CP Text: Public colleges and universities in the United States ought not restrict constitutionally protected speech other than fraternity advertising, organization, or membership.

Fraternities are sites of rape, serious injury, and death. Flanagan 14

“Until proven otherwise,”… a fraternity function.

Agents must act by universal rules since they must view themselves as the cause of their actions for the coherence of their own agency, so they must identify with their principles and reject non-universal rules, Korsgaard:
Korsgaard, Christine M. Self-constitution: Agency, identity, and integrity. Oxford University Press, USA, 2009.
The first step… of the action.

From universality it follows we may not coerce with our own unilateral force, we must concede authority to an omnilateral will, that is, the state, since when one will dominates another that’s a contradiction, Kant:
Immanuel Kant (leading Kantian scholar) The Metaphysical Elements of Justice, trans. John Ladd. 1797. Indianapolis: Hackett Publsihing, 1999.
When I declare… a civil society.

Unrestricted speech enables subversive speech against the state, which means restricted speech is key to maintaining the omnilateral will’s legitimacy. Varden:

I cut the first card from LHP’s wiki

Small-scale reform for police accountability like the AC cedes the existence of the police. Hotchkin ’15:
Hotchkin, Joshua. "Accountability Is Futile - Abolish the Police." Cop Block. N.p., 12 Nov. 2015. Web.
Accountability is futile… we are seeing.

The aff fundamentally misdiagnoses the problem – police say they’re good under the façade that they “serve and protect.”  That causes endless violence against minorities. Smith ’15:
Smith, Mychal. "Abolish the Police. Instead, Let's Have Full Social, Economic, and Political Equality." The Nation. N.p., 29 June 2015. Web. CS
We don’t consider… It’s too extreme.

Second, tradeoff: focus on identity politics legitimizes capital by removing superstructural contradictions while leaving the primary contradiction in place. Wexler
Steven Wexler prof. English at Cal State Northride. 2008. “(I’m) Material Labor in the Digital Age” http://cust.educ.ubc.ca/workplace/issue15/html/wexler.html
As I argued…source of value.

Neoliberal Capitalism enforces the alienation of queers through increasing violence and proliferation of homogenous ideology. Rosenberg and Villarejo ‘12

If queer studies… futurity pits itself.

By positing slavery as the starting point of American racism, the scholarship you cite glosses over colonization of land that required genocide of indigenous peoples, Lawrence and Dua ‘05:

International critical race… “race” and racism?

The alternative is to recognize the historical relationship between colonization and racism in order to foster productive dialogue, which requires reframing the discussion on indigenous terms, Lawrence and Dua 3:

1. Aboriginal sovereignty… colonization and resistance. 

Even if you mitigate the links, the perm always fails – pluralism just further brushes aside the indigenous cause, Lawrence and Dua 4:
