We Still Have Free Speech, No?

UC goes back to the drawing board on controversial revamp of free-speech policy

So the University of California system instituted an intolerance policy which in effect limited free speech to only non-offensive language.  The problem with that policy, according to some, is that it did not go far enough.

The problem as I see it is that we have this thing called the 1st Amendment which provides for free speech.  In particular, it provides for free speech that others may not agree with.  The reason that is so is because speech that everyone agrees with requires no protection at all.

Too many colleges and universities are trying to protect overly sensitive students who seemingly are incapable of either countering the speech with debate, or ignoring it.  What will come of our country if our youth are treated like china dolls who cannot be permitted to hear rough or insensitive language?  This intolerance for free speech must not continue.
