Re: Cotton ball conservatives cling to censorship myth, Jan. 17.
UNBC graduate Sydney Redpath gives us a good example of the creeping authoritarianism that has entered our politics. Fortunately, her arguments are not coherent.
First, she denies that the censorship of conservatives is happening. Then she claims it is justified when it happens because of "the equal concept of restricted speech." Then she demands that someone she opposes should be compelled to speak about an issue.
Here are two more lessons for this former student. Restricted speech is not equal to free speech and compelled speech is the very opposite.
