"The university is also offering counseling to students and faculty worried about the event...'We are deeply concerned about the impact some speakers may have on individuals' sense of safety and belonging...No one should be made to feel threatened or harassed simply because of who they are or for what they believe."
This is hilarious, I guess they don't care about Antifa physically assaulting people that are going to attend the speech, instead they worry about the words coming out of the month of Shapiro.

I disagree with a lot of things he spews out, guess what I do about it? Nothing, why in the world would people get violent and destroy property over him speaking?

Well, I can think of several with relative ease.
I disagree with his stance on abortion, even though he makes about the best case possible in my mind, it's still flawed in my opinion.
As brilliant as Ben is on so many issues, I find his knowledge on economics to be lacking for a variety of reasons. His study is politics and law, not economics and financial markets.
I'm sure I find issue with many more of his stances, but that's not really the discussion here. What ever happened to agree to disagree?

Student organizations want him to speak at their university, a bunch of spoiled children who also attend the same university shouldn't have the power to stop someone from speaking because they're too sensitive to hear his words.

Shapiro is a human smoke screen, he knows much more about economics and human psychology than he lets on
Government and media figures never present the full extent of their knowledge because to do so is career suicide
Im in full support of him and anyone on the planet saying what they want where they want when they want, but that doesnt change the facts at hand and the manner in which society responds to such situations

Well, he's not going to get to far off into any particular direction because it would hurt his overall credibility.
He has bashed Trump since day one with total clarity, that isn't going to hurt his career and he knows it.

Ha, thats rich. When I went to University at both undergrad and graduate orientation they went out of their way to make sure me and my demographic knew we didnt belong and weren't really wanted. I never felt unsafe though.
Plenty of speakers came to my school that I didn't care for. I stayed home and did homework.

Shapiro has some funny speaking events.
He usually owns the SJW's shouting at him

Shapiro owning SJW crowd hecklers is like Enlil going into OTD and calling out logical fallacies.
Who gives a fuck? The lowest of hanging fruit.

I love how these conservative(Shapiro) and white nationalist (Richard Spencer) speakers go to by far the most liberal place in the country and try to provoke people, then act shocked when a bunch of people there get pissed off about it.
Like what are they honestly expecting? Do they think all these Berkeley people are going to just sit there and be like, "Oh gee, ya know what? I hadn't thought about it that way before. Thanks for sharing your opinion with me."
This is like Hillary Clinton walking into an NRA meeting in Texas and trying to preach gun control.
The only reason these "free speech advocates" go troll the people at Berkeley is for the press. Let's be real. These guys are gigantic media whores.

"try to provoke people"
'people will have to show tickets for the speech" No one is getting provoked unless they want to provoke themselves.

"The only reason 'free speech advocates' go troll the people at Berkeley is for the press"
'which is being held at the invitation of the Berkeley College Republicans'
There is no trolling and there's no provoking, this speech is by invitation. Yes, there are conservative students at Berkeley who want a conservative speaker, you obviously never thought of that possibility.
"Like what are they honestly expecting"
For the free exchange of ideas without intimidation or violence from the people that might disagree with their opinions.
