Oddly, kudos to Stanford for being hip to the nothingburger, though discipline should have been leveraged against Wallace for the email, which was - IMHO - NOT protected speech (see below; The Federalist Society should have litigated the matter):
Try mocking Black Lives Matter or LGBT and see where that gets you on a liberal campus.
Yahoo News I'm sure wouldn't be defending "free speech" then.
>>His offense: sending an email flyer to fellow law students in January that he pretended was from the Federalist Society
That isn’t “mocking”, that is fabrication and a hoax.
But AssPress, YahooooNews, and the NYet Times all make stuff up so no big whoop.
>>Wallace’s predicament drew national attention from both free speech groups and conservatives. It served as another example of the intense debate over political speech on college campuses in America.
What “free speech groups”? What “conservatives”?
Nothingburger:
“The complaint was resolved as expeditiously as possible, and the respondent and complainant have been informed that case law supports that the email is protected speech.”
Thirty-two and still a child. Astounded? If he would have mocked BLM or antifa or trans rights he would have been out of there in one day.
prolly not going to happen. Very soviat like though.
Wow, look at that. Yahoo found an example of a free speech issue on a college campus in which a leftist is the victim.
See, America? Leftist speech is being squelched on college campuses.
Forgery is not satire. This guy should never graduate law school if he doesn’t even understand that.
Anyone surprised that this lowlife will be working for the Federal government?
“I was astounded,” Wallace, 32, said in an interview Wednesday.

This was what caught my eye. the guy is 32 and still in school. He’s officially middle-aged and *still* in school!
That’s not freedom of speech, that’s false representation and defamation. How does his guy get off saying it’s freedom of speech?
The same people up in arms over this complaint are perfectly fine with the criminal charges being pursued by Biden’s corrupt, out of control DOJ against someone who tweeted humorous, obviously satirical memes encouraging likely Biden supporters not to vote (or to vote by texting some phone number, something no non-retarded adult could think was serious). First Amendment for me, but not for thee.
It was satire and pretty obviously so and in bad taste but it was just satire. His mistake was making it look like it came from the Federalist Society. If he hadn’t have done that, I’d be fine with it.
Aw, gee, lawfare.
Who invented that?
You can be sure if it were a member of the Federalist Society that had sent a “joke” about BLM, his graduation and diploma would be canceled, his reputation smeared and he’d have NO recourse.
Wallace, 32?........................
Apparently he missed the courses concerning fraud and defamation.
Oh, now Yahoo knows what satire is. Don’t seem to know what it is when done by Babalon Bee or a conservative. And, don’t think Wallace’s act was necessarily satire as much as a political attack on the Federalist.
Say What Now?
It's either/or. Either conservative or libertarian.
Can't be both.
