People in college are not “kids”. The vast majority are over 18 and therefore adults.

We need to stop extending childhood forever and making excuses for people. If adults do/say stupid things then they should pay for it through loss of respect, prestige etc.

Yaki’s reasoning for wishing to limit First Amendment protections on campus is that there’s a large group of people whose brains have not yet fully developed . . .

Yeah. They're called "college professors."

IOW, he needs to resign, or be removed.

And I wonder, did he mention Judeophobia as something that should be banned? Because, y’know, Facebook doesn’t think it should be.

If the brains of students are not fully developed, they have no business paying so much and being in school where they should have fully developed brains and should be able to do higher level academic work.

Sorry, but I have no idea. I just found the image on the net. I'm sure you could get it made at a print shop - put it on ebay and you could recoup the costs.



America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
