The snowflakes can start wearing ear plugs.

Quote:The Milo Yiannopoulos train shows no signs of slowing down. The latest? A campus free speech bill named in his honor.

Republican Tennessee lawmakers Rep. Martin Daniel and Sen. Joey Hensley have filed the “Tennessee Freedom of Speech on College Campus Bill,” also affectionately being called the “Milo bill.”

“We just want to ensure that our public universities give all students the right to free expression,” Hensley said at a press conference Thursday announcing the bill. “Too many times we’ve seen classrooms where the professor doesn’t want to hear both sides of an issue, we’ve heard stories from many students that, honestly, are on the conservative side that have those issues stifled in the classroom. We just want to ensure our public universities allow all types of speech.”

Citing the recent unrest at UC Berkeley, “the lawmakers indicated that the violence had hampered the expression of conservative ideas at Berkeley” and that “similar issues have cropped up in Tennessee,” the Tennessean reports, adding that Hensley “said the bill was specifically tailored to defend students with conservative views that he said had been silenced in the past.”

Awesome! Now can we do something about that civil forfeiture Tennessee is abusing the hell out of?

Danm right Tennessee is not Connecticuck

The fact that they had to file a bill about this is in itself an indictment not only of higher education itself but the rest of us for allowing it to happen.

The fact that having the Constitution supposedly to protect this is what's crazy. Why did we have to go this extra mile to protect something that's already been set in stone?

But, I'm glad they did it. This is starting to be the America I know.

UP next: SJW's will demand the removal of the Lincoln memorial because he was a white supremacist, right?

There are still some southern schools that are not batshit crazy liberal. They are always going to have a liberal slant but as long as basic freedoms remain reason will survive.
