have you watched the footage? there isn't any proactive policing there, it's just clip after clip of the rioters crossing the line over and over and over again with no significant repercussions
that and the mayor of Berkeley called Yiannopoulos a white nationalist and openly said that he wasn't welcome there before the event was even supposed to take place
there are rumors going around saying that the mayor himself ordered the police to stand down, and you know what? I'm not into conspiracy theories but this is entirely believable and the mounting evidence against Jesse Arreguin (the mayor) is pretty convincing and not helping him at all
I'm inclined to believe it

And yes, the mayor is ultimately responsible. I will concede there. Punishing the university for this is stupid.
so take away the city's funding instead

The police were there but were ordered not to do anything.

A starbucks was also trashed during this event, by the way. :cookieMonster:

An antifa member was shot at for assaulting a Annoying Orange supporter.
The media is spinning it to seem like the Annoying Orange supporter was at fault, this is not the case lol.
