The view endorsed by Rep. Jared Polis (this passage apparently both as to public universities and private universities, start at 1:57:28):
It seems like we ought to provide more of a legal framework, then, that allows a reasonable likelihood standard or a preponderance of evidence standard [for deciding whether to expel college students accused of sex offenses]. If there are 10 people who have been accused, and under a reasonable likelihood standard maybe one or two did it, it seems better to get rid of all 10 people. Were not talking about depriving them of life or liberty, were talking about them being transferred to another university, for crying out loud.

Well, that’s a novel approach to “due process”.
Let’s apply this standard to politicians accused of misconduct. I mean “Were not talking about depriving them of life or liberty,” were merely talking about them being made to work for a living, for crying out loud.
Guilt by dissociation............................
Hey Jared!
Can we apply that standard to ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS?
The face masks are off.
Wow...I didn’t know that he said that.
Well, THAT’S telling, isn’t it?
Collective punishment is justified here because all men are guilty by definition.
What is really sickening is all of the people that applauded when he said that.
The problem is that as a society, for far too long we have forced individuals to violate the first amendment. No, I am not talking about the religion clause. I am talking about the assembly clause.
The first amendment guarantees the right to peacefully assemble. And just as the rest of the first amendment includes the negative, i.e. the right to NOT do something, the right to assemble also includes the right to NOT assemble. No one can force you to join a church or book club or gym if you do not want to.
Further, we can assemble for ANY reason as long as it is peaceful. That include for the purpose of business. So The People have the right to conduct business with whomever they want to and they also have the right to NOT conduct business with whomever they want.
In short, any law which requires a business to serve anyone that it does not wish to server, is unconstitutional.
So a dumped girlfriend has the power to really get back at the boy and there’s nothing he can say or do about it. This is more political correctness. We need laws to deal with the proliferation of political correctness.
BTW, what happened to turning the case over to the police? What the university is doing is acting as cop, judge, and jury. But they have no requirement to be legal or just or fair. Just correct.
He’s also a homosexual.
They think their kids won’t be effected or that they can use influence to get their kids out of trouble.
Collective punishment is ok because Polis is a homosexual. So he thinks that only openly heterosexual men would be affected. He personally would not ever be affected by this, because his excuse would be that he is a homosexual, and we all know that homosexuality is a recognized grievance group.
A recent article identified in Edward II court records as Roger F*edbythenavel. His descendants are alive and well, all serving in the Congress.
Scratch the surface of a Democrat and you see the totalitarian underneath.
This is what Stalin felt, also. “Better that 50 million innocent people get imprisoned or executed than one anti-Stalin rebel go free.”
Why do I never hear: “We’re not depriving them of cake, we’re just making them seek out a different bakery.”
There will come the Day when this will come back to haunt them. I believe that Day is coming soon.
In a just world, our DoJ would be filing Civil Rights violations against universities on a regular basis.
