Liberals would treat them like they have other conservative speakers: assault them, scream them down, intimidate them, and the like. You never see this behavior by conservatives.

They are allowed and, in fact often do, speak on college campuses. If students choose to disrupt them, that does not infringe their right to free speech. Infringrement of the right to free speech only occurs when there is governmental action.

I do think that a college campus should be a place for the free exchange of ideas, regardless of whether you agree or disagree with the person. However, your question was about free speech.

What are you talking about liberals love free speech! Unless it is speech that makes them irate then it has to be killed. Plain and simple Rushy, Coulter and Horowitz would not be able to speak for they are considered too conservative. That is why I do not live on campus, I just do not want to deal with all those liberal and their speech hypocrisy. Hope this helps. --- Jeff

It's a form of self defense. It stems from fear and not having good ground to stand on. It is usually childish and shallow.

If you cant win in the correct fashion, cheat. Lib Manifesto, 101.

Most liberals do not hate free speech. They can get pissed off when they hear tools like Limbaugh and Coulter going at it, but most real liberals are happy to let these people speak as long as everyone else gets their say as well.

I'm sorry that you are severely misinformed about the affinity liberals have for the freedom of speech guaranteed in the Bill of Rights.

Why do they need to speak on campus? They are already on television nightly. I'm sure they have spoken on many campus'. I know for a fact they have. David Horowitz spoke at my undergrad school. His arguments are full of holes and are often misleading but he was allowed to speak. I'd never boo him off campus. Once you start asking the guy questions, he mumbles and can't answer them in a straight way because his logic is so poorly developed its laughable.
Students have the right to boo him. That's free speech too. Obviously you're opposed to students having free speech? They are the one's paying the tuition after all. All these speakers insult education, insult minorities, insult women, insult those not in power, insult the working poor, insult everyone who doesn't think like them, why should they be given a free ticket by having the audience sit on their hands during their speaking? If you're insulted do you just sit there and take it? Or, do you fight back?

We don't hate free speech , we hate liars that lie about free speech. All three should not be allowed to spew hate all over the country, and lie like dogs. I think old Adams Apple Coulter has just about ran out of places to speak except on Fox news.

Just not allowed on any college campus today. Only free speech is liberal speech.
