omitting words is censorship. what happened to that freedom of speech you were spouting about earlier?



in what universe is censoring words "freedom of speech"?



she

clearly you are fibbing about reading the article even once, much less twice.
Sorry, she was whining about a whole lot of nothing. Omitting words in a college transcript is not a violation of the freedom of speech.

Nothing is preventing her from printing all the offensive language she likes. Heck, no one stopped her from saying it either. Freedom of speech is still intact for her.

What are the consequences of stating the truth? Should there be consequences for stating the truth?

Universities have been run and controlled by Marxists and Anarchists for the last 40 years. They have become nothing more than institutes of Marxist indoctrination, social engineering and mass brainwashing.

Most of these so called "college graduates" learn nothing except the art of parroting and regurgitating the same nonsense these Socialist professors have been spewing for years.

Many graduate with a worthless degree in Community Organizing or Feminist studies, no relevant work skills or experience, some with over 100K in debt.

Stating what truth? Voicing one's opinions and using racial slurs isn't really something to be proud of, nor shocked when people find that offensive.

I think that's called "censorship." You don't think that's a violation of free speech?

Seriously? It was a college transcript, if you want to play word games, then have fun with that. And no, it doesn't bother me that you edited my posts....Though I think it does violate the TOS.

No, omitting racial slurs on a transcript is not a violation of freedom of speech. The speech itself was never censored.

Exactly, apparently right wingers think people shouldn't have the freedom of speech to be upset over some idiot using racial slurs. Right winger logic, freedom of speech for only the speech right wingers agree with.
