State lawmakers unanimously pass free speech bill. Professors oppose the effort.
- Thread starter Banjo
- Start date
Reading the rhetoric of those promoting this bill makes it clear that it is coming from those with a particular political bias. Therefore there is a strong implication that it's purpose is not to promote more freedom of expression, but less, couched in the language of public safety. Whenever I want to promote legislation that is useful to me, but onerous to others, if I can I shall promote my legislation on the basis of public safety, for who can stand against safety?
Those promoting this bill will argue the effect will be similar regardless of political bias, and therefore there is no bias in the Bill's effect. This argument is wrong if the legislation is intended to affect mainly College Campuses where one political bias is dominant over another.

Anyone reading the article would realize Banjo is spreading fake news and the bill is the complete opposite of his thread/article title (the bill aims to ban free speech zones in public campuses, something that intellectuals would of course oppose)
thanks.
*corrected as the thread title is a carryover of actual article's own title
