Make anti-LGBT businesses publicly post their policy.

Enjoy the straight white male privilege while it lasts. Bigots like you will be nothing but an unpleasant footnote in history in a few more years.

Are you going to make it a crime to deny 'rape culture?"

That part of your little plan?

one wonders how rape culture came up in a classical art and literature class.

Good point

The Buzzfeed article gives a lot more detail. It's an interesting case from a Freedom of Speech angle, though I am not sure if the college in question is public or private.

Reed College is private (hence Freedom of Speech is not at play... unless there is an Oregon law that goes further than the US Constitution).

having read the buzzfeed article i can understand the college's position and don't really see a problem.

There are a few issues here. One is the ineffectiveness of these ****holes we call universities.

Mouthy student ******* disrupts his class with his stupid, ignorant personal beliefs. Student gets kicked out of class for being an *******.

Yep, I'm happy with that outcome.

Spoken like a guy who was raised in a trailer and has never seen the inside of a university classroom.

If it's a private university then meh whatever.

If you're disrupting class, the opinion you're presenting doesn't matter either.

FWIW I have made it through (almost) four years of college and have never gotten in any trouble for presenting conservative opinions on any topic, but I am at an engineering school.

I think we ALL know that kid in college, regardless of right-wing or left-wing opinions, who wants to insert his or her political opinions into anything, even when they have absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand.

Given that it was his questioning of the 1 in 5 women in college will be raped statistic that got him his ban (and not the general douchebaggery they highlighted), it seems a bit of a harsh measure given the issues surrounding its validity.

That's not what he was kicked out of class for. You're an idiot. He was kicked out because he made women feel uncomfortable. Remember, that's what we're talking about?

So I assume that you are proposing censoring speech that makes women and your other minorities uncomfortable.

Do you know why Reed College encourages that?

He wasn't disrupting class.
