Hume: ‘Free Speech Is the Old Gray Mare of Campus Life, It Ain’t What It Used To Be’

RUSH EXCERPT:
HUME: "It does seem that way to meet, too, Tucker. Free speech is the old gray mare of campus life, now. It ain’t what it used to be. In places such as the University of Southern California, the University of California Berkeley, the birthplace of that free speech movement in the ‘70s, we now have efforts to suppress speech, we have protesters who heckle either with the threat of heckling, or writing, leads to cancellations of scheduled speeches by the likes of Ann Coulter. You don’t have to agree with Ann Coulter to believe in in this country, you she ought to be able to speak wherever she likes and she ought to be able to get her words out without being heckled into silence. This, and this day and age, is watch principally the left has come to you. It has triumphed in a number of areas, civil rights being an example, tucker. But now, that the great victories in these movements, civil rights, equal rights, have been basically won, they are looking for new fields to conquer, new grievances to work on. Now, we have them wanting to suppress speech and the name of diversity, and the name of tolerance and so on. It is remarkable."
