‘Never forget that we are lucky to live in a country that has a First Amendment’

Maher Gives Commencement Speech at Berkeley After Controversy Over Stance on Radical Islam (RealClearPolitics)

Bill Maher gives the commencement speech at U.C. Berkeley's winter graduation ceremony after a long debate about whether he should have been invited due to his views on the threat of radical Islam.

Maher didn't directly address the controversy, but did make a comment about free speech.

"Never forget that we are lucky to live in a country that has a First Amendment," he said. "Liberals should want to own it the way conservatives own the Second."

Undercover anonymous journalist Zombie at PJ Media covered the small protest at the event.
