Throw the book at these spoiled brats.
some of those arrested are not students.. may they do time and lots of it..
And yet Nancy Pelosi is worried about violence breaking out at the Tea Parties. When will the Left learn that it is the Left who uses violence to get their message across?
More petty fascism from the student left.
Funny they weren’t worried about getting shot.
Do that here in Florida and they would. Except at our gun free zones (aka Universities).
Understandable reaction to being arrested??? Only slight property damage??? This punk is trying to justify damaging someone else's property because they were arrested for illegally occupying a building. Time for the parents to punt his tush out the door into the real world and stop the college tuition gravy ride. But I forget, this is Kalifornia, home of the American taliban terrorist who was 'just trying to find his way in the world'.

Obviously never heard of Ossian Sweet or what happened to the mob that attacked his house.
I love the sound of cops’ batons cracking anarcho skulls early in the morning. It sounds like...good housekeeping.
This is lib eat lib.
These students are getting a first hand dose of what a Socialist system looks like.
Not that that will change the student view on Nationalized Healthcare or anything....
I bet if they were Muslim he wouldn't.
3 Million Extravagant, Arrogant Spending by UC President Yudof for UCBerkeley Chancellor Birgeneau to Hire Consultants - When Work Can Be Done Internally
These days, every dollar counts. Contact Senate (Ms. Romero 916.651.4105) & Assembly (Ms. Brownley 916.319.2044) Chairpersons Education Committees or your representatives.
Do the work internally at no additional costs with UCB Academic Senate Leadership (C. Kutz/F. Doyle), the world class UCB faculty/ staff, & the UCB Chancellors bloated staff (G. Breslauer, N. Brostrom, F. Yeary, P. Hoffman, C. Holmes etc) & President Yudof.
President Yudofs UCB Chancellor should do the high paid work he is paid for instead of hiring expensive East Coast consults to do the work of his job. World class smart executives like Chancellor Birgeneau need to do the hard work analysis, and make the tough-minded difficult, decisions to identify inefficiencies.
Where do the $3,000,000 consultants get their recommendations?
From interviewing the UCB senior management that hired them and approves their monthly consultant fees and expense reports. Remember the nationally known auditing firm who said the right things and submitted recommendations that senior management wanted to hear and fooled the public, state, federal agencies?
$3 million impartial consultants never bite the hands (Birgeneau/Yeary) that feed them!
Mr. Birgeneau’s accountabilities include “inspiring innovation, leading change.” This involves “defining outcomes, energizing others at all levels and ensuring continuing commitment.” Instead of deploying his leadership and setting a good example by doing the work of his Chancellors job, Mr. Birgeneau outsourced his work to the $3,000,000 consultants. Doesn’t he engage UC and UC Berkeley people at all levels to examine inefficiencies and recommend $150 million of trims? Hasn’t he talked to Cornell and the University of North Carolina - which also hired the consultants — about best practices and recommendations that will eliminate inefficiencies?
No wonder the faculty, staff, students, Senate & Assembly are angry and suspicious.
In todays economy three million dollars is a irresponsible price to pay when a knowledgeable world-class UCB Chancellor and his bloated staff do not do the work of their jobs.
Together, we will make a difference.
Berzerkely!
No more free pie - and the natives are restless.....
