I don't think blowing up a college campus to intimidate people with different ideas is what freedom of speech means. Their goal is to make security costs so high that the school cancels conservative speakers which is what many of the colleges do.
These liberal college kids are anti-freedom of speech for other people. They love free speech for themselves...nobody denies that. Free speech protects the speech of people you don't agree with.
It would be a good social experiment for conservatives to conduct violent protests like this on college campuses when a liberal speaker comes. I suspect you are gonna have a completely different hot take on that.
There is always a different set of rules for liberals.
Get a clue, guys. Somalia and Saudi are theocracies. We have a First Amendment because the founders, who wanted a limited government (like today's conservatives) did not cotton to the idea of a theocracy.
Only on CD does a discussion get this bass-ackwards.
Aren't theocracies among the most conservative, especially as far as the highly restrictive laws go?
Many liberals seem think simply being religious makes a person a theocrat.
What is funny is liberals act like conservatives who are concerned about Islamic terrorism are racist, but then accuse conservatives of being like Islamic terrorists.
In reality liberals are closer to being Islamic than conservatives. Note how upset liberals got a Trump's travel ban. Notice it's liberals not conservatives who defend the right of women to wear burkas. There are even liberals who are pro-Sharia law.
Many liberals are just naive about Islam. They want to like it because it's not Christian. They don't understand that Islam conflicts with Western values and is a danger to the future of Western Civilization.
Notice it's liberals not conservatives who defend the right of women to wear burkas. .
I did notice that.
Do you believe that people should wear uniforms dictated by governments? MAGA Hats? Motorcycle Jackets that indicate they might be criminals?
I think "liberals" are protecting the basic liberties in that way. You know - if Liberals wouldn't have stood up for Rushbo when he was buying massives doses of opiates he would be have been run through the wringer and maybe in jail.
Perhaps that can help you see the consistency? Liberals are going to fight for the rights of even the hate mongers (the ACLU does).
"Bathed in the sunlight of Mexico’s dry season, his dreadlocks tumbling down his back, a man who went by the name “John Galton,” an apparent nod to the hero of Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged," observed almost two years ago, “There’s pockets of freedom all over the world if you’re willing to live in freedom.”
Galton paid a high price for that freedom. He was gunned down Friday by a band of men who stormed his home in Acapulco,"
"He envisioned himself as a prophet of American entrepreneurship — but freed from the constraints of the American nation-state."
The conservatives back then were known as loyalists, Torries, and traitors.
