This is an attempt to criminalize free speech and suppress dissent. If we don’t take a strong stand against this, it’s the end of our democracy, and not just higher education. Universities are the trial balloon, but it doesn’t end here. Next, it will be employers, cities and towns, and individuals.

What does “illegal” even mean in this case?
Where’s the armed militia to defend democracy?
Ha, ha, the are mostly Trump supporters.
(Of course, vandalism and trespassing are. And universities can enforce their own rules about speech codes. But that not new.)
But we've all seen him ignore what's legal and what's not. Repeatedly.
Fer shur.
