[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will someone please explain what in the actual hell is going on at these so-called "elite" law schools?  After seeing the way students - and now administrators - shut down conservative speakers, I am completely revolted.  Especially at institutions that supposedly pride themselves on being "bastions of free speech and open debate."  What utter BS.  I sincerely hope the attention-seeking, loudmouth dean, Tirien Steinbach, is fired - though I know she won't be.  There is no free speech going on here.

Meh. The only guarantee you have is you won’t be imprisoned by the government for your speech. This notion that you are owed a platform or audience for reprehensible viewpoints (which much of what passes as “conservative” these days is) is wild — you aren’t. The world is equally free to reject your speech, ridicule you for it and hold you accountable for hateful things you say and do, which includes being canceled professionally. Natural consequences. It’s not like your speech is valid just because you are free to express it without fear of imprisonment.[/quote]

Slow clap.  Beautiful example of exactly the reprehensible behavior exhibited by Stanford law students - and deans.  I have news for you.  You don't INVITE someone to come and speak and then treat them like a pariah - without even letting them speak.  Get over yourself.  And exactly what "hateful" things has this judge said or done?[/quote]

The people who yelled at him didn’t invite him. Do people with beliefs like these guys truly think that their beliefs aren’t wildly unpopular and unreasoned?  The fact that you sucked up to Leonard Leo and got appointed by a reality TV star does not make your viewpoints above reproach [/quote]

What on earth are you babbling about?  The people who didn't want to hear him speak could have - wait for it - simply not shown up.  But then they would have passed up the opportunity they LIVE for, which is emoting on a grand scale, filming it, and posting it online in search of validation and "likes".  I'm actually glad it *was* posted online, so the rest of us can see what utter and complete imbeciles they are.[/quote]

The right to not show up exists for every protester outside an abortion clinic, and I never hear you civility people on about it.

The students protesting pay tuition. They are allowed to show their displeasure for someone invited to their university and no one has to pander to that judge. [/quote]

I'm imagining their outrage (and yours) had a liberal speaker shown up only to be shouted down by conservative protesters.  You'd probably be calling for their arrests.  [/quote]
