KILBOTz 07/21/17 4:10:27 PM #22:	Yes and no. I think there is some speech that simply isn't productive that I am fine with colleges suppressing on their campuses. Primarily it is dehumanizing type language though. Like when transgenders issues first came out calling tansgendered people "it" was pretty common. If you are calling someone an "it" they come into any discussion in a disadvantaged position. Most other types of speech I am fine with. I view colleges as a place to share ideas but that requires a baseline level of respect to your fellow humans so they can bring their ideas to the market as well. --- http://i.imgur.com/O3syCWD.gif http://i.imgur.com/k3YiBdG.gif <cite>KILBOTz posted [p:883345110] in do liberal...
