Spokane Falls CC Decides that 1st Amendment's actually a good thing

Update on a story covered on this blog this past spring.

Spokane Falls Community College has decided to change its policies on student groups distributing fliers and having speakers after it settled with student pro-life activist Beth Sheeran, who'd been forbidden from holding a small, not intrusive pro-life event a the college last spring and threatened with expulsion if she did.

I'm glad to see one of our institutes of higher learning has decided that freedom of speech is okay.

1. Why are do Leftists, who scream for everyone else to be tolerant, turn out to always be the ones who are the MOST INtolerant of free speech and other people's ideas??

Double standard alert!

3. I don't think for a minute this issue is dead. Soon after Beth Sheeran has moved on academically they will rewrite the "campus free speech" policy to once again make only leftist speech free.

4. The first amendment does not give you a right to free speech. You are born with the right to assemble and have free speech. The first amendment says congress shall not interfer with those inalienable rights. Do not let anyone stop you from speaking out or assembling.
