Another example of the civility that the left cried about needing after the Jeffords shooting. Nothing like an arrest record to round out your lightweight public service resume.

You tell 'em, Steve! Steve is right! Steve is always right! All those pampered students at Berkeley! They've all been taught by teachers! Teachers are the problem! The teachers are unionized. The unions are the problem! The teachers teach in schools! Schools are the problem! Banish Schools!!! Banish civil disobedience!!! Save your children! Keep them away from Teachers!

'People were eating dinner provided by a campus organization. Everything was very civil.'

Ha! That's what the article says. But what were they eating? If you readers can't see the similarities between this and the Jeffords shooting, there's something wrong with you!

We need to protest schools like Berkeley and in Pleasanton. They are breeding grounds for future union members and teachers. We don't really need education. Steve and Me are GREAT examples.

Wow! "Steve is right" sounds little grumpy this morning...and over the top with his UNcivility, as he has a right to do, as were the student (enrolled?) protesters, supported by the Magnanimous (yeah, right!) and Wonderful Unions of the world, who after making their point literally loud and clear, had to take it over the top.

Hey Gary, 'UNcivility' ? Sounds like you went to the same High Skool as Me. Steve to the left of me, Gary on the right, here I am stuck in the middle with you. Stay strong brother!!! We all think good and we's all fighters against the forces of UNcivility!!! Think like Steve and Me. Vote No on E!!! Me and my family of 16 in the household are all going to vote No!!!

These teachers are complaining about being furloughed, when they know very well furloughs are nothing but unpaid vacations that allow them to supplement their lavish lifestyles.

But there's something all the NO on E voters might do when the teachers are all off enjoying their unpaid holidays at our expense. We can hold off-campus seminars on political discourse, spelling, and syntax as a way of combatting UNcivility. All UNspellers, UNgrammarians, UNteachers and UNunionists are welcome! Hinters, satirists, ironists, hyperbolists and humorists are UNwelcome.

You are no satirist. Satirists do not use humor to attack and marginalize people.

It's always so easy to spot the union activists....their manual says "change the topic"...make it about the other person, their typos,etc, ANYTHING EXCEPT the topic or issue. They certainly do not want to offer facts...just spew about the irrelevant,, so it's no longer about the thread topic.

I believe the topic was Berkeley,academia, and public unions....... pretty deadly mix, it's bound to be a bad exchange....aka UNcivil.

Hmmmm, the meaning of satire. Well,...

You may call my meaning of satire nonsense, if you like, states the Red Queen. And she continues, satire means what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less.

My dictionary pledges obeisance to the all powerful and moralistic Red Queen's own personal and very private meaning.

My problem is that I always think the topic has been changed, no matter WHAT anyone says. I'm sure this isn't me. It must be the union thugs who are responsible.

Hmm, trying to recall, when was the last time anyone remembers 17 arrests of TEA Partiers, you know, those violent, heavily armed racists, at any of there events, or any protest, anywhere, ever?

Boy... whatta lot of noise over nothing... The protesters were arrested for civil disobedience, not vandalism or threatening activities. Why so incensed?

The arrests might not be common occurrence, but the media has blown this thing way out of proportion. If you'd actually BEEN there, you would've seen that the "event" consisted of a couple speeches after which the students dispersed and went on their way. The truly committed student and teacher activists are fairly few, because most of us care about our classes and grades... Not like the good ol' days...

Today Wheeler Hall was shut down, however...
