After the University of California anti-free speech riots, the Mayor of Berkeley tried to blame the unrest on the speaker Milo Yiannapoulos by smearing him as a white supremacist.
Several hours later, Mayor Jesse Arreguin revised his statement to label Yiannopoulis as a "white nationalist" in lieu of a "white supremacist". Neither smear seems to fit the libertarian leaning, flamboyantly homosexual Trump supporter.
But claiming that Yiannopoulos might have engaged in "hate speech" had he been given the chance to speak seems to be the key for liberals to excuse mob violence to silence dissent at the supposed home of the free speech movement.
