5 Things I Learned At Berkeley Last Night: ... the police quickly arrested anyone with a weapon or a mask

Via Iver


So, I visited Berkeley last night.

And it was terrific.

The students were engaged; the police were finally allowed to do their jobs. Antifa stayed away. Sure, there were protesters – lots of them. That’s great! It’s a free country, and they’re free to say whatever stupid nonsense they want to. But overall, this was a big moment for Berkeley, which had been blockaded by violent leftists for nearly a year: a civil discussion involving a dissenting, conservative voice, allowed by the administration and defended by law enforcement.

Even at Berkeley, the First Amendment still lives.

Here are a few things I learned last night.
