Perhaps it is appropriate and ironic that free speech should be opposed so violently in the place where the Free Speech movement got started.

I also suggest that you listen to what Molyneux has to say.

This all looks like brown-shirt behavior from the thirties. Makes me wonder who the real fascists are?
We all need to be intellectually honest.
Are Black Bloc of "the Left?"
For that matter, are the so called "Alt-Right" of the Right?
Are the extreme partisans of the right on the right, and on the left of the left? I would say yes.
Can one attribute and associate all of the beliefs of the far extremes to everyone on their side? Absolutely not. I didn't start any fires at Berkeley. I know of no contributors here spouting the same sort of rhetoric as Yiannopoulos. There are variations and intensities of belief on both the left and right. The notion of all folk on one side or the other as being alike and embracing the extreme extreme is absurd.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
