	2	+I value morality –
	3	+
	4	+In the context of governments like the United States, morality must be based on citizens having the ability to consent to political authority. Otherwise that authority is coercive and illegitimate. Benhabib 94

	12	+And- we should guarantee a marketplace of ideas, which supersedes other utilitarian grounds to restrict rights. The right to speak out is valuable in itself. Dwyer 01
	13	+Susan Dwyer, philosophy at University of Maryland, 2001 (http://www.umbc.edu/philosophy/dwyer/papers/freespeech.html)
	14	+Direct Nonconsequentialism …(protect) it everywhere.
	15	+Therefore, my value criterion is respecting democratic deliberation. This means that the judge should vote for which side best promotes discussion and dialogue.
	16	+Advantage 1 – Free press
	17	+My first contention is about freedom of the press – right now restrictions on free speech are loading up on college campuses. This is a damaging precedent for student newspapers. Schuman 12/8
	18	+(Rebecca, http://www.slate.com/articles/life/education/2016/12/student_journalists_are_under_threat.html)
	19	+Well, here’s …censorship is acceptable.
	20	+
	21	+This justifies widespread censorship in a diverse array of cases It’s not just about the press – it’s about the way the administration justifies a choke hold on student activities. Lukianoff 05

	25	+Moreover, censorship is the most important impact for student freedom. It makes students bad reporters and activists later on in their life. Free press is the most important version of free speech. Sanders 06

	28	+More significantly for …an earlier time.

	30	+Advantage 2 – Civic Engagement
	31	+My second contention is that instances of censorship will get misapplied by the state, which will in turn disempower potential activists and hurt civic engagement. Civic Engagement is crucial to solving real world problems that college students will encounter.
	32	+Government control of speech will favor the powerful and silence the powerless. Majeed, BA, 09

	34	+B. Impact on Campus ideas on campus.
	35	+
	36	+College in particular is a time where students need to learn how to be activists before anything else. This is prevented if their words are controlled by the state. Majeed, BA, 09

	39	+2. Suppression of Disfavored …the college environment
	40	+
	41	+State censorship of college journalism kills civic engagement and discourages speaking about important topics.

	48	+Finally, Civic Engagement is the vital link to solving many real world problems. Small 06
