So in other words one side can create a public safety concern which allows the University to get around the first amendment?  Sounds a little like fascism.

Why would it only be "one side"? Provocative speakers engender circumstances where parties of all sides can potentially create public safety concerns. It is impossible to predict accurately who will show up to express their viewpoints peacefully, and who has come to destroy property and break skulls. You and I and everyone can make all sorts of predictions and conjectures about which group is more likely to be an aggressor in a particular situation, but ultimately human beings are messy and unpredictable. Universities aren't "getting around" the First Amendment by enforcing time/place/manner restrictions -- they are balancing the need to protect the public from danger against the robust expression of ideas. As long as there are alternative channels of communication, there is no violation of the First Amendment. In any event, the issue is clearly moot now.

Kinda like saying because terrorists are attacking places all over the world, the government should force us all to stay home for the sake of public safety. Give me a break. You don't give in to a mob.

MORE BERKELEY STONEWALLING: University Refuses To Release Tickets For Shapiro Event, Administrators Disappear When Questioned

On Thursday, University of California at Berkeley once again threw up obstacles to Ben Shapiro’s speaking event on campus on September 14 at Zellerbach Hall. It is now August 31, two weeks out from the speech, and the university has yet to release tickets. Hoping to discuss that issue with the administration, Berkeley College Republican secretary Bradley Devlin and Young America’s Foundation activist Amy Lutz went to the Cal Performances office to meet with Rob Bean and Gina Perino. Despite YAF and BCR attempts to coordinate with the university, the university has not been able to finalize ticketing.

Devlin stopped by the offices at 12:30 p.m., but was informed that Bean and Perino were on a lunch break; when he stopped by again with Lutz at 2:00 p.m., they were told that both Bean and Perino had “left unexpectedly” for the remainder on the day. The office refused to let Devlin and Lutz know when Bean and Perino would return the next day. Devlin and Lutz were also informed that only Bean and Perino were capable of discussing the issues.

Lutz stated, “I'm spending the day at UC-Berkeley to assist BCR students in promoting the Ben Shapiro event. It's maddening to see these administrative hurdles in person."

Due to Berkeley’s refusal to release tickets, YAF has opened up a link where people can register to receive information as soon as it is available; well over 2,000 people have already signed up.

Watching this and Berkeley's statements about free speech is quite a comic strip in and of itself.
