RE:”I hope these students find the courage to sue — not because anyone agrees with their words but because the First Amendment needs a defense. They said terrible things, but they did not violate the law. Ironically, the only lawbreaker here is a university so incompetent that it created First Amendment martyrs out of students who redefine the word “crass.”

It would be an interesting case and would send many into a tizzy(and be entertaining) but my guess is that the expelled students feel so publicly humiliated that they just want to hide under a rock now.

And without a plaintiff there is no case, and no real debate.

I am disappointed in Megyn Kelly who prides herself on being a legal expert doing two segments on this situation from aan emotional standpoint ignoring the legal issues.

IMO, Megyn jumped the shark some time ago. I've come to expect this sort of nonsense from her.

“I am disappointed in Megyn Kelly who prides herself on being a legal expert doing two segments on this situation from aan emotional standpoint ignoring the legal issues. “

Yes, she was clearly not being “fair and balanced” on this matter. Then Hannity had two Black conservatives on, and they were both completely behind the notion that this was a First Amendment issue despite the despicable racist nature of the chant. But like Kelly before him, Hannity was telling both of these guys that “they were wrong!”
And finally there’s this issue of “who can use the “N” word. I have a black friend who uses it more or less continually. He even “greets” his grown children with the phrase “how’s it going nixxer.” And I’ve personally witnessed him “saying hello” to every black person in a convenience store using the sam phrase. To my mind, you can’t have it both ways.

Sean Hannity was pathetic last night, working himself into a frenzy. At one point he had two black guests on (I don’t remember their names but have seen them on Fox many times before), who were trying to talk some calm common sense, but he brushed them aside with “You’re wrong.”
