Free Speech


As has been repeatedly said, it's a sad day for democracy in America when a Conservative, in this case Ann Coulter, is intimidated by lefty brown-shirted Fascists into canceling a speaking engagement at the University at Berkeley in California ... see:  NY Times Article. After a series of obscene threats by the Jack-booted liberal storm troopers, the university's total lack of accommodation for her, and the moonbat mayor of Berkeley's refusal to guarantee her safety and the safety of attendees, Coulter and the Berkeley Right relented and canceled even minimal oratory.

When you have the ACLU, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, at least in form, suggesting that the show should go on, you know that our Constitution is now just "a piece of paper" (an Obama quote) according to those once proponents of  the "Free Speech Movement" ... those erstwhile ragtag radical students at Berkeley.

Obviously, the Chancellor of this University and  the head of the California University System are also culpable for turning their backs on this shameful situation. But the person who should be blamed most is California's Governor, Jerry "Moonbeam" Brown, for his lack of gonads for averting his eyes to this matter. He should have called out the National Guard to insure civil peace before, during and after Coulter's speech. This almost octogenarian fruit bat deserves to be assailed by the national media for his pathetic guttersnipe performance in this matter.

Watch all the major networks tonight to see more on this story?

I think you might be just a tad hysterical when you confuse a few noisy anarchist troublemakers with the tree-hugging Looney Left that you love to mock. "Jack-booted liberal storm troopers" is a tad hyperbolic, don't you think? Coulter should be allowed to speak, and then torn apart by jackals.

OK, they're wearing Birkenstocks ... but they are still Anarchists dressed in black with black masks. BTW, Bill Ayers is apparently also involved ...
