    Well, at least Fox is honoring his Freedom Of Speech, even if Berkeley won't.



    I really wanted to see the Indian headdress, lol.

    I watch a variety of them. But I think it's regulated quite different than Twitter.

    Can you own an Apache helicopter? Why can't you own an Apache helicopter?

    An AR-15 is not an Apache Helicopter, nor is it a WMD, or any other nonsense you Liberals like to compare them to.

    But nice try.

    And yes, you can own decommissioned tanks and other military vehicles in this country, as long as you have the money. There are auctions and depots for them all across the country.

    I'm not sure what you're getting at. I'm not trying to argue against regulation of armaments. I'm simply arguing in favor of regulation of disruptive protest.

    Administrators decided to cancel the Wednesday event about two hours before the Breitbart editor's speech. UC Berkeley said it removed him from campus "amid the violence and destruction of property and out of concern for public safety."

    http://www.cnn.com/2017/02/01/us/milo-yiannopoulos-berkeley/

    "Amid violence, destruction of property and out of concern for public safety, the University of California Police Department determined that it was necessary to remove Milo Yiannopoulos from the campus and to cancel tonight’s scheduled 8 p.m. performance,"

    Had never heard of Milo before and wanted to see what all the fuss was about so I downloaded his most recent podcast which was him speaking and Univ of Colorado. I only made it about 30 minutes because he was just talk talking about, and I shit you not, why there are more ugly people on the left.

    He seemed like a fucking idiot. Why are people taking him this seriously? Sure, he's an asshole, but I didn't hear any valid points he was making or any reason not to just completely dismiss him (granted, I gave up after 30 minutes of that nonsense).

    In his own words he's declared war on political correctness.

    The regulations on speech @dviss1 is talking about would be similar 2nd amendment regulations. Like shooting someone, or firing a gun in many places.

    Keep in mind I wasn't paying attention to that stuff, but I heard he didn't sic his followers on her, and that she was giving it right back to the trolls that went after her.

    I will take a crack at answering this very good question.

    Madison codified with the second amendment a very old right, that was first codified in the The law of Nations. That is the right people have to self defense including the right to the use of weapons in their defense.

    It seem quite logical don't you think that we all have this right? Well then it also follows that weapons designed for use in offensive attack are not covered in this right. Attack is reserved to the sovereign, not individuals.

    Apache "Attack" Helicopter are not covered in the original intent of the 2nd amendment.

    I stand corrected. Berkley cancelled the racist's speech. They shouldn't have had him there in the first place.

    How might this play out, if this form of rioting continues and spreads? The local police didn't do anything about it. Perhaps the powers that be are afraid of inciting more riots, or are afraid that the rioters will turn against them.

    A couple days ago they showed up at the house of liberal senator Feinstien, because she apparantly was not being tough enough on Trump (shades of the French Revolution anyone?)

    So if the police don't handle this, will Trump create a national police force for this type of thing?
