Can’t we just outlaw hate?

You mean ayatollah Hussein 0bama hasn't already issued an executive order on this?

Expelled for speaking like an idiot?

I can see 14th amendment violations all over the place with that move.

(Nothing's so small it can't be blown out of proportion.)

Your handle there is right on the mark. The academic & media personnel, who more & more define what we focus on, have become increasingly caught up in a flight of neurotic compulsion, where freedom of speech & of association, must be destroyed in the pursuit of a Compulsion For Uniformity.

Like the other true zealots, who burned dissenters at the stake, or lopped off the heads of young girls, from noble families, in earlier manifestations, privacy in a purely social gathering--or private phone conversation--today, must, of course, be repudiated with a vengeance. Whether in the forced sale of a sports franchise, or the destruction of a college career, the zealot with the power will rush to prove his zealotry.

If people were expelled for that, they couldn’t keep up with the expulsions — of all races, plus faculty.

I wonder what will happen when an all-black fraternity has a similar video leak?

Whether that happens of not, does not change the basic priority; that, in my opinion, is in recognizing that people have a fundamental privacy right, not to have their private conversations or communications, in a purely social setting, broadcast to the world.

Is anyone--anyone--completely comfortable with the idea that there should be a public right to anyone's private remarks in social settings?
