the same thing they are pissed about. They will literally melt in the streets

My oldest daughter is a UC-Berkeley law grad. (Did her undergraduate work at UNC.) She's married to a producer living out there now.

We rarely speak anymore. She's gone off the deep end and I have my limits of understanding and patience.

What we all should remember though is that there are some very conservative students attending there and they are truly fighting the good fight. It is an everyday battle for those kids and they have little to no protection on any level. They are constantly under attack and things go-on out there in terms of intimidation and harassment that are rarely reported.

Anything I don’t agree with = racist/sexist/homophobic....they’re well in line with the party views. They’ll make excellent lib voters.

What an incredible time in our country! These liberals are taking their bat shite insanity to new levels every day!

Cant wait to run into some of these Turds. Ive been overseas for the last 6 years so missed out on all the fun. Been wearing my MAGA hat everywhere but in Texas so no altercations yet unfortunately.

Just wait until Sessions drops the BOOM on Comey/Lynch/Mueller/Hillary/Obama and the military tribunals start

buckle up

Any case about this should, in theory, be quickly decided because of SCOTUS precedent.


There is a UVA case where a Christian group won the right for funds after being denied them under “separation of church and state” grounds.

SCOTUS pretty much said “Any qualifying group applying for funds is entitled to them regardless of religion.” Especially so in the UVA case because non-Christian religions were amongst the groups getting funding.

In addition, political speech is far more settled, as the state isn’t supposed to be silencing speech. And Berkeley is clearly an agent of the state of California since it is the state uni system as opposed to a private system.

We see stories like this around the country every week, and yet progressives laugh when we claim they are the biggest threat to free speech that exists today.

It really comes from just being immersed in their culture. They always change when they move there. Maybe something in the water. TOo much fluoride?

Sorry to hear that. You should post her pics so we can give an intervention if we see her.

“I believe there are genuine concerns about the legal implications of taking away funding from BCR,” cautioned Senator Taehan Lee.
This concern was echoed by Matthew Lewis, ASUC housing commissioner, who stated that while he disagrees with the College Republicans, he fears the reallocation would result in a lawsuit



I like how their only objection is potential legal ramifications, not the fact that they're silencing dissenting opinions

Much like the UT San Marcos student president impeachment, everyone is expected to virtue signal regardless of their beliefs to cut off reprisals for not being “woke” enough.

Whether the two members believe it is wrong or not is, unfortunately, secondary to not becoming the next targets in that kind of which hunt environment.

The solution from leftists is redistribution of wealth. Who'd a thunk it?

Amanda's indoctrination started at UNC and I fought it as much as possible ... but when she got to UC-Berkeley she went off the deep end. I became her enemy because I was, according to her, so far Right and secondly, I cut off her money to some extent ... let's say I restricted her spending habits and constant needs for new cars.

There is one thing that bothers me about the left more than anything else and it is their lack of respect for families. They believe in tearing apart families and once they have you in their grasp they are very cultish. They demand financial support through unlimited donations to unlimited left wing causes. It shocks me how many well-to-do liberals have budgeted large, monthly, donations to various liberal causes.
