Chilling Effect


Has it come to this? You can't even debate Concealed Carry without being kicked out of school.

Hamline University has suspended a student after he sent an e-mail suggesting that the Virginia Tech massacre might have been stopped if students had been allowed to carry concealed weapons on campus. Student Troy Scheffler is now required to undergo a mandatory "mental health evaluation" before being allowed to return to school.
And any unfavorable results of said "mental health evaluation" could be used to keep you from owning a gun, forever.

So much for free speech in academia.

Absolutely clear first amendment violation (unless this school is not only private but receives no government money at all). Where's the ACLU?
