I watched most of the Ben Shapiro live stream this evening, presented by the Young College Republicans at Berkeley. After watching, it is very hard to understand what the ruckus is all about. I can see how some of his views, especially on abortion would trouble liberals, especially those further left, but that is only a part of the mosiac of ideas that was presented. And it was discussed during the Q & A.
If students today, whether at Berkeley, or other institutions, believe positions such as Mr. Shaprio’s don’t deserve to be heard, shame on you.
A big shout out to the Berkeley College Republicans.
Also a big shout out to the liberals that attended and asked questions. Almost to a person, they said they supported free speech. That is the point after all.
