re: Someone Tell Governor Abbott That “Hate” Speech Is Free Speech…

Abbott messed up in conflating two issues. He can personally condemn what he deems hate speech but can't and shouldn't have anyone arrested for it.
However, campus protestors that get out of hand for any reason absolutely should be arrested, and I'm glad to see it happen. If he had the foresight to separate these two thoughts he'd be in a much better place right now.

Spot on.
Criminalizing human emotion is an impossible goal, not to mention ridiculous.

Foresight? All he needed was patience! Based on what’s happening at other campuses the odds are they would have crossed the line at some point. And if they didn’t he still could have come out and denounced their anti-semitism.

Much like Landry with the LSUWBB/National Anthem situation, he hastily issued a statement because he was primarily concerned with scoring political points.

Maybe someone should pass a law.

Pretty much all that needs to be said and you lose the message pretty quickly when you start complaining about simply speech.
