Wrong. We should always defend freedom of speech. Most importantly speech we don't agree with.
And you're clearly not a "free speech absolutist," because you're saying "oh they didn't care about the constitution so now I'm not going to care about it either."
Always funny when someone claims to be for freedom of speech while making the argument that it's ok to suppress speech.
And to your last sentence - evidently what "they" want is also what you want: more daddy government. Because here you are supporting it.
Lol. You're right we should defend speech we don't agree with. Like I said I disagree with the WTAMU president. But I also acknowledged that this is the society that leftist/students wanted. They are getting what they voted for.
Perhaps there was a time back in the day when conservatives and liberals could agree on things, like Freedom of Speech, and we would rally together and defend it. Now it just seems, to me at least, that leftists want to be saved from the consequences of their poor choices while not changing their beliefs. They want their cake and want to eat it.
Like I mentioned, do you think the students/media would be this upset if a Minstrel Show was planned on campus and the president cancelled it?
