How about when ben shapiro went to give a speech at Berkeley and there where riots and he got shut down. Riots by the liberals, the suposed "anti nazi anti hate group progressives".
University said no at first cuz of the danger and their security could not handle it. He then had to pay for separate security then the university made some other excuse and still got denied.
What this executive order is aiming for is for people like ben shapiro to speak freely and if people plan on rioting or anything of the sort, the university must put its effort in diffusing the violence and preventing it from happening, not preventing the speaker from coming.

Why aren't riots considered a form of free speech? They are an expression of thought, are they not?
I'm also curious why someone would want to speak at a place that obviously doesn't want them there.

Yes we do, cuz liberals cant handle a difference of opinion.

Oh, we handle them just fine. The problem comes when the difference of one opinione is hateful, dangerous, inciteful, etc...
You can say what you want so long as it's not a platform for hate, that inspires hate, that has the potential for harm...
Is that a little intolerant? Yes, yes it is. But the difference is we are intolerant of people that want to harm others. Hateful speakers want to harm other for simply existing. Our intolerance is a reaction to their intolerance.

We haven't really heard the devil's side of the story. Maybe he was the good guy all along? 
The idea of hell never made sense in the first place. If the devil really is bad, why would he punish you if you do bad things on earth?

Technically, hell doesn't exist according to the original Biblical texts. It got added in later thanks for pitiful translations and a greater focus on stoking fear. Newer translations have it removed completely.

Is that right? As far as I know the 2 people in congres saying anti israel things are still in congres still saying anti israel things. Who was silenced?
|
Did you miss the fact that Congress immediately wrote and passed (407-23) an antisemitism bill after those comments were made?
