UConn students ARRESTED for 'ridiculing' speech in viral video

this is crazy... 2 students were arrested for improper mouthing off.

Two University of Connecticut students were arrested Monday after video allegedly showed them using racial slurs.

The school confirmed to Campus Reform that the men were charged under a Connecticut statute that makes it a crime to "ridicule" certain people.

obviously unconstitutional.... I believe NYC and San Francisco did the same thing on legislation.

walter williams talks about the latest in the universities. details the latest in university PC insanity.

he offers a solution 1 state is doing to deal with this issue.

State governors and legislators can learn something from their Alaskan counterparts, who slashed public spending on the University of Alaska by 41%. There's nothing better than the sounds of pocketbooks snapping shut to bring a bit of sanity to college administrators.

41% of the university budget??? wow.

apparently some other states are doing it too, but not as much as Alaska did.

States are cutting university budgets. Taxpayers aren't interested in funding campus kooks

state govts are getting tired of funding this bullshit. many of them are public universities (if you can call them that) who get funded by state govts. rising tuition rates are part of that story.
