Christian group sues over school's speech policy

We read:
"Lawyers for the Alliance Defend Fund, a Christian civil rights group, claim a university police officer threatened to arrest Lafayette resident Jeremy Sonnier and three friends if they didn't stop voicing their religious views on school property.

But the state-funded school says it has a right to set limits on the time, place and manner of free speech on its Hammond campus.

Today, Sonnier's lawyers are scheduled to ask U.S. District Judge Ivan Lemelle to temporarily block the university from enforcing its speech policies.

They do have the right to set limits. Not in class and not after 10:00 P.M. Beyond that, no.

It is a public college, so it has to obey the constitution like everybody else, (hear that obama?) We have freedom of speech in this country and freedom of religion. If these fascist do not like it, let them resign. If the students were speaking about islam, there would have not been any problems. Seems academia has this hatred of Christianity.

The President (any President, not just Obama) is required to obey the Constitution. Are you suggesting otherwise?
