College suspends student for asking questions about gun control [during a public forum]

"A Connecticut community college suspended a student veteran for his aggressive questioning of Democratic Gov. Dannel Malloy during a public forum,....

Shortly thereafter, Saucier received notice from the administration that he was suspended on grounds that his “continued presence on campus would present a danger to the persons, property and/or academic process of the College....

The college attempted to persuade Saucier to plead guilty to the charges and undergo counseling. He refused, opting instead for a formal hearing. At the hearing, administrators refused to let him play his recorded video, which he argued would acquit him by showing that he did nothing wrong. Saucier was found guilty of all charges. His suspension was lifted, but any further trouble from him and he will be expelled, administrators said..... The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education has accused ACC of violating Saucier’s free speech and due process rights by disciplining him for speaking his mind and subjecting him to a sham trial....

“ACC’s myriad violations of Nicholas Saucier’s rights, effective rewriting of its conduct procedures, and failure to rectify its errors should give all Americans great concern,” said Peter Bonilla, director of FIRE’s Individual Rights Defense Program, in a statement. [H/T instapundit]

“So...questioning and elected official is now an ‘offense’.”

No.

Only brilliant,intellectual, Progressives are allowed to noisily protest the actions of any right-wing, knuckle-dragging, bible-thumping, gun-loving Christian moron.

Right-wing, knuckle-dragging, bible-thumping, gun-loving
Christian morons are not allowed to protest the actions of brilliant, intellectual, Progressives because brilliant, intellectual, Progressives are genetically superior.

See? Ya’ know?

I hope you are not referring to me. Huxley and Orwell had this figured out a long time ago.

The title and tenor of this article seem misleading. It doesn't appear Saucier was suspending for merely asking questions.

I'm guessing the claim Saucier followed the gun-grabber governor to his car as part of an escalating encounter while shouting obscenities had something to do with it.

Sue everyone involved into bankruptcy. Own their homes. Break up their marriages. Make their children cry.

The very raison de être for “higher learning” is the thing they loathe: hard questions.

Good for you!

Consider my home state of Alabama. It’s a beautiful state, with the mountains in the north and the seashore in the south, although its seashores do not compare of those of the Carolinas. And its politics are the very opposite of those in New England.

“...although its seashores do not compare of those of the Carolinas...

Alabama beaches have whiter sand and clearer water than the Carolina beaches. But those Atlantic beaches have some surfing.
