Cancel culture tried to force LSU into not accepting a student in the fall that had a video saying “I hate N’s”

LSU responds:

To be clear, we at LSU condemn hate and bigotry in any form, including racially incendiary remarks. As a state university, however, we are subject to constitutional limitation on our ability to take action in response to free speech.

fricking terrible PR move for LSU.

I don’t know the actual law either. Does the 1st amendment cover hate speech? Is this considered hate speech since it doesn’t seem to be a call to violence? I have no idea.

What I do know is a statement somewhere along the lines of “ We, as a university, are currently investigating this situation closely. We stand tall with our members of the black community at this time. Geaux Tigers” would’ve been a whole lot less inflammatory than the shite they put out
