What? Only 60%?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Jonathan Turley reported on an interesting poll about college students and their fear of openly speaking their minds, especially in classrooms.

The Buckley annual survey found that almost 60 percent of college students fear sharing an opinion in classrooms or on campuses. That tracks other polls by different groups.  Yet, colleges and universities continue to exclude Republican and conservative faculty members and maintain environments of speech intolerance.The poll shows a sharp increase from just last year with 63% reporting feeling intimidated in sharing opinions different than their peers. That is almost identical to the 65 percent found in other polls.

I had two thoughts immediately upon reading this article:

  1. What? Only 60%, after all the hard work woke liberals in academia have put into indoctrinating their students and putting the fear of anti-woke-ness into them?
  2. Even 60% must be mighty pleasing to Biden and his woke supporters, although the remaining 40% will spur them to action, seeing as how their goal is to have 100% of students intimidated into at least silence, if they can’t make them submit totally to wokeness, like mindless automatons.

What has become of our country? What sort of wimps are American parents raising? Worse, what sort of mindless, ignorant, narcissistic totalitarians are they raising?

Turley goes on to report another poll, this one even more concerning:

We have previously discussed the worrisome signs of a rising generation of censors in the country as leaders and writers embrace censorship and blacklisting. The latest chilling poll was released by 2021 College Free Speech Rankings after questioning a huge body of 37,000 students at 159 top-ranked U.S. colleges and universities. It found that sixty-six percent of college students think shouting down a speaker to stop them from speaking is a legitimate form of free speech.  Another 23 percent believe violence can be used to cancel a speech. That is roughly one out of four supporting violence. [emphasis added]

Those who think this way seem to have no problem putting thoughts into action. Just look at the number of conservative speakers who’ve been banned from college campuses on the excuse that administrations can’t guarantee their safety or the safety of audience members. Thus, the heckler’s veto wins, and the Constitution loses.

Some way, somehow, We the People have to come up with a solution to this lack understanding of the genius of our Constitution, or else our Republic is doomed.
