Champions of Free Speech: PC Backlash

August 30, 2016 9:02am CST
University of Chicago! Kudos to the champions of free speech! You're doing a great job toppling the strongholds of liberal suppression, rejecting the dumbing and shutting down critical thinking. We hope to see the rise of refusing the furtherance of disgusting decline of intelligence and freedom among young minds in our universities and colleges. Enough is enough of that cr** liberal Political Correctness. John "Jay" Ellison, PhD Dean of Students The University of Chicago: "We do not support so-called 'trigger warnings,' we do not cancel invited speakers because their topics might prove controversial, and we do not condone the creation of intellectual 'safe spaces' where individuals can retreat from ideas and perspectives at odds with their own"
The university delivered the biggest blow against the stifling effect of political correctness; James Rosen has the story for 'Special Report'

I had to look up "trigger warning." I like this I found: "Trigger warning: If you think this phrase needs to be posted before politically incorrect opinions, you don't belong on the internets."

That's a good one! Our freedom of speech should allow others their freedom of speech, as well. No yelling. No name calling. No character assasinations. Just debate, discuss,disagree and demand facts.

Makes me proud to have taken a couple of classes there. I just wrote a post about how anti-free speech protests turned to riots at UC Berkeley, and I see that another similar post has been made today (and perhaps more).

I saw this story on the news and applaud it. More need to stand up and stop the liberal suppression of free speech.
