PROTEST: BYU Shuts Down "Free Speech Zone"

Shit like this drove me crazy when I went to BYU. The honor code..blah..blah..blah.. great academic experience but I hated the student body.

THIS IS A PRIVATE UNIVERSITY.

Its a Private University. They can make whatever rules they want. Not only that but these students sign a contract aggreeing to BYU's terms. I don't see anything wrong here.

LOL! I just hope the power-hungry "leaders" of the school didn't panic at their lack of total control over the minds of these students and deny diplomas to the people who had their own graduation.

I believe the reasoning for them asking to leave and only allowing them to protest for a restricted time was that BYU, as well as the LDS faith leans towards appearing politically neutral, and students carrying around signs protesting political leaders from either side of the isle are usually asked to stop. I personally saw no one there get yelled at by anyone in suits, they were politely asked to leave, its a private University, they can do and regulate as they please.

The church doesn't officially back any party or candidate, but the administration has NO RIGHT to impose that position on students. Individuals are not required to be politically neutral or behave that way.

I love Brigham Young University. This video makes the BYU liberals more significant than they actually are. They make up no more than 1-2% of the student body.

haha BYU is gay stupid cougars

the reason they told them to stop is due to the fact NO ONE cares!!!

Your cause is useless. You are making meaningless noise when people are trying to study, go home.

Wow, things are getting really bad. Good work for filming and posting this - as many people as possible need to be aware of every instance of this so they know how widespread and severe it is.

Man, all this escalating oppression is f***ed up.
