For frick's sake, it's a classroom where you look at the legal issue from so many angles, regardless of some douchebag's feelings.

This line of thinking is so dangerous because, like you alluded, destroys the essence of free exchange of ideas.

Education is about learning and growing as a person. How can we expect learning to occur when a student doesn't feel safe? In order to nurture education, students should be protected from dangerous or harmful ideas that could disrupt the learning process. It's exactly why Socrates never said anything offensive to his students to protect them. We could learn from his example.

Actually, it was Aristotle that created the safe space.

Sounds to me like there's a bunch of babies all around.

“Although this email was upsetting to us, we could only imagine what it was like for these students. Some of them are twenty-two year-old 1Ls, less than six months into their legal education. But we did not have to wait long to find out. Leaders of the Federalist Society chapter and of the student Republicans reached out to us to tell us how traumatized, hurt, shaken, and angry, were their fellow students. Of particular concern to them were the students who are in Professor Peller’s class who must now attend class knowing of his contempt for Justice Scalia and his admirers, including them. How are they now to participate freely in class? What reasoning would be deemed acceptable on their exams?”

This statement is by the professors who responded about the students who support Scalia....

And the Black Law students response basically said, yeah it sucks for them but look how much worse we have it.

I think that one whizzed by you

I ain't reading all that shite, just tell me who I'm supposed to be angry at.

Whitey. In particular, any whitey who might deem it fit to mourn and praise Antonin Scalia - an alumnus of Georgetown, BTW, which is why this is relevant.

The Federalist Society is all white.
