The lone abstention came from student Sen. Solomon Nwoche.

Nwoche said while he sympathized with the situation, he thinks the resolution does not accomplish anything substantial. He added he was disappointed in how a student who spoke against the resolution at an earlier meeting was treated by student senators, who laughed or had their backs turned when the lone protestor addressed the dais...........................More proof liberalism is a mental disease.

Berkley is the cesspool of anti-american thinking.

The technically correct term is “illegal alien”.

The UC Berkeley student government has banned the term “illegal immigrant” from its discourse, deeming the phrase racist, offensive, unfair and derogatory.

Is this not quite a turnabout from the 1960s when Berkeley led the way with crude, offensive language and flag burning? All in the name of "free speech!" Do their parents approve. Will you be kicked off campus if you utter those words? Do, in fact, the words speak truth?

Are the UC Berkeley students insulting legal immigrants, who waited in line to become citizens? What country do these students represent? Did UC Berkeley dumb down their entrance requirements, or are only Democrats accepted at the school?

If the abstention hadn’t come from someone named Solomon Nwoche, the proverbial kettle of tar would be boiling about now, and the crypto-communists there would be looking around for vegan feathers.

UC BERKELEY STUDENT GOVERNMENT BANS TERM ‘ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT’

This is the real meaning of Mario Savio's 60's rant and protest for "Free Speech" as a forerunner of the hippie movement. It was a protest outside of the Constitutionally guaranteed "freedom of speech."

Mario Savios protest was that speech must be "OUR FORM" of "free speech." "OUR FORM" of "free speech" is WE can use foul language anytime we want to and we can ban YOU from expressing certain opinions or concepts offensive to us.

Mario Savio and the hippie movement was the harbinger of Socialist tyranny and oppression.

***No human being is illegal***

Don’t think so? Why don’t you smart-a$$e$ go climb the White House fence and run as fast as you can up to one of the windows. And tell the Secret Service you have a right to do this because you’re ‘human’.

If you’re still alive come back and we’ll see if your perspective on illegal entry has changed.

The way to stop this idiocy is for more Conservatives to be active in student govt while in college.

Good, because Illegal Alien is a much more descriptive title. These law breaking criminals are not immigrants, or they would have come here legally! They mooch off our tax dollars, rob, rape and murder our citizens and deserve jail and then deportation. Bezerkly can KMA.

I think the institution of UC Berkeley, particularly its leadership and a large portion of its faculty, have in certain ways had a horrendously negative influence on the whole nation and have, directly and indirectly, lowered the quality of life for millions of Americans.
