Free speech for terrorists (but not for conservatives)



We read:
"Brandeis College in Boston has scheduled our favorite terrorist, Bill Ayers, for a speech. Brandeis is a typical liberal institution and -- apparently -- uses the term "College" loosely. And Brandeis takes its role as a bully pulpit for terrorists seriously.
"This is about freedom of educational opportunity," said Brandeis spokesman Dennis Nealon. "The university has made it clear that it is not going to bar the talk despite the controversial nature of the speaker."

What Ayers has to do with 'freedom' in any form is a mystery for anthropologists of the future to figure out, as Ayers and his wife are quite open about their Communist leanings.

Due to vocal opposition, Ayers' recent trips to speak at Naperville High School in Illinois, an indie bookstore in the same town and at Boston College have all been canceled.

No doubt the students will mount such a disruption that he will be unable to give his talk -- as happens to conservative speakers with no terrorist record such as Tom Tancredo. I'm not holding my breath waiting for it, though.

Don't like liberal speakers? Don't go to listen to them.

You totally missed the point: When a conservative (Tancredo) showed up to speak, the intolerant liberals made such noise and ruckus that he was unable to speak. Rather than debate the issue, they shouted him down and denied his right to speak.

They also denied others from hearing his viewpoint. Allowing only one side of an argument to be heard and denying any other side is the standard tactic of the liberals. Examples of this abound.

---Don't like Tancredo, Coulter, Limbaugh or Horowitz? Don't listen to them, don't break windows, don't interrupt the speech.

Don't like liberal speakers? Don't go to listen to them.This is not a liberal speaker. This is a communist terrorist and murderer. Where are those fabulous SEAL snipers when we really need them.

Sorry - again I have to ask... Jon, are you for allowing Ayers to speak or against it?
I would think you should be supporting it but you seem to be suggesting something along the lines of "they don't let conservatives speak so we shouldn't allow lefties..."
Either you stand for the principle on which this site is based or you do not.
