These basic points apply to all Western countries or have in the past and form a cornerstone of Western societies.



1. Right of free speech

2. Right of free press

3. Right to worship

4. Right to Petition

5. Right to Assemble



The best any of the kids could do is name the first three. Most talked about harmful speech or marginalization.



This is why Earth can't have nice things.

Quotenearly half of college students believe that hate speech is not protected by the First Amendment. Of course, it is.



Fifty-one percent of students think that it's acceptable to shout down a speaker with whom they disagree.



About 20 percent of students hold that it's acceptable to use violence to prevent a speaker from speaking.



Over 50 percent say colleges should prohibit speech and viewpoints that might offend certain people.


These are the minds that will run the world in a few years.  We are in trouble.

That is surprising considering how how big a role the constitution plays in everyday American life.

I guess it's easy to remove fundamental liberties when people don't even know what they are.
