From the UC Berkeley Daily Californian:Violence helped ensure safety of studentsOn November 7, 2016, I blogged about illegal alien Juan Prieto’s anti-free speech op-ed in The New York Times:BY JUAN PRIETO | SPECIAL TO THE DAILY CAL LAST UPDATED 15 HOURS AGO
A national debate on freedom of speech has sparked since the night of Feb. 1, when a Breitbart hatemonger’s speech was cancelled because of radical acts against replaceable property at my school, UC Berkeley.
… They want to ensure that there is a distinction between the rioters and the students who were there to protest peacefully.
Well, I’m here to thank the radical measures the AntiFas took to ensure my safety. …
As an outspoken undocumented student at UC Berkeley, this frightened me. I walked around campus constantly looking over my shoulder that day, uncertain whether the doxing of my online profile had already placed a target on me.
NYT: Undocumented Student Denounces Free Speech on Immigration PolicyNow this illegal alien continues his campaign against America’s First Amendment by praising the use of violence to suppress free speech:STEVE SAILER • NOVEMBER 7, 2016 •
From The New York Times:
My campus did nothing to stand between my undocumented community and the hateful hands of radicalized white men — the AntiFas did. A peaceful protest was not going to cancel that event, just like numerous letters from faculty, staff, Free Speech Movement veterans and even donors did not cancel the event. Only the destruction of glass and shooting of fireworks did that. The so-called “violence” against private property that the media seems so concerned with stopped white supremacy from organizing itself against my community.Also from today’s Daily Californian:
Black bloc did what campus should have[Comment at Unz.com]BY NEIL LAWRENCE | SPECIAL TO THE DAILY CAL LAST UPDATED 1 HOUR AGO
… On the afternoon of Feb. 1, a few friends and I met up with many other small groups of friends. We gathered off campus, distributed flags, wrote the National Lawyers Guild number on each others’ arms and helped each other make sure our faces were properly covered. Then we started marching.
… We were not, as the news, the chancellor and concerned progressives have alleged, “unaffiliated white anarchists.” Behind those bandanas and black T-shirts were the faces of your fellow UC Berkeley and Berkeley City College students, of women, of people of color, of queer and trans people.
… To those who hate Yiannopoulos and the alt-right but have a hard time condoning black bloc tactics and property damage, I understand that these tactics are extreme. But when you consider everything that activists already tried — when mass call-ins, faculty and student objections, letter-writing campaigns, numerous op-eds (including mine), union grievances and peaceful demonstrations don’t work, when the nonviolent tactics have been exhausted — what is left?
