Should every freshman who chants a racist slogan automatically be expelled from his college? [View all]

And have his fraternity purged? Is the campus devoid of racism now?

Can a university really have a blind "zero tolerance" policy for speech that is protected? Does OU have some sort of diversity education? Apparently not.

I find myself in agreement with the Oklahoma NAACP President Anthony Douglas, who said on Alex Wagner's show that OU missed an opportunity to educate those students. If not a university, then where -- room 101? Until they see things our way? These are the people that we have to reach.

Do not play the "direct threat" card. It's dangerous to sample reality that way. Didn't some of the same people defend Charlie Hebdo? Is this video a "direct threat?" of "violence?" And it's against the US military under conflict. Treason?

For the record, I don't condone racism. Nor do I condone prosecution for 'thought crime.' How about let's fire some cops for shooting unarmed black men?
