Free speech is for us all, not a select few. Shutting down opposing positions to protect your "safe spaces" is nothing more than book burning. Academia should feel ashamed.

While I agree, free speech only protects one from government. Business, private schools, colleges etc. (as long as they are not part of a government entity) are free to do as they please.

GySgt Bill Smith - A privately owned bakery is not the same thing as a public university.
That whole bakery story really does a great job of illustrating the difference between the left and the right. Faced with an analogous situation, a conservative would just go find another bakery. A liberal is so offended by the opposing viewpoint that it can't be left alone until the issue is forced down the throat of the offending party.
