Hey, it's more of that oh-so-enlightened "free speech for me, but not for thee!" approach to opinions that differ from your own. This time it's UNC-Chapel Hill, where some thuggish student hooligans disrupted a speech by a former Virginia congressman who had been invited to speak by a legitimate student organization. Way to tarnish the Tar Heel name, folks!
Note to all: THE FIRST AMENDMENT APPLIES TO EVERYBODY, NOT JUST PEOPLE YOU HAPPEN TO LIKE. And why don't you go acquaint yourself with a fellow named Voltaire?
Idiots. Self-righteous idiots. Why is it that it's always the self-righteous moral masters of the Left who think they can get away with silencing all other viewpoints? This sort of stuff seems to happen on college campuses nationwide with depressing regularity. A similar incident had happened at UNC (again!) recently. Here's another take on the trend since the cop-out response to speech you don't like is to call it that magic term "hate speech."
UPDATE: Commentary.
