A former senior advisor to Nancy Pelosi, now on the Civil Rights Commission, wants to restrict free speech on campus because college student brains are not completely formed…..
…. which begs the ultimate “D’oh” question:
So why allow them to vote ?
Wait,.. wha.. huh?…
(Via Daily Caller) A Democrat on the U.S. Civil Rights Commission has urged campus restrictions on First Amendment-protected speech because, he believes, the still-developing brains of college students cannot properly process certain dangerous ideas.
The civil rights commissioner is Michael Yaki, a former senior adviser to House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.
The Washington Post’s Eugene Volokh was present at a commission on a briefing on sexual harassment law in education last week when Yaki made his bizarro comments.
The civil rights commissioner said he favors outlawing speech that would be grossly unpopular, such as “a slave auction at a fraternity engagement” or a celebration of Latino culture that involves “making everyone dress as janitors and mop floors.”
Yaki also wants to turn Miss America-type pageants into campus speech crimes. He expressed his belief in the unacceptable dangers of “a situation involving women” in which they “parade around in skimpy clothing and turn in some show or something.” (read more)
Like seriously, when are these demons going to get their asses kicked!!!!
“A former senior advisor to Nancy Pelosi, now on the Civil Rights Commission, wants to restrict free speech on campus because college student brains are not completely formed…..”
He simply misspoke.
He meant CONformed.
Unfrigginbelievable…..Restriction on Free Speech in colleges? What are we in Communist China because that’s exactly what they do in colleges there. This is insane.
I am surprised they would want to restrict their speech at all as most college students have recently completed 12 years of indoctrination(ahem)…I mean education and usually are quick to regurgitate the official government narrative. Some are waking but I believe most are too far gone unfortunately
So unformed brains should not be sent to foreign countries to kill others with unformed brains. Only politicians should be sent to war, with their perfectly formed brains.
