Just ironic that this is happening at Berkeley where they always used to protest free speech.  

 

My kid got invited to an engineering camp at Berkeley this summer.  I was about to write a big check, but thankfully these idiots saved me some money.

My biggest issue is the elected officials that tell the police to stand down and let these idiots destroy property.  1 arrest was made which is ludicrous.  The lady in the Trump hat that was mased by a thug needs to file assault charges immediately.

 

Peaceful Protesting is fine and protected under our Constitution.  Once you start looting, damaging property, and blocking roads then your a$$ needs to go to jail.  The police need to be allowed to do their jobs.

Why should they, or any other school, be getting federal funds anyway?

Because we have too much government intrusion( regardless of party) in our lives.  So many idiots believe that government is the solution to any and all problems when it fact, much of the time, it magnifies the issue (s).

It is becoming more and more apparent that liberals are the biggest bunch of idiots going.  Liberals and dems were screaming that if crooked Hillary won, conservatives and pubs need to accept  the results.  How about their bunch of idiots.  Democrats, a party to be proud of.  Good job Obama, Hillary, Pelosi, and Reid to name a few of the enablers.  Hopefully Trump will strip their funding.

The theory used to be that colleges such as Berkeley were the epitome of free speech and exchanges of ideas with all perspectives being considered and respected.  In fact, collegiate America was supposed to represent that.  Doesn't seem to be the case any more.  If you don't endorse the liberal perspective, you must be silenced. Almost a version of Hollywood.

Tried to do the same at NYU.  I think the Police did a better job.  Evidently thr Left is afraid that were the students exposed to information on from the right, it'll show how wrong the left is, so they have to riot to stop them.

CNN's Don Lemon reported that the Berkeley rioters were actually conservitives just trying to make the left look bad.  The students were peacefully protesting when a bunch of masked conservatives ran up and started destroying the campus.  

 

How is this guy on TV?

    • That’s a heck of a take there. If you could just remove Kountze’s top 6-7 players, you got them.
    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
