Much ado about nothing. Trump’s Emory supporters can continue to chalk as long as they abide by the same chalking rules as everyone else. It’s comical that a self-described classical liberal like @krzysmis would support out right vandalism of private property. They can also express themselves politically on campus any number of other ways.
Post #23 @krzysmis (“However, Nobody prevented the little babies from expressing themselves.”)
@krzysmis By “little babies,” you must be referring to the Emory Trump supporters who chose to ignore Emory’s rules regarding chalkings and instead engaged in what amounted to surreptitious vandalism of private property under cover of dark.
Emory chose to enforce its anti-vandalism rules in an even-handed way; Trump and Clinton supporters alike have to comply with the same rules. Trump supporters like yourself need to stop crying about it.
Emory Trump supporters could have followed those rules and chalked in a pro-Trump fashion, worn Trump buttons, put on Trump T-shirts or Trump caps. They were in no way censored despite the shrill and uninformed outbursts of individuals like yourself.
If everyone behaved as these pro-Trump supporters did, then campus walls and buildings would be filled with political sloganeering of all kinds. Who in the world wants to see that? There’s a reason why criminal laws prohibit graffiti.
Post #24 ("MrOdyssey–Do you not see the unfortunate irony of starting a post on free speech with the order to, “be quiet”?)
I see irony in @krzysmis decrying purported “censorship” based on the Emory protestors’ decision to protest speech they found offensive while at the same time @krzysmis vilifies the Emory protestors for complaining.
Principles of free speech does not insulate the speaker from being called out and criticized for ill-informed blather.
I also see hypocrisy in Trump supporters like @krzysmis defending free speech even as their candidate throws out participants at Trump rallies for looking too Muslim:

@krzysmis You may be a paying customer of Emory’s. That doesn’t entitle you to use Emory’s assets as you please anymore than your buying an iphone gives you license to Apple’s assets. Well versed in accounting you are not.
