I guess we’ll see. They’ve asked for a protest permit with the same privileges as the Code Pinkos… in Berkeley. Who’s betting that their request will be denied?
The Berkeley College Republicans are looking to get the same permit privileges that anti-war group Code Pink use to protest outside the Marine recruiting center in Downtown Berkeley.
Working with Councilmember Kriss Worthington, the group is asking for sound waiver permits and a parking spot reservation outside the center on Wednesdays from 12 to 4 p.m., the same time Code Pink protests outside the center, said Kimberly Wagner, activism chair for the Berkeley College Republicans.
“(Code Pink’s) claim is that they’re protecting free speech,” she said. “I kind of don’t feel they are, they are inhibiting the recruitment center in general. It’s important that they are not unopposed, that there are people willing to fight them. Even though it’s Berkeley, the liberal center of America, there will be people (opposed).”
Worthington is working to have the item appear on an agenda in May.
My guess is that their request will be denied.
The group is also circulating to make the recruitment center a protected zone — sure to go over well with the Berkeley libs.
While I’m glad that someone in Berkeley is standing up to the Code Pinkos (it sure as hell needed to be done), I can’t help but wonder what the Marines think. I highly doubt that they ever anticipated that opening a recruitment center in Berkeley would bring on this much attention or put them in this kind of political crossfire. And I doubt that they want this much protesting going on in front of their office, even if it is to support them. It’s great that the College Republicans are doing this, but I don’t see how it improves the situation for the Marines — do you?
