BERKELEY (CBS SF) — Following the cancellation of the Ann Coulter speech at University of California, Berkeley, far-right supporters plan to hold a rally Thursday to denounce what they claim is the attempted silencing of their conservative views, stoking fears of another violent encounter with far-left groups.
UC Police said it was preparing for violence Thursday between militant factions on both sides, even as the speech by the conservative firebrand Coulter was canceled over fears of violence.
Gavin McInnes, founder of the pro-Trump “Proud Boys,” said he would fly to Berkeley to speak Thursday and was encouraging other alt-right forces to make a large appearance at the gathering, scheduled for 2:00 p.m. at Civic Center Park.
In a YouTube video, McInnes challenged the so-called anti-fascist groups, “… our army will be a bigger audience than most of these liberals get when they do talks. So you f***’ed up. Once again, you have created this mythical universe of Nazis on every corner and you’ve tried to shut it down based on that lie. Well, we’re not allowing that to happen. The show must go on.”

There won’t be any violence unless the anarchists show up.
The Coulter fans won’t be breaking windows, etc.
The fascists of AntiFA (Anti-First-Amendment) want a riot, and they will show up to destroy even if there is nothing to “protest”.
Liberals in waiting just can’t seem to make up their minds. They get violent if it happens. And their get violent if it is cancelled. And the final stupidity is that they will be breaking windows and turning over cars, thus breaking up their own things and harming their neighbors and themselves for nothing. How bright is that?

Ronald Reagan knew how to deal with these types and their media syncophants; stopped them immediately.
far-right supporters!!!! ........................ Why is it always the “FAR” right supporters, and never the “FAR” left supporters? Are Independents who supported Trump “FAR” middles?
Anyone remember the SDS and the Weathermen? Redux?
And McInnes is one of the best.
“UC Berkley gears up for violence over __________” (anything and everything).
By the way, tomorrow the sun will rise in the east, gear up for violence.
It’s way past time to get it on with these people. Most folks can only be pushed so far by these anti-American violent AH’s.
‘was preparing for violence Thursday between militant factions on both sides,’
And thus the MSM sinks to it’s usual amorality and relativism. Defending the right to free speech makes you a militant..
To be fair.. from the article: "stoking fears of another violent encounter with far-left groups."
Berkeley police spokesmen announced that the department was ready for the riots with its fluffy pillows and special van seats that recline to fully supine positions.
In our little corner of GreenAcres, a previously left-leaning acquaintance has started to declare his new-found conservative standing based on these types of developments.
He's actually very well-read and something of a free thinker but the antiFA antics have pushed him over the edge. This all started when the "not-my-president" leftists began spewing their lunacies in November.
We welcome him aboard.
Hope stick man is back.
Supporters of the duly elected President are by definition MAIN STREAM!
There are several benefits to the far-left fringe going overboard, and that is one of them.
