The University of California, Berkeley, formerly known as the birthplace of the free speech movement by older generations of American liberals, has taken on a new identity in the minds of our nation’s younger generations. For an exponentially growing number of millennials, the Bay Area college town is now the place where free speech ends and violence begins.

Back in February, America watched on in horror and disbelief as a mob of almost 2,000 turned out to “protest” a Milo Yiannopoulos event on campus. Fights were had, weapons were used, and fires were set. Ultimately, the rioting shut down the free-speech rights of Yiannopoulos and his team when the event was cancelled in a city built on the foundations of First Amendment freedoms. How’s that for irony?
