Clearly those attending this school don't understand the sacrifice that people, especially the military, have made over the years to guarantee the right to free speech. If they did, they wouldn't be so quick to let it go.

Interesting that benighted so-called student leaders at Texas A&M are thumbing their noses at the US House of Represnetives are advocating relegating free speech to designated zones Lt Col Charlie Brown
This reminds of Brave New World, 1984, Clockwork Orange and so many other books which predicted an age where the lemmings with little minds would clamor for people to control speech.
I suppose they will next consider reeducation camps to sentence those who attempt to speak freely outside of predesignated zones.
It will be ironic when these lemmings are confronted by speech from sentient people and they will have to determine what is free and what is permissible speech and what the overlap "is" which reminds me of impeached former President William Jefferson Clinton as he rhetorically debated what is actually means :-)
"The Student Senate at Texas A&M University (TAMU) has passed a resolution supporting free speech zones that are designed to “allow protests” on campus.
“The Opposition of the PROSPER Act’s Proposal To Remove Free Speech Zones Resolution,” passed the TAMU Student Senate with no dissenting votes and no amendments. The bill was written to show opposition to the U.S. House of Representatives’ proposal to ban free speech zones in public institutions of higher education.
"The removal of free speech zones at Texas A&M will allow protests and/or freedom of expression to be publicized in all areas of campus." Tweet This
Free speech zones are often criticized as a misnomer by First Amendment advocates, who argue that confining expressive activity to specific areas of campus is an unconstitutional infringement of free speech rights.

The resolution argues that TAMU already has traditional public forums that can be used for protests or other forms of free speech, and claims that if the PROSPER act is passed through the Senate, it would allow protests on all outdoor areas of campus other than classrooms.
“The removal of free speech zones at Texas A&M will allow protests and/or freedom of expression to be publicized in all areas of campus,” the resolution states."
