You cannot discriminate against speakers and continue to be funded by the public.


Right, so LSU regularly allows speakers on campus. For classes, student orgs, etc. So the first amendment reasonably guarantees that I get an auditorium if I want one?

Same thing for a public high school?

You're not comprehending what I'm saying. A University, High School, whatever, will have some sort of public speaking policy. As long as the speaker follows that policy, they can not be turned away just based on who they are or what their message is.



That is the entire damn crux of this argument. Some of you think it's perfectly fine to turn down a speaker based on who he is or what he says.

The court has said you are wrong.
