Pro-Trump Chalk Messages Cause Conflicts on College Campuses

The New York Times reports:

Students at several college campuses are clashing with their administrations and debating the limits of free speech after finding chalk messages voicing support for Donald J. Trump scrawled on campus property.

Last week, at Emory University in Atlanta, officials scrambled to respond to a student demonstration after roughly 100 messages were found on campus. The students felt that there was an anti-diversity subtext to the so-called chalking written on campus about Mr. Trump, the Republican front-runner whose divisive comments about Muslims, women, Hispanics and disabled people have offended his critics but have tended to embolden his supporters.

Casidy Campbell, a 21-year-old senior at Emory, said in an interview that the pro-Trump messages contained phrases like “Build a Wall” and “Accept the Inevitable,” and said that the messages were written near multicultural spaces, like the black student union.

“We’re not here to infringe on people’s First Amendment rights,” Ms. Campbell said. “Think about how your language can be oppressive toward other people.”

Delicate snowflakes shocked that not everyone is a socialist on campus.
