    Can't really expect free speech in places like that.

    Dumb people being violent due to others having different opinions than those they hold, the effect of liberalism.

    a college campus is the least likeliest place in the country to find free speech

    I love how the reporters try to call what is by any definition a riot a "protest"

    spoiled children destroying their taxpayer-funded campus, idiots

    Looks like they are doing some good work out there in Berkeley. Calmly making their point of view known. Keep it up boys!

    so the difference between what happened at Berkley and Trump's government is that at Berkley people are allowed to tweet the truth about the goings on. Trump's govt. orders the Tweets to be shut down.

    RIP free speech.

    RL has a hate speech compulsion. Any time some scumbag like Milo or Ben Shapiro want to use a college campus as a platform for their hateful bullshit it's the death of free speech if anyone rejects it. Same tired crap over and over again. So boring.

    Why is it always the left that is shutting down speech, rallies and event? When was the last time conservatives shut down an event because they didn't agree with a guest's political view?

    By what metric do you classify Ben Shapiro as a "scumbag"? He has a nasal voice I cannot stand to listen to and was an anti-Trumper so I never had much time for him. But scumbag?

    I don't like you spreading hate speech on bbs so I will reject by finding your house and start fire on the lawn.

    Anyone who normalizes this kind of behavior or starts making excuses for them is a sack of ****. No question asked!

    They've tried many times. Just look at what happened in Texas at the 2015 Muslim Capitol Day. Of course that is free speech too.

    What isn't free speech is Trump shutting down twitter accounts of govt. agencies when people tweet things he doesn't like.
