Yep. But it's tricky being a good lefty these days. In this situation, the thing to do is to come out 100% for free speech. How dare that private religious school try to control what is said at their ceremony! Free speech, man!

But in the next thread on censorship of political speech by Google and Facebook you'll need to shift that around 180 degrees - How dare you, you pathetic powerless individual, try to deny these upstanding mega-corporations the right to control all the speech on their Internet!

That's a pretty long video showing the Black protesters. You're right, I don't know what happened before the video began, but no where in that long video does it show the NA approaching them while beating his drum and getting in their faces. I think the outcome would have been fairly obvious if he had done so, but maybe I'm wrong.

By a private institution. He's still free to speak his mind, just not at their graduation ceremony.

Rob Sanders, a Kenton County Prosecutor, confirmed Tuesday that there are multiple investigations into Twitter users who made terroristic threats against Covington Catholic High School.
“We’ve got multiple ongoing investigations into numerous, numerous threats,” Mr. Sanders said Tuesday in a podcast interview with 700 WLW. “There’s probably a dozen law enforcement agencies, if not more involved in this — it’s growing, it’s spreading, there are other jurisdictions now involved in this,” Sanders added.

She's fine enough with this that she says it with a smile on her face.

Well...I guess....at least no one can accuse her (Joy Behar) of being silent re her opinion.

Whoopi: "Why do we keep making the same mistake?" (meaning snap judgements)

Joy Behar: "Because we're desperate to get Trump out of office. That's why."
