The day Berkeley declared that hate speech is not free speech

By Lynda Carson - February 4, 2017

Berkeley -- With an act of civil disobedience by many declaring ”Hate Speech Is Not Free Speech”, it was a message that reverberated around the world.

Wednesday February 1st, began just like any other normal warm winter day in beautiful downtown Berkeley, a.k.a. Berzerkeley. As usual, the students were trying to get smarter by the moment. The brutal cops were having fun harassing the homeless. And Food Not Bombs was busy feeding the hungry in Peoples Park. Meanwhile, university officials were scheming how to grab Peoples Park from the people, in the name of building student housing.

But trouble was brewing in town and the smell of resistance was in the air. Republicans have been trying to pick a fight with the liberals and lefties in Berkeley, and Suzanne Caro of Oakland is the chair of the Republican Party in Alameda County.

When Republican right-wing fascist pig white supremacist Milo Yiannopoulous of Breitbart came to Cal Berkeley on February 1st, as a speaker to pick a fight that day with the students, people of color, women, gays, and anti-fascists, everyone was ready for Milo. The people fought back, and they gave it their best to keep Milo Yiannopoulous from spreading more of his hate speech on campus.

Because the cops were there to protect the hate speech event that was scheduled to occur on the campus, some of the 1,500 demonstrators raised hell. And the demonstrators held their ground when the cops repeatedly told them it was an unlawful assembly, and told them to disperse.

As a result of the 1,500 demonstrators raising hell on campus, and the streets of Berkeley, the scheduled speaking event on campus with the fascist Milo Yiannopoulous was cancelled. The protesters then proclaimed it was a victory, and declared that Milo Yiannopoulous had failed in his attempt to spread hate speech in Berkeley.

In defense of Milo and the failed attempt to make a hate speech on campus, the twisted illegitimate President Donald J. Trump sent out a tweet threatening to cut off federal funds to Cal Berkeley.

The illegitimate President Donald J. Trump, has recently been denounced by several Nobel Peace Laureates for his “hate” speech, and attack on immigrants.

Additionally, the illegitimate President Donald J. Trump allegedly is a sexual predator, who was sued for discriminating against African-Americans at his apartment buildings, and was raised by his father who was allegedly arrested at a Ku Klux Klan brawl with the cops. Trump has picked alleged bigot and white supremacist Stephen Bannon, formerly of Breitbart, as his “chief strategist and senior counselor,” to help bring into reality the plans for his first 100 days in the White House. Known for being a racist, Trump has filed for bankruptcy on a number of occasions.

The UC Administration's first duty at all times is to protect UC students and staff from any potential harm. Allowing a racist to speak on campus is an obviously harmful act. As the above states, there is no free speech for hate speech. No one has a right to yell fire in a crowded theater. Promoting racism , as Nazi Germany did, is promoting genocide, a form of falsely yelling fire in a crowded theater, as it is scapegoating people, which in Nazi Germany resulted in the Holocaust of Jews, Gypsies, gay people, prisoners of war from the Soviet Union and many others. There is no free speech for proven murderers, which fascists are by definition.

Laurel Krause, the sister of Allison Krause, who was deliberately murdered on May 4, 1970 at Kent State, has an ongoing investigation into exactly what happened. See http://www.truthtribunal.org/State. The National Guard, in cooperation with a police agent on campus, murdered 4 students and wounding 9, including paralyzing 1 student. None of these students was doing anything illegal and most were just going to their classes. Kent State, like all university campuses in this country from 1965-1973, was the site of protests against the draft since the men could be drafted as soon as they finished college, unless they had a physical disability, joined an organization on the Attorney General's subversive list, namely any socialist organization, an unthinkable act for most people, were openly gay which was considered a psychiatric condition, or met the few other criteria that existed for an exemption. Nationwide, we had protests of the invasion of Cambodia by Nazi USA, and after the Kent State massacre, a massive student strike, or in the case of California, closure of all public universities for about a week by then Governor Reagan as a means of preventing on campus protests. As the above website states:

"On May 4, 1970 the Ohio National Guard opened fire on unarmed students protesting America´s invasion of Cambodia. Four students were killed and nine were wounded. The incident triggered national outrage in a country already divided over the Vietnam War. In the days that followed more than four million students rose up in dissent across 900 campuses, generating the only nationwide student protest in U.S. history."

WE NEED 4 MILLION PEOPLE RIGHT NOW TO STOP FASCISM IN THE USA WITH A GENERAL STRIKE. The only thing the capitalist class cares about is their profits. So far, the profits of the capitalist class are increasing. Soon will be the battle of the budget, and Trump Trash Nazis plan to cut Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, public housing and all other gains of the workingclass to return this country to the 19th Century. SHAME ON EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO VOTED FOR TRUMP TRASH. The Green Party was on the ballot in 47 states and DC. Socialist organizations were on the ballot in many states, including California's Peace & Freedom Party. Nazi Trump's history was well known on the Internet, available to everyone in the USA with an instant Internet search. The vote for Nazi Trump was a viciously racist and male chauvinist vote. The ruling class could easily get rid of him since he sits in office courtesy election fraud done by tossing the black vote, the same way the Republicans won in 2000 and 2004. Their failure to do so means they support him. GENERAL STRIKE NOW.
