George Washington University Law School Professor Jonathan Turley argued this week that colleges and universities should remove Antifa-associated students and professors that commit acts of violence.
According to a report by the College Fix, George Washington University Law School Professor Jonathan Turley argued this week that colleges and universities should not tolerate violence by Antifa activists on campus.
Breitbart News reported in 2017 that a Bay Area professor assaulted at least seven people with a bike lock during an Antifa demonstration in Berkeley, California. The professor, Eric Clanton, was only sentenced to three years of probation.
In an interview with the College Fix this week, Turley pointed out that Antifa resorts to violence because it is opposed to engaging in the marketplace of ideas.
“Indeed, I believe that these colleges would be benefitted from a debate over Antifa’s values. Of course, Antifa is opposed to such intellectual exchanges. Yet, free speech protections are often extended to those who least deserve them,†Turley said.
