UC Berkeley cancels Milo Yiannopoulos event amid violent protest (RIOT) - 2/1 - LIVE

I guess it's hard to kick too much ass with skinny jeans and limp wrists.

Milo is definitely a provocateur/agitator. People shouldn't be cheering him on. There seems to be a concerted effort on both those representing the left and those representing the right to cause civil war and that should concern all.

God forbid we use words to agitate people.

 

[angelatc]

I agree with this statement. Milo is a blowhard who likes to hear himself talk, and he tries to get these kinds of reactions of out people. He's not trying to conduct peaceful debate, or raise awareness to certain issues at all.

The fact that the these morons can cause that kind of damage and get away with it is astounding, but also astounding how so many people are caught up enough in identity politics that they're willing to support Milo just because of the way these students behaved.

I do not know if I support Milo but I support everybody's right to speak freely. That includes the KKK, the Black Panthers, the Communists, and the Libertarians.

So put me on that list.

You called it wrong on Trump losing like 5 times. I will sleep well knowing he is going to win this cinfrontation with communist aswell.

That is true, there is a quote I would like to share with you "you can never underestimate the stupidity of the general public". I made the fatal error of underestimating the stupidity of the general public and I will never live that event down. It would follow me around on this forum until the day this forums shuts down.

The irony of the quote I posted is that the person who is credited with making this quote actually supported Donald Trump. This also goes to show that even a stupid person wins sometimes. Well, he went from supporting Hillary to Bernie to Trump. So we can tell he is not the sharpest tool in the shelf, but he had one hell of a quote which I would gladly use to bash him in the head along with all the Trump supporting, Milo dick riders on this forum.

If students would major in stuff that's hard like engineering they wouldn't have time for protests.

This is another misconception about universities. Go to any graduating ceremony in any of these major universities and pick up the little book with the list of the graduating students from each department and you will see that departments like engineering, biology, physics, chemistry, business admin, accountancy, education etc still account for over 90% of the graduating class. We all hear about gender studies, race studies etc etc but those are just small small fraction of the people that graduate from these universities.

Believe me, if they have time to go to the stadiums and watch football every other Saturday, they have time to go out and protest when there is no football on campus. Also put into consideration this happened before mid terms when most people are still maintaining their A grades. This is happening because Trump is very unpopular and Milo is a vile, Trump supporting, degenerate, shit stirrer who is going there to provoke people.

I am supporting any violence or property destruction but at the same time, I would not put anything on the line to defend him.

FTFY. Check out my post earlier in this thread. This was all a choreographed money-game.

At UC Berkeley, L&S Social Sciences Division (The 12 departments that comprise the Social Sciences Division — African American Studies, Anthropology, Demography, Economics, Ethnic Studies, Geography, Gender and Women’s Studies, History, Linguistics, Political Science, Psychology and Sociology )
Is by far the largest division/school of graduates. More than double the next closest school: Social Services: 2230.8, L&S Administered Programs: 848 (and this is really a hodgepodge of areas of study)
http://opa.berkeley.edu/degrees_awarded

So yeah, sounds like a crap load of gender studies, race studies, etc graduates coming from this fine institution.

The masks are coming off and people are being exposed for what they truly are.

Isn't this a nice sight to see?

Trolling should be forbidden?

Yea, but you will want to see the breakdown. I have attended graduation ceremonies at UTD, Loyola in Chicago, NWMSU, Boston College, my 2 different degrees etc etc and when you actually look at the break down of the departments, you would see that the gender/race studies are barely represented in the final count.

Btw, do you know that the 2nd most popular major of people going to medical school is psychology? But technically, someone would look at it and just dismiss the degree because it is under social sciences. I have been to way too many graduations and it is something I try to look at when I am there. I am here to tell you that this idea that universities and graduating hordes of social science and humanity majors is a myth.

I don't agree with all Milo says, but I approve of his methods. He can agitate whoever the hell he wants to. He is proving that the left pays lip service to free speech and tolerance. I say keep trolling, Milo

Yea, whatever shenanigan they are play, I want no part of it. Tar and feather the a**hole for all I care. I will wash my hands off him and stay the hell away from this train wreak.

I saw this on Facebook and thought it summarized him quite succinctly:

A greek-born jewish libertarian homosexual who sucks black cock. How could berkeley hate him? He uses political statistics mixed with satire in exactly the same way as Bill Maher, Steven Colbert and Jon Daily - but the targets are the left. They label it hate speech, and claim it's not protected. They can dish it out, but they can't take it. And Berkeley didn't protest Milo's speech. He didn't even get to give one. The former bastion of free speech (even if it is painful) became the epicenter of the new BrownShirt Movement that the left projects so much on the Alt Right. Burning, destroying, pepper spraying and then punching women. Milo is doing the best job of portraying the violence and insanity of the left better than anyone has ever done - and making the left prove to the white working middle class they so desperately need to ever win another election that they are a bunch of whack-a-loons who can never be trusted.

 

[juleswin]

How libertarian of you!

That I do not want waste an oz of energy defending a pedofriendly, Trump supporting degenerate? We all have to pick our battles, waste your energy on him, for me, I just decided that this is not going to be my battleground. I would save my outrage for a more deserving person.

At the end of the day, we have to choose our fights and what could be more libertarian than that?

Whether deliberate or not, this is causing many on the right to yell for the Feds to do something. This is very bad response to bad actors. Seems the local officials are not doing anything to mitigate it either.

Everyone thought the absolute police state would come under Obama. It could not because of likely resistance from gun owners, military etc. Now the pieces are getting placed for it to steam roll in with people cheering for it.
