while i dont want people to have to go through anything like the last two hurricanes, perhaps these snowflakes need to go through something like that to get a real perspective on life, and what is important.

If not, where has all the dem leadership been denouncing this crap for the last few years....Nada
A democrat state senator advocated the assasination of Trump. Where is the democrats outrage?
Democrat leaders gave rioters in Ferguson "space" to let off steam and destroy buildings and businesses.
We see riots, violence, disregard for law and order, cops being killed, race baiting, sanctuary given to criminals -- all by democrats.
The Dems anarchy has been going on and on now for a few years and, yes has become typical democrat behavior

You don't honestly expect Berkeley to come out and admit it's liberals that are the source of all of the violence do you? Of course they're going to say "from all sides" when everyone knows the overwhelming majority of it comes from the left.

Antifa is the violent arm of an internet-spawned post-modern 'social justice' movement. Of course there's not one group, this is 2017, everything's decentralized.

They care.

How do we define "them?" How about this: anyone age 16-30 who adamantly believes words are violence (whether or not they themselves would use *actual* violence).

I've been discussing Antifa for over a year now on this forum. Yes, let's talk about other extremist groups too -- I'm all for that.

My point was... Antifa is not the only group who comes to these things. They might care about these political issues, but not all the groups do. There are plenty of non-political ne'erdo-wells who show up just to create chaos.

More than $1!

Why would there be violence just because someone speaks?

This is costing Berkeley more than $600,000 to secure the campus just because of a conservative speaker.....
