I would have asked if I could be really courageous and burn the Mexican flag instead.

How about giving extra credit for exposing the un-American instructor?

Perhaps it’s Monday morning talking, but I think throwing gasoline on some creep professor would be an expression of free speech too.

The libs need to reconcile their own positions. I remember when Clinton jacked up the income tax in 1993, there were a few conservatives who argued that we should simply dissolve the federal government. The libs went berzerk at that, of course, calling those people “unpatriotic.” Yet here they are, demeaning America yet again.

Members of this womans family fought and may have died protecting free speech.
If burning the flag as a 1st amendment write gets extra credit, she should just get an “A” for the class.

Not a shock. At one time Maine’s Veterans for Peace was run on UMO’s servers.

If they dont tolerate thought that they hate, they dont believe in the First Amendment. It isn't necessary to participate in activity that you hate in order to tolerate that activity. Not all laws are good, but if you respect the laws then you tolerate them until they can be corrected.

"...or were arrested defending free speech,I wonder if that includes protesting the university "hate speech" codes...?

"If they dont tolerate thought that they hate, they dont believe in the First Amendment." Since when has being a complete disrespectful jackass have anything to do with free speech?

Would this professor include "arrested defending free speech" someone who held an affirmative action bake sale and refused to shut it down when the university brownshirts stopped by.
No, I didn't think so.

Grosswiler explained that a provocative example of free speech, such as flag burning, demonstrate[s] the courage necessary to support free expression...That Thompson video comes to mind: "It's the soldier not the poet..."

If you got extra credit for advancing the liberal agenda, it should go without saying that anyone found resisting would face severe academic sanction.

She should get a flag that has been damaged beyond repair and hold a flag retirement ceremony in public. She should have the ceremony taped and then turn it in. It’s certainly an exercise of free speech, and my guess is that on this college campus she’ll get a sufficient number of spectators who will show their opposition to a respectful treatment of the American flag that the tape will prove that this act was provocative.

So, basically, the official UM position is that the respected professor is either a fool or a liar.I see a problem with this comment. It seems to eliminate the possibility that the professor is both a fool and a liar.

"

Sure, Professor Grosswiler.
I'll believe in your dedication to "provocative examples of free speech" as soon as you give extra credit to anyone arrested while trying to distribute information and pictures at an abortion "clinic:.

No problem if first the Prof is wrapped and bound tightly with said flag.
