Quote:Lol, their first amendment right to be idiots has not been infringed upon... the federal government has not done anything to them.


Based on your argument, how come you haven't started a thread about poor TMD?


He also said stupid things, and now his freedom of speech has been limited? When do we protest for poor TMD??


Or, did these idiots say something that goes against a code of conduct of the national fraternity, and they are dealing with this consequences?

 

First of all, the house is located off campus, but that doesn't stop the President of the University from being "outraged".

 

Here's a quote from the article that I linked.

Quote: 

University President John R. Broderick said in a Facebook post that he was "outraged" over the banners and vowed the incident would be reviewed "immediately."

 
“I said at my State of the University address that there is zero tolerance on this campus for sexual assault and sexual harassment,” Broderick wrote. "Any student found to have violated the code of conduct will be subject to disciplinary action."

 

 

The campus "government" was certainly offended.

Quote: 

The ODU Student Government also addressed the signs in a Facebook message and video featuring campus leaders.

 
“An incident occurred this weekend that does not reflect the university’s commitment to the prevention of sexual assault and dating violence,” the Facebook message said. “Not only do these actions taken by a few individuals undermine the countless efforts at Old Dominion University to prevent sexual assault, they are also unwelcoming, offensive and unacceptable
.”

 

This happened off campus, but yet the school is sending the message that this kind of freedom of expression is not allowed by students... at any time... even off campus.
