Berkeley Kristallnacht
3rd February 2017
The New York Times sums it up.
Fires burned in the cradle of free speech. Furious at a lecture organized on campus, demonstrators wearing ninja-like outfits smashed windows, threw rocks at the police and stormed a building. The speech? The university called it off.
…
More than 100 faculty members signed a letter opposing the visit by Mr. Yiannopoulos in recent weeks. “We support robust debate, but we cannot abide by harassment, slander, defamation, and hate speech,” they wrote.
So instead they support harassment, slander, defamation, and hate speech. Smooth move, guys.
