Ms. Koch-a-lite likes to reinvent history to suit her talking points.  The free speech movement was opposed by the UC Berkeley administration - the school banned all political speech in those days.  UC's argument was that the campus mission was education.  The UC administration eventually caved in and changed the policy, and that helped energize the right so that Ronald Reagan got elected Governor of California.  But now fame wh---s like Ann Coulter want to shore up their sagging career, so they are targeting Berkeley in the hopes of getting free publicity, claiming they are victims; meanwhile their thug fans are rioting and beating up leftists who attend, punching people in the face, even young women.
