Its    free speech, after all. Does anyone else notice how liberals    come out of the woodwork to support the speech of one of their    own, while striving to silence voices of conservatives?  <\/p>\n<p>    Just this summer, a rodeo clown in Missouri was threatened with    federal prosecution for his temerity to don an Obama mask. In    typical fashion, the NAACP wanted him charged with a hate    crime. He was banned from Missouri rodeos for life, and other    rodeo clowns were forced to attend sensitivity classes    reminiscent of communist Chinas re-education camps. No one    cared when past clowns lampooned Reagan or the Bushes.  <\/p>\n<p>    If professors truly esteem free speech, then why do the    majority of universities have speech codes, specifically aimed    to silence conservatives and Christians? There is no academic    freedom when students at some universities have been expelled    for their refusal to endorse homosexuality. Why have some    universities, like the University of South Carolina, allowed    meeting space to every group and club, except to Christian    groups? Why are terrorists like Kathy Boudin, Howard Machtinger    and President Barack Obamas friends Bill Ayers and Bernadine    Dohrn given professorships and allowed to enjoy their freedom    of speech and academic freedom yet conservative and Christian    students have no such freedoms on campuses throughout America?  <\/p>\n<p>    We need to see universities for what they are  liberal    breeding grounds, full of 1960s elitists who generally despise    conservatives and seek to weed out those who profess Christ. As    liberals, they are the only ones truly deserving of free    speech. Wake up, America  this is who is educating and    indoctrinating our children.  <\/p>\n<p>    DIANE SMITH, Topeka  <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Read more:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/cjonline.com\/opinion\/2013-10-20\/letter-universities-should-value-free-speech-not-just-liberals\" title=\"Letter: Universities should value free speech, not just for liberals\">Letter: Universities should value free speech, not just for liberals<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> It is not surprising that The University of Kansas faculty supported the right of their fellow professor, David Guth, to say he hopes the children of NRA members will be murdered.
