Tropical Soulvanglical makes a request to Columbia State University -not- to cave into the 250 professors, and -not- reinstate those two groups. Accordingly, TSV is making the case that contrary to what the 250 appear to claim, CSU's policy towards the two groups is -not- a form of censorship. It's not censorship to make sure students aren't harassed by people slamming on library doors behind which the students felt like they had to hide, like what happened at Cooper Union. TSV doesn't want the Ed Snowdens to think he's ever going to forget that. In any case, the two groups are free to demonstrate off-campus to their hearts' content, and TSV's pretty sure they've already done so, telling from the amount of fake blood splashed upon the New York Times building, and whatever level of harassment the Pro-Israel groups in Washington DC may have had to cope with this past week. TSV reminds people that Homeland Security raised the alert level for that event not because of the Pro-Israel groups, but because of the counter-protestors expected to show up as well. TSV hasn't heard what the turnout of the latter was, but he's sure it was all ugly all the same. CSU TSV finds an interesting school. Their hospital system has advertised on newsradio as providing a recovery service for those trying to get away from pot now that the legal status of pot has made recovery even more of a necessity than ever before. TSV wishes other hospitals would follow suit, and though he's pro-survivor, he wonders whether the latest harassment accusations against CSU would not have materialized if it weren't for their pot recovery services. Every campus has to decide on how to best assure the public safety of its students, teachers, staff and visitors, and TSV sees CSU as no exception. That said, TSV isn't ready yet to go pro-CSU until he's sure they stand by principle against the peer pressure presented by the 250 apparently reinforcing flaky intellectualist stereotypes explaining away the clear and present danger presented by certain groups by claiming censorship.
