I don’t know about that. Show up at an antifa rally and start doing something that makes them uncomfortable, and watch how fast they scream for the cops.spectre wrote: ↑Sun Jul 15, 2018 12:22 pmI'm sure they agree cops shouldn't carry guns within 1000' of an antifa rally because the effect it has chilling of free speech.Abraham wrote: ↑Thu Jul 12, 2018 12:44 pm "I like the Judge's hypothetical to the professors' lawyer whether they would have standing to sue the State to prevent the chilling of free speech in a public park/rally scenario.

Sounds like a lame anti-fa retort...

Re: Three professors sue UT to keep guns out of their classrooms
Has anyone ever found a link to the appellants’ brief? For some reason I can’t log into the 5th Circuit PACER.
Guns and the Second Amendment are almost a side issue in this case. What is more interesting is that the professors appear to take the position that the Constitution affords them a personal, unalienable right to: be the emperors of “their” classrooms (meaning, the classrooms in which the State pays them to teach); to exercise unchecked plenary power over their students; and to exercise authority superior to the Legislature’s in setting educational policy in a State university.
That we have a faction in this country that actually thinks this way is what is truly dangerous.
