So?



Students aren't allowed "safe zones" but were gonna set up Jeffrey Beauregard Sessions in one of his own?
Cause that makes a lot of sense.


"others objected to the late notice and limited audience for such a high-profile speaker"

"many conservatives saying that only liberal viewpoints are welcome on many college campuses, stifling free exchange and overly sensitive students finding alternative viewpoints too offensive to hear."

Why all the fuss about this on College campuses?
If college students wanted to find alternative viewpoints in this day and age wouldn't they be able to?
Surely they could, they're in college for goodness sakes.

It’s ironic, said Spencer McManus, a third-year student from California, “that this attorney general is coming to our campus to tell us to exercise our constitutional rights, when he and the president have repeatedly condemned those who have exercised those rights. … 

“Holding an event that creates a safe space for the attorney general — and such a safe space that you don’t even invite people who commit to not disrupt the event while it’s ongoing — demonstrates a certain amount of hypocrisy,” said Heidi Li Feldman, a professor at the law school who said she had been denied permission to attend.

“To invite somebody who purports to be an authority on free speech who so profoundly misunderstands the theories and law of free speech in our country … is laughable,” she said.

Some students expressed dismay that their own invitations seemed to be revoked as the day went on, with many sharing a message they had received: 

“You RSVP’d earlier today to an invitation to hear Attorney General Jeff Sessions, sponsored by the Center for the Constitution. Regrettably, the email you subsequently received indicating you have a seat for the event was in error. Our records indicate that you were not part of the Center’s student invitation list, which includes student fellows of the Center (students who signed up to attend events sponsored by the Center) and students enrolled in the classes taught this semester by the Center’s Director, Professor Randy Barnett. As stated in the initial invitation email, the invitation was non-transferable and intended only for the individual to whom it was sent. Unfortunately, we will not be able to offer you a seat for the event.

“We regret any inconvenience.”

"Randy Barnett, director of the Center for the Constitution (At Georgetown), which offers programs (Including this one) “placing special emphasis on how best to remain faithful to the Constitution’s text,” did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday."

Lots of times?
Whats not being said?
Tells you everything you need to know.

Jeffrey Beauregard Sessions is a coward who would have never given this speech unless the halls were packed with people friendly to him.

It's the same exact thing conservative activist wanna act so offended about.


Spare us.
Please.

Oh yeah. There's a "Free speech zone" for this event.

"school officials had told students they could voice their objections only within a designated 
“free speech zone” which she said was a tiny, isolated corner of the campus"

What if it was a "second amendment zone"?
Then what?
