A price to be paid

The bizarro world that is Berkeley, California, may finally start to pay a price for its relentlessly left-wing, anti-American activity. One business has publicly announced that it is moving its headquarters out of the city due to the negative publicity associated with being a Berkeley-based corporation: http://www.dailycal.org/article/101127/local_company_to_leave_berkeley_due_to_protests.

There was one very telling comment at the end of the article which I found to be a very telling indicator of the mindset of those running the city:

"I'm sorry to hear they're leaving, but I think it's inevitable given the conflict that is happening with the Marine recruiting center," [Downtown council member Dona] Spring said. "... I don't see how the businesses in that square can sustain the kind of controversy that the Marine recruiting center has had on that locale."

So, this idiot politician is blaming the Marines for the problem. No, it has NOTHING to do with the license to intimidate and harass that the city council has given to Code Pink and its seditious allies.

Kudos to the business for this, hopefully others will follow until they finally see the damage they are causing. I hope the business can succeed elsewhere. It must be frustrating to the Marines to constantly face this city-sponspored protesting.
