[tsuke]

yeah, the OP contradicts your bullshit post retard.

[anatta]

Why doesn't the GOP push a bill that would have colleges remain neutral on on public issues?

Oh, wait.....

how can you be neutral in support of free speech?

[Darth Omar]

How about when she said someone should put rat poison in Justice Stevens' creme brulee, for starters?

How about when Elizabeth Warren talked about conservatives having their bodies 'cut open for science'?

Should we hold our breath waiting for Berkeley to ban her?

University of Wisconsin students who disrupt speeches and demonstrations could be expelled and campuses would have to remain neutral on public issues under a bill Republican legislators are pushing this week.

Your RW sites didn't mention that she said Republicans should donate their bodies to science...in the event of their DEATHS.

I hate that, but I hate violence and hecklers who shout down/interfere with free speech even more.

I've always had a generally positive view of the ACLU, minus their stance on gun rights and potentially illegal immigration

ACLU defends Coulter after Berkeley speech cancellation

The American Civil Liberties Union is condemning the threats that forced Ann Coulter to cancel her speech at the University of California, Berkeley.

“The unacceptable threats of violence that have led to the ‘hecklers’ veto’ of Ann Coulter’s speech at Berkeley are inconsistent with free speech principles that protect us all from government overreach,” David Cole, the ACLU’s national legal director, said in a statement Wednesday after Coulter canceled her appearance, which had been scheduled for Thursday.

“Hateful speech has consequences, particularly for people of color, LGBTQ people, immigrants, and others who have been historically marginalized,” Cole continued. “But if the government gets to decide which speech counts as hate speech, the powers that be may later feel free to censor any speech they don’t like.”

He added: “For the future of our democracy, we must protect bigoted speech from government censorship. On college campuses, that means that the best way to combat hateful speech is through counter-speech, vigorous and creative protest, and debate, not threats of violence or censorship.”

Poor snowflakes, even the ACLU doesn't agree with you.

Two totally different issues.

What's so hateful about her speech?

She's a whore. Whores will do/say anything for money. Whenever she has another book coming out, she's back to the same shit




In her new book, “Godless,” right-wing pundit Ann Coulter writes of the 9/11 widows:

These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzies. I have never seen people enjoying their husbands’ death so much.
