I knew Carson stepped in it when he went there but to be honest arent’ all educational edipucations doing that right now with anything having to do with Christianity?
Carson should have went right back at it exactly that way.
Speech is already strictly monitored and restricted on college campuses nationwide.
or anything other than liberal orthodoxy...it’s why Ann Coulter gets pie in the face, conservative speakers are cancelled soon after their lectures are announced, and anything related to guns or Christianity is verbotten.
But hey, can’t go messing with those first amendment rights!
Yes, and the restrictions placed on tax exempt institutions (i.e.churches).
It’s always a conundrum when the Constitution is used as a shield by people who have no qualms about denying its protection to others. Making the elimination of tenure a condition for any school to continue receiving tax dollars might be a place to start in weeding out the vermin infesting colleges and universities.
And Israel and capitalism and profit and 2nd amendment and abortion and BLM; what other constitutional rights do the colleges violate?
Carson would have been better off describing it as applying Civil Rights principles to speech and ideology through an EEOC-like entity designed to ensure that speech and ideology are just as protected on the campuses of colleges that receive Federal $$$ as other protected rights.
It’s long past time we coopted the Left’s language and methodologies, particularly here. There’s no reason, given the Supreme Court’s recent disparate impact ruling that Conservatives should be identified as a “protected class” and treated as such on college campuses.
