Ohio bill would stop conservative speech stopping

Universities and colleges are nearly universal in their leftist political views, indoctrinating young minds in progressive (aka regressive) thinking. If you want to pull an "A" from your professor, you better write like Marx and think like a Bolshevik. If you don't, you will be demoralized, scholastically disenfranchised, demonized, vilified, and be told or made to shut up.

In schools of "high learning" across the country, higher learning isn't the priority, it's recruiting for Antifa. We have seen it at Berkeley, the University at Buffalo, and many other schools that ought not to receive public funding.

Finally, there's a bill crafted by two Ohio Republican lawmakers that would stop universities from disinviting controversial speakers based on any potential negative reactions or protests the guests might trigger.

It's part of a Campus Free Speech Act that also aims to get rid of so-called free speech zones and allow for First Amendment activities across entire campuses.

The left typically hates free speech and will hate this bill because it eliminates safe zones where many a snowflake dwells, and it allows for the First Amendment to be utilized for its intended purpose: to protect all speech, including that which they don't like. 

It also promotes and protects intellectual diversity, which the left also hates. They only want one tune to be sung on campuses. 

Republican Reps. Wesley Goodman and Andrew Brenner announced the act on Tuesday at the Ohio statehouse.

This is not free speech

The act, which is expected to be introduced in the coming weeks, aims to prohibit administrators from taking action "that limits or chills the expression of any member of the campus community or their invited guests based on the content of the expression," Goodman said in a news release.

It prevents "heckler's vetoes" by "prohibiting universities from disinviting speakers based on the potential reaction, opposition, offense, or irritation taken to the speaker's expression."

Under this act, students will be able to bring a cause of action against the institution they believe infringes on their free speech rights.

So people like Ann Coulter, Ben Shapiro, and even Milo Yiannopoulos will be afforded their First Amendment rights, along with the students who want to hear what they have to say.
