40 percent of young people have fascist views about free speech

Daily Caller:
A new Pew Research Center poll shows that 40 percent of American Millennials (ages 18-34) are likely to support government prevention of public statements offensive to minorities.

It should be noted that vastly different numbers resulted for older generations in the Pew poll on the issue of offensive speech and the government’s role.

Around 27 percent of Generation X’ers (ages 35-50) support such an idea, while 24 percent of Baby Boomers (ages 51-69) agree that censoring offensive speech about minorities should be a government issue. Only 12 percent of the Silent Generation (ages 70-87) thinks that government should prevent offensive speech toward minorities.

The poll comes at a time when college activists, such as the group “Black Lives Matter,” are making demands in the name of racial and ethnic equality at over 20 universities across the nation.

These are the new liberal values they are learning in college?   These are the are wimps that want a "safe space"  and want to deny jobs to anyone who disagrees with their point of view.  I have no respect for their point of view but I am willing to let them speak it as long as they do not try to enforce it.  They are a disgrace to a free society.
