	2	+Part one is the narrative
	3	+First, lets set the stage. Let me introduce you to Milo Yiannopoulos
	4	+Duffy, University ignored warnings about far-right speaker, leaving him free to bully trans student on stage Nick Duffy 15th December 2016, 1:53 PM, http://www.pinknews.co.uk/2016/12/15/university-ignored-warnings-about-far-right-speaker-leaving-him-free-to-bully-trans-student-on-stage/
	5	+A university ignored multiple warnings about a speaker’s extreme views and history of abusive behaviour – leaving him free to single out a trans student and bully them on-stage. Far-right internet troll Milo Yiannopoulos has seen his media profile rise thanks to attention-grabbing bigoted comments and support of Donald Trump, whom he refers to as ‘daddy’. Yiannopoulos, who was banned from Twitter earlier this year after allegedly encouraging a wave of racist abuse directed at Ghostbusters star Leslie Jones, is capitalising on his cult-like following with a ‘Dangerous Faggot Tour’ at universities and colleges across the US. When Yiannopoulos was confirmed to be speaking at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, students attempted to make officials aware of his views and abusive history. But despite repeated protests, university administrators decided that Yiannopoulos – who says he would ‘cure’ himself of being gay if he could and describes trans people as “mentally ill… gay men dressing up for attention” – should still be allowed to speak at the event on December 14. Yiannopoulos proceeded to use the event to single out and humiliate a transgender student who attends the university, exactly as protesters had warned he would. In his speech – which was streamed on the internet by far-right news outlet Breitbart – Yiannopoulos singled out Milwaukee engineering student Adelaide Kramer, showing pictures of her on a PowerPoint presentation and mocking her as a “man in a dress” who “I’d almost still bang”. He said: “I’ll tell you one UW-Milwaukee student that does not need to man up, and that is used herusing former name Justine Kramer.” “Do you know about Justine Kramer? Have any of you come into contact with this person? This quote unquote nonbinary trans woman forced his way into the women’s locker rooms this year. “He got into the women’s room the way liberals always operate, using the government and the courts to weasel their way where they don’t belong “Equal rights law Title IX is being used to put men in to women’s bathrooms. I have known some passing trannies in my life… which is to say transgender people who pass as the gender they would like to be considered.” “The way that you know he’s failing is I’d almost still bang him. It’s just…it’s just a man in a dress, isn’t it? I should reapply my lipstick.” The session continued for nearly two hours after the incident.

	7	+Sounds pretty bad huh? It gets worse.
	8	+Speaking to student media outlet Media Milwaukee, Adelaide Kramer – whose case had received some limited media attention previously – said: “I knew Milo was going to regurgitate a profound amount of racist and transphobic hate. “What I did not anticipate was being specifically targeted and called out in the way he did. I hadn’t said anything or made even the slightest disruption: He had his harassment of me planned out well in advance. “I’m sitting there and I hear him say ‘Justine Kramer’ and I just froze up. I have never, ever, ever been more terrified in my life of being outed. Ever. “This also isn’t just a case of a speaker going off an a tangent like that, like some random occurrence. It was not a case where you had no way of knowing he would do this. Quite the contrary: Milo has a supremely extensive, highly-documented track record of doing precisely this. “As I’ve already said, ‘YOU KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN. WE TOLD YOU IT WOULD. AND WE TOLD YOU AGAIN. AND AGAIN’.” Adelaide Kramer told the outlet she is quitting the university.
	9	+And the reaction? The
	10	+University chancellor Mark Mone – who ignored repeated warnings and protests in order to let Yiannopoulos speak – sent an all-student email condemning the comments. After defending the principle of “free speech”, he wrote: “I do not agree with Yiannopoulos’ views, and I strongly condemn the belittling of others and their appearance, and the encouragement of hate and harassment. “I also will not stand silently by when a member of our campus community is personally and wrongly attacked. I am disappointed that this speaker chose to attack a transgender student. “Our campus has a wonderful diversity that fosters a creative and exciting learning environment. It is critical that we protect, support and celebrate the exchange of ideas and cultural traditions that take place here. “The inclusivity and safety of our campus are top priorities. Every member of our community should feel safe and valued, regardless of beliefs, race, sexual orientation, immigration or other status.”
	11	+THROUGH THIS WE SEE THE INFULTRATION OF FACISM INTO OUR SCHOOLS FROM THE OUTSIDE. TRANS AND OTHER MARGINALIZED STDUENTS BECOME PAWNS IN THE GAME OF POLITICS, THEIR SUFFERING DISCARDED IN THE NAME OF FREE SPEECH, IN ORDER TO GENERATE HEADLINES AND POLITICAL CAPITAL FOR LITERAL NATZI. THIS IS COMPLETE DEHUMANIZATION- STUDENTS BECOME SACRIFICE.

	15	+ROLAND http://www.firstamendmentcenter.org/campus-speakers, FREE SPEECH ON PUBLIC COLLEGE CAMPUSES Campus speakers DAVE ROLAND CONTRIBUTING WRITER Friday, September 13, 2002
	16	+Public colleges and universities frequently make their facilities available to speakers unaffiliated with the campus, seeking to provide educational experiences outside the classroom. Sometimes these speakers are chosen by the administration, sometimes by students. Regardless of who selects a speaker, once a university has created a forum on its campus, the same First Amendment protections will apply. A school has no obligation to grant every student-group request for guest speakers. Administrations may create regulations for handling requests, and at least one court has held that universities may be justified in denying applications if they have reason to believe that the speaker will advocate violent rebellion against the government, or immediate, destructive, and disruptive action against the host institution. Generally, however, courts have held that when an audience brings someone to campus to speak, the school bears a constitutional responsibility not to interfere. The situation is different if the speaker is uninvited. Campuses usually require uninvited speakers to apply for a permit and can limit where and when these speakers speak. A public college or university is constitutionally permitted to place certain time, place, manner, and (in very limited circumstances) even content-based restrictions on speech, as long as the restrictions are reasonable, apply to everyone, are in line with the school’s educational mission, and do not discriminate according to viewpoint. Such restrictions may run into constitutional trouble if the school administration’s effort is seen as an attempt to block particular individuals, topics, or points of view. In a string of cases decided during the Vietnam War, federal courts clearly established that regardless of the controversy that might be caused by a speaker’s presence or the content of the message, inflammatory guests could not be denied the opportunity to be heard in an appropriate forum on public college campuses. To prevent their ideas, however distasteful to some, from being presented on campus would be an exercise of prior restraint, which the Supreme Court has said is generally (though not always) unconstitutional. Recently the question of the appropriate forum has become the key factor in determining whether an uninvited speaker may speak on campus.
	17	+Thus, the alternative- public colleges and universities should adopt a ‘no platforming’ policy, as modeled by the NUS in the UK. This allows student unions to prevent speakers from speaking on school grounds.
	18	+Bell, BBC News, Education and Family NUS 'right to have no platform policy' By Sar ah Bell Victoria Derbyshire programme, http://www.bbc.com/news/education-36101423
	19	+Nearly two-thirds (63) of university students believe the National Union of Students is right to have a "no platforming" policy, a survey suggests. The policy means people or groups on a banned list for holding racist or fascist views are not given a platform to speak on student union premises. And 54 of 1,001 students asked thought the policy should be enforced against people who could be found intimidating. The NUS said the policy allowed free speech without intimidation. ComRes interviewed 1,001 UK university students online for the survey, commissioned by the Victoria Derbyshire programme, with data weighted by course year, university type and gender. The NUS official no platform list contains six groups including the BNP and Al-Muhajiroun, but individual unions and student groups can decide their own. Find out more: The Victoria Derbyshire programme broadcast a special programme on the issue of no platform on Monday. If you missed it you can catch up here. The NUS said it was proud of the policy and that the poll results showed students recognised it was important to stand up to racism and fascism. "In the past, students have been physically harmed and tragically even killed as a result of such organisations coming on to campuses and inciting hatred. That is why no platform was introduced in the first place, to keep students safe in a very real sense," a spokeswoman said. "Our policy does not limit free speech, but acts to defend it by calling out violence, hate speech, bullying and harassment, which allows debate to take place without intimidation. Students' unions are champions of debate on campus, in fact a recent survey showed zero out of 50 students' unions had banned a speaker in the past year." In recent years, individuals believed to be sexist, transphobic or rape apologists have also been banned from speaking at universities. 'Outrageous' It is argued these speakers would threaten a "safe space", which is described as an accessible environment in which every student feels comfortable, safe and can get involved free from intimidation or judgment. At Canterbury Christ Church University, an NUS rep refused to share a platform with gay rights activist Peter Tatchell, whom she regarded as having been racist and "transphobic".
