Thanks for the clarification. LET’S GET ‘EM!!!
They need to pass the Chicago Principles resolution right away. I don’t know it verbatim but I remember reading it a few years ago. The very idea “free speech harms” is a dangerous notion - the fact that they are free to say it, however, is why the Chicago Principles need to be ratified.
“Free Speech Harms” is nothing but totalitarianism. They want to regulate all kinds of speech and it isn’t going to stop until it is stopped completely. It needs to be trounced for many reasons, including the simple fact that it is impossible to know what may offend any single person.
Most people, most of the time, don’t want to deliberately offend other people - but when they do, you know it. It isn’t hidden in code words and euphemisms. If someone is offended, the best solution is for that person say why they are offended and maybe dialogue will ensue that will bring people closer together instead of dividing them further. After that, move on. Life is too short to carry a grudge over some silly figure of speech.
It surely would if they try to take mine away. Folks, I’m under Oath.
Williams, like most schools, is nominally private but receives government money. If it takes an anti-free speech attitude, it should receive no government money.
Hillsdale is one of the few that refuses government money in any form — even government-backed student loans. Government money brings government control. So Hillsdale can actually do what it wants.
Fire the Students and the Admissions Office who selected them.
It’s the only way.
Time to bash some commie heads and get the professor who advocated violence against those who wanted to protect it.
It couldn't hit Hillsdale, or that would be the end of Hillsdale, which requires every student to take a course in the U.S. Constitution. Clarence Thomas spoke at Hillsdale's 2016 commencement.
When will people start standing up to these disruptors and come right into their faces with beating drums, ringing large bells, electric megaphones or airhorns to protect their own right to hear invited speakers?
No 1A = no federal funding.
I’m pretty sure that the term “kowtow” is racist.
