Just to argue with their understanding of free speech doesn’t address the Constitutional protection for free exercise of religion.

It precedes free speech in the first amendment and is a separate right.

Free exercise is the right to be YOUR religion 24/7 wherever you happen to be.

BS!! Clemson is more religious-oriented than 95% of all other campuses. "Praying" does not require placards or a megaphone.

Those who want to preach on campus will have to follow the rules and go where you wont disrupt classes.

Greenville talk radio has a good grasp on this situation and is following up big-time.

Just need to politely point out to him that the entire country is a “free speech area” and say you’ll pray for him.

Freedom of speech and freedom of religion are severely restricted i the tiny little minds of liberals. I miss the days when even liberals supported the Bill of Rights and our God-given liberty, but that was a long time ago.

I would yank my kid out of that college so fast he would have to go back for his body parts.

All PC people. You are no longer welcome in our country. Go find another one to screw up!

Shame on Clemson, foisting these Leftists on S. C. This little Gestapo wannabe should have been handed a copy of the Constitution with the First Amendment underlined and a notice that he was being sued for a civil rights violation. If you don’t use your freedom, you lose your freedom.

It seems impossible that it has come to this. I never could have imagined that this would happen in our country.

Many mistake freedom of speech for liberty to say anything at any time and not be subject to consequences. Not even a little child has that kind of freedom. “Watch your mouth.” Right language, like right thinking, does not come naturally. Praying in accord with the Creator, at least as He invites and teaches prayer, not an activity to be used in the interest of making political points.

Not an Ivy League mess, but Clemson is trying to be!

Rankings and Brags | About | Clemson University, South Carolina

www.clemson.edu/about/rankings.html

Clemson is one of the 28 “Public Ivy” schools based on the attraction and retention of excellent students in addition to educating them for significantly less than those students would pay to attend an Ivy League school according to Educated Quest’s 2014-15 list.

Clemson University needs tol, that praying on campus, or anywhere in the United States is a designated free speech area.

READ the BILL OF RIGHTS!

Students need to resist and pray anyway.

When the school punishes them, then file the law suits.

Let’s have the debate!

The ENTIRE UNITED STATES is a free speech area.

Per the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution.

I’m so sick of these Thugs!

Pull your kids out of this University if they are going to college there,

The free speech area is from the atlantic, to the pacific. Especially at a public land grant university. Laugh at him and keep praying. You’ll own him in court.
