- 0:00all right 11 people were arrested as a
- 0:03result of this mayab now this of course
- 0:05comes after the near Riot we saw earlier
- 0:08this week on the campus of UC Berkeley
- 0:09that was out in California protesters
- 0:12forcing the campus to cancel a speech by
- 0:14the Breitbart editor have the name of
- 0:16Milo ganopoulos by Smashing Windows
- 0:19throwing Molotov cocktails at police and
- 0:21even setting part of the campus on fire
- 0:25earlier this morning the president
- 0:26tweeted Prof Anarchist Thugs and paid
- 0:30protesters are proving the point of
- 0:31millions of people who voted to make
- 0:33America great any Trump fans
- 0:36here all right let check who did you
- 0:39vote
- 0:41for oh just check all right joining us
- 0:43now with reaction from campus reform.org
- 0:46Troy Warden and Fox News contributor
- 0:49Lisa Booth hey Troy I thought liberals
- 0:51were all about freedom of speech I
- 0:54thought UC Berkeley was the home of the
- 0:57Free Speech movement isn't that where it
- 0:58all started in ' 64 and
- 1:0065 well thank you for having me on Sean
- 1:03and I just want to say yes we call
- 1:05ourselves the home of the Free Speech
- 1:06movement but Wednesday night absolutely
- 1:09contradicted that we just wanted to
- 1:11exercise our right to free speech and
- 1:13invite Milo yopos to speak and we
- 1:15couldn't do that because outside groups
- 1:17and agitators aided and eded by students
- 1:20uh used fireworks firecrackers what have
- 1:23you and literally these things were
- 1:25exploding against the building I was
- 1:27inside and I detailed my terrible
- 1:28experiences on campus reform.com and I
- 1:32felt like a war zone it felt like a
- 1:33third world country and I think this is
- 1:35really just a shame I don't think we are
- 1:38in a civil society anymore because the
- 1:40left is too
- 1:42intolerant you know Lisa boo I thought
- 1:44liberals were supposed to be tolerant
- 1:46and inclusive and they love everybody
- 1:49and they always argue oh conservatives
- 1:51are racist and sexist and homophobic
- 1:54xenophobic islamophobic I can't even
- 1:56remember all the phobias I'm supposed to
- 1:58have none of this is true true but it's
- 2:01really them that are intolerant true or
- 2:03false oh 100% Sean they absolutely
- 2:06there's no tolerance on the left uh and
- 2:09look Sean I really think it's important
- 2:11in in the terms in which we describe
- 2:13these riots because we need to be
- 2:15careful and not saying anything in
- 2:16regards to protesting because protesting
- 2:19the exercising of the first amendment I
- 2:21think we can all agree upon but rioting
- 2:23is not covered under the First Amendment
- 2:24these individuals are criminals they are
- 2:26riers they are they should be condemned
- 2:29in the strongest terms and I think it's
- 2:32the media and especially the mainstream
- 2:34media needs to be really careful by not
- 2:36condoning or enabling this Behavior Uh
- 2:39by saying that it's protesting and
- 2:40saying that somehow it's covered by the
- 2:42First Amendment because it's absolutely
- 2:44not you know Troy when I really I look
- 2:47at all of the issues I don't know a
- 2:49conservative that I know not one that's
- 2:52racist I don't know any conservative
- 2:55that doesn't make a distinction between
- 2:57radical Islam and the those that are
- 3:01practicing a religion they make a
- 3:04distinction all of them I don't know
- 3:06anybody frankly that gives a flying rip
- 3:08about anybody's sex life no conservative
- 3:10that I know cares and yet this is a
- 3:12false caricature but I do see
- 3:15intolerance here and Molotov cocktails
- 3:18here and and people being beaten in
- 3:21other instances so it's kind of been
- 3:24Topsy Turvy in terms of the national
- 3:26debate hasn't it yes it's been
- 3:28absolutely crazy Sean and I know Gavin
- 3:30mckinness I've seen him on your show and
- 3:32on Fox News and I can say for certain
- 3:34the man is not a white supremacist or
- 3:36Nazi and the same goes for Milo
- 3:38yannopoulos these people are expressing
- 3:40their views but with in a controversial
- 3:42Manner and with humor and the problem is
- 3:45students at NYU and UC Berkeley aren't
- 3:47being taught by their professors to
- 3:49distinguish between performance and
- 3:51facts I want my peers to protest sure
- 3:55and I also want them to address the
- 3:57facts and statistics Mr yannopoulos and
- 3:59Mr mckinness bring to the table I want
- 4:02them to engage in a rational debate not
- 4:03to shout us down and use violence to to
- 4:06silence us I don't think Berkeley is the
- 4:08home of the Free Speech movement
- 4:10anymore all right last word Lisa well I
- 4:13don't think the left wants to have a
- 4:14debate that's why they always resort to
- 4:16demagogy and and look Sean we didn't see
- 4:19this kind of behavior this kind of
- 4:20violence at the March for Life or at tea
- 4:23party rallies and and and but they say
- 4:25that the Trump supporters are the ones
- 4:26that are supposed to be the deplorable
- 4:29and you see the these actions look at
- 4:30just some of the signs the language and
- 4:32the rhetoric and some of the things that
- 4:34were discussed at this the quote unquote
- 4:36woman's March which wasn't a woman's
- 4:37March because it excluded uh groups of
- 4:40women it was just a pro-choice March but
- 4:42look at the way that a lot of those uh
- 4:44protesters conducted themselves so you
- 4:46know it's just absolutely ridiculous
- 4:48they don't want any sort of uh
- 4:50constructive conversation they just want
- 4:53demagogy all right thank you both for
- 4:55being with us all right when we come
- 4:56back we're in Houston
