I agree they should be expelled. They broke the rules of their institution, and paid for it.

I didn't see the part where these kids were charged with a hate crime, and I am pretty sure all black folks that rap the N word are not millionaires.

Expulsion is over the top to you? Seems pretty logical to me

What did they do that was so bad? They said a word... no laws were broken and you can hear the same word every fricking day in music.

Not everyone would face the same here but as one of the olds here, I guarantee you my parents wouldn't even think of suing over my expulsion. In fact, every day they didn't give me another cent for education would be my lesson. If this kid sulks and sues he's not learning a damn thing.

I'd imagine it would go something like this. But opposite.

^^^^ This. Plus the president said they were creating a "hostile environment for other students". The right action was taken.


Also freedom of speech does not mean you're free from consequences.

They are not being arrested. They are being punished.

Free speech does not protect you from corporations or public institutions. It protects you from being arrested and charged with a crime.


I thought "Words and actions have consequences" was a mantra on this site.

Speech restrictions at a public university?



I'd like to know what rule they were expelled via. Probably some code of conduct catch all.

Wonder what will happen to the angry football player (that should be noted represents the university on higher standard than a frat boy does) that made that response video?
