The "Soft Totalitarianism" Is Already Here!

 After eight years of a president who subtly, if not outright, encouraged the country's minority youth to become bolder at creating "in-your-face" politics via protest, we have seen several recent instances of violent terrorism - the "homegrown" kind - at various campuses around the country.

Heather McDonald, author of "The War on Cops", has been the most recent instance. This article, written by her, gives an account of what went on at Claremont College and warns us what could happen in the future if something isn't done about it now. However, IMHO, I believe it's too late. With the mainstream media giving these hooligans all the attention they're getting, they are now more embolden to ratchet up their activities to an even more "brown shirt" style with Ann Coulter's scheduled speech at UC Berkely at the end of this month.

Update: The civil war between liberals and conservatives grows as Antifa seeks combat training and arms for the next confrontation.

When interviewed on the Tucker Carlson Show earlier this week about how the faculty had rescheduled her appearance for May 2nd - when most students who would want to hear her speak  would be in the midst of their finals - she responded that she intends to show up at the campus on the originally scheduled date of April 28th. She said that it will be interesting to see whether she's arrested by the police who would prefer to just stand by and watch the Antifas destroy private businesses' property in the vicinity of their protests like last time.

Update: Bernie Sanders & Bill Maher have both come to Coulter's support on the issue of free speech and how the students are "intellectual lightweights". At these two liberals have their heads screwed on right.

Personally, I believe that the main reason most of this lawlessness is being tolerated is because the local authorities - mayor, police chief, etc. - are "sanctuary city" types who tend to support such actions. In fact, recent disclosures have revealed that Berkeley's mayor is part of Antifa's Facebook group! Why am I NOT surprised?

It will be interesting to see what becomes of the notification letters from the Trump administration about federal grant funds being withheld for harboring illegals against federal laws.
