Berkley vigil for Kate Steinle disrupted by leftists
http://insider.foxnews.com/2017/12/12/ka...licans-say
Quote:College Republicans at University of California, Berkeley say activists disrupted a vigil for Kate Steinle, taking down the poster with her picture on it and throwing it in the trash.
Quote:On Thursday, members of the Berkeley College Republicans held a candlelit vigil for Steinle. After the vigil, they left behind flowers, candles that spelled out "KATE" and a poster with her image on it.
Before dawn, the poster had been taken down and put in the trash.
Quote:On "Fox & Friends," Troy Worden, a member of the Berkeley College Republicans and a Campus Reform correspondent, said that most of the mainstream media has forgotten about Steinle, so they wanted to hold a vigil to honor her memory.
"Normally, vigils aren't contentious at UC Berkeley. You can pretty much wave an ISIS flag around on campus, and no one will bat an eye," Worden said.
Yet, he said, their Steinle vigil was quickly met by protests from Antifa activists, who interrupted the event and called those honoring Steinle "racists and bigots."
"Our message of honoring Kate was totally lost in this protest," Worden said, noting that they had previously put up posters of Steinle on campus only to have them almost immediately taken down.
"There are people at Berkeley who are basically hellbent on stopping any kind of memorial for this victim of illegal immigration."

That's fine. They highlight just hiw far to the extreme left they are. The majority of Americans cannot relate to this behavior.

Yes...very much so. Without the violence and if so only in self defense.
