Berkeley responds to Coulter talk amid free speech clash
The essay rails at UC Berkeley for delaying Ann Coulter’s April 27 appearance and signaling tolerance for violence. It compares campus handling to Milo Yiannopoulos protests, warns that deferential policy invites thuggery, and urges upholding free inquiry despite disruption. It cites other institutions and defends First Amendment rights.
