Small victory. KSt student govt resolution won't mention BYU by name.

Changing the world, one silly resolution at a time

Reminds me of the Studio C Facebook "like" segment. Changing the world...

Every new generation can't miss out on the latest, greatest social revolution

So sad to see psychotic liberals vomiting all over college football.

This only happens at institutions that don't care about football or have no

Yeah-- they may get their wish. Baylor and a few bigger programs than K-st

Sad so many young people are missing their education of the first amendment.

This isn't a first amendment issue.

Which amendment prohibits the govt from prohibiting free exercise of religion?

Big 12 is not. KSU, as a state sponsored institution, is an extension of govt.

ByuMba90

Yes, and if KSU prohibited LDS students from attending, that would be actionable

In the same way that the NCAA is. Or that a bakery is.

No one should claim that the NCAA or a bakery is violating their 1st am. rights

displacedute

9/29/16 10:18am

Agree with you.

BluebloodOR

9/29/16 11:47am

There might be a government action here. Even if not, 1st Amend. is a principle.

CosmoK

Yes, this is what I'm referencing. The idea that tolerance and free exercise should be a prevailing principle

soupie

Then these KSU students are exercising their first amendment rights.

displacedute

It's not the students voicing their opinion that would bother me. It's if the B12 allows those opinions

soupie

9/29/16 10:52am

Sure, and that's up to the Big 12, to decide which voices matter.

Half right. They are doing more than "speaking up." They are attempting to

You're not completely wrong. And yet the impact makes it a completely

This is the crux of the 'fairness for all' argument

During this whole debate I've thought it would be both funny and enlightening

9/29/16 12:47pm

(Remember, I'm being a bit liberal with what I mean by "completely exclude"

9/29/16 11:56am

It's only anti- constitution if it disagrees with me. Otherwise it's fine.

That's always a good position. I feel exactly the same way.
