His avocation is agitation of left-wingers. Lars Larson wants him for the show.

It’s been a while since anyone actually used free speech,particularly offensive speech, on any campus. The college doesn’t know how to react.

He sounds like a gadfly.

But espousing unpopular thoughts is not “behavior.” It is free speech and so long as the student does it respectfully (not interrupting others while speaking, not yelling, etc.) it should not be a problem.

But the one thing liberals cannot stand is unpopular thoughts. Conform or die.

I used to argue with teachers — in high school because I strongly disagreed with them (I even deliberately embarrassed them on more than one occasion), in college (Hillsdale) mostly for the intellectual stimulation. This was never a problem.

“He was not banned because of what he said but because of a series of disruptive behaviors,” Savery told Reason.
