Socialist Protesters Disrupting a Lecture at UMass Amherst II
Loading...
Uploaded by coordinationproblem on Dec 2, 2011
This occured December 1st during a lecture hosted by the New England Objectivist Society and the UMass Republicans. Titled: "Global Capitalism: The Cure for World Oppression and Poverty" given by Professor Andrew Bernstein of SUNY Purchase about how a system of capitalism and property rights, underpinned by Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism, is the solution to the conditions of poverty seen throughout much of the world. The protest, which no group on UMass took responsibility for, shows just how weak the norms of free discourse and open thought are among those who desire to force their own vision of society upon other people. It is a disgrace for which the University's admistration needs to address and work towards ensuring that such a display of intolerance never occurs again.

I didn't know there was a time frame for right of speech? I never saw any tea party members be told so when Sean Penn spoke at a university. Must be a privilege of the 1%

One's freedom of speech does not extend to using it as a weapon to prevent another group's freedom of speech. When one group congregates with the expressed aim of preventing any peaceful group from going about their ends, then they can be removed so that the latter group can go about their business. Furthermore, the NEOS and the Republican Club both rented the use of the auditorium from the university in order to hear this lecture, preventing them from doing so is unlawful.
