Here's that lecture on 'free speech' and punching Nazis you might have missed in school

As Twitchy reported, teachers and students at UC Berkeley are encouraging professors to cancel classes and administrators to close down the campus next week during “Free Speech Week,” which promises to bring conservative speakers like Ann Coulter to campus.

Seeing as classes could be canceled any time someone with an alternative viewpoint wanders onto school grounds, it’s probably handy that CUNY assistant professor and StudentActivism.net founder Angus Johnston brought his lecture on swastikas and free speech and Nazi punching online Tuesday.

Is the issue really that complex? Don’t punch anybody.
