No, I really don't. Texas A&M isn't city hall. Why should A&M allow everybody access to their facilities to spew their nonsense?

What's your feeling about A&M students turning out in massive numbers to block the Westboro Baptist Church from protesting a funeral? Westboro Baptist Church surely has the same 1st Amendment rights as Spencer, right?


Westboro should be allowed to speak the same as any BLM, antifa, etc. speaker that has radical views provided they aren't inciting violence. A&M and other public universities cannot legally disallow people to use their facilities due to the 1st amendment and them being public universities. A university like Vanderbilt on the other hand, can do whatever the hell they want.

Keep in mind that I'm explicitly speaking about the university here. The students in turn can then exercise their right to free speech and protest as much as they want so long as they are not infringing upon the Speaker's right to speak through the uses of violence or intimidation.

The A&M students blocking the Westboro Baptist church is a classic example of a non-violent protest. That's exactly how it should be done and the university was never involved in that at all. It was purely student led.

I guarantee that antifa is going to show up and they are going to get violent. There are going to be riots on Auburn's campus, which feeds right into Spencer's goals.

Edit - My question to you is, why do you believe that free speech should be limited to only those people that you agree with?
