Sanders Slams UC Berkeley’s Anti-Free Speech Zealots: ‘It’s A Sign Of Intellectual Weakness’

(From Townhall)

It seems even the most left wing elements of the Democratic Party aren’t for UC Berkeley’s anti-free speech antics. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and DNC Deputy Chair Keith Ellison both condemned the efforts to shut down Ann Coulter’s planned speaking engagement at the hyper left wing campus on April 27. The school’s administration later cancelled the invitation, but re-invited Coulter to speak on May 2. Coulter said that would not be possible and is coming to Berkeley at her prearranged date. The UC Berkeley College Republican chapter said they plan to file a lawsuit against the school if they don’t provide a venue for the event, while Young America’s Foundation is reportedly searching for off-campus spots to host the conservative pundit. YAF has also said they plan to sue Berkeley over this matter.
