A federal judge has ruled Auburn University must let white nationalist Richard Spencer speak on campus.

A lawyer involved in the case on Spencer's side, Sam Dickson, says the decision by U.S. District Judge W. Keith Watkins means Spencer can appear at the student union as originally planned Tuesday night.

Sad that this even required a judge to rule

Im sure the speaker is a POS but seems like a simple first amendment issue

Trump must have made an EO saying that cis white Christian males have free speech again

Dude we're already watching the protests, which consist of marginally attractive white girls dancing next to a guy dressed as a carrot at the moment

Ultimate irony: claiming you need a presence of ideological opposition for "safety" concerns, knowing fully well that these are the exact people most likely to create a scenario increasing the likelihood of violence.

I'm sad that I had to leave Auburn this morning. I would have went to the university just to watch the shite fest that is likely to ensue. But then I'd also be pissed if they started destroying Auburn property.

Auburn Plainsman stream has some verbal altercations going on. Basically sorority chicks talking shite to Spencer supporters.

I am disappointed in the University for trying to stop this man from speaking.
