Give me an example that you think would have prevented Spencer from speaking.

You say you are not arguing that it is, but that’s what it looks like when you give that as an example. My point is that example is not relevant to this situation in any way.
all sorts of restrictions can be put into place legally before content-neutrality is reached
academic events are hosted at universities all the time where only the best speakers are chosen.
Because discrimination is against the law. Saying you don’t agree with their opinion is NOT a legal reason to deny them use of a space open to rent.
Again, this is not about not getting an invite, this is about a space being open to the public and that can’t be denied to someone because of their speech.
Is everyone equally entitled to all parts of that because of the first amendment?
The government owns lots of properties and places where people’s actions and speeches can be restricted in various ways.
No, they would have to do it first come first served. Ten of those people will be first in line.
Not being allowed to speak because of the content of what you want to say, is punishment for speech.
In the context of this situation, “open to the public” means that members of the public can rent space there to give a talk.
I didn’t say anything about invites, I said if they allow people to rent their space to give a talk, which they do, them they must allow anyone to rent, they cannot discriminate based on content.
Learn your history. Nazis didn’t prohibit Nazis from holding Nazi rallies and spreading Nazi speech. In fact, they were the ones who actually were Nazis holding Nazi rallies and spreading Nazi speech.-You
I’m sure it did, but why do you think it sounds good that you’re not answering the question that was asked?-You
You just don’t see things getting out of control. But lots of other people can see how it could happen. It really looks to me like you just don’t want to see it.
Learn to read. No one said Nazi’s didn’t let other Nazi’s speak, they are saying they didn’t let NON NAZI’S SPEAK. That’s part of how they came into power. By prohibiting speech. It’s a typical bad-guy move, which is why we don’t allow it here.
The same reason you think it makes you look good to refuse to post a quote.
Generally speaking bread puddings are great when you prep it the night before.
I do get pissed at that. Like I said, partial adulthood is bullshit. I don’t agree with the drinking age either.
Fun fact: People in their early 20's kill more people with guns that 18-21 year old do.
I’m not OK with restrictions on rights for adults. I’m fine with tings like background checks and registries.
That person is particularly terrible.
