Looks like @President_Boren is going with a very overbroad definition of threats and a questionable hostile environment analysis.

@Popehat @President_Boren You don't consider overt racism to be a hostile act? They were singing about lynching black people.

.@sackobooks Of course it's a hostile act. Question is whether it satisfies "severe and pervasive" test justifying state sanction.

@Popehat @sackobooks pervasive should be easy enough to satisfy, no? They all knew the chant. Would require practice/repetition.

@Melhyphen @sackobooks That's not what pervasive means, in context. If they repeatedly chanted it AT students, that would meet test.

Students expelled sang a stupid song @President_Boren but expulsion from public institution for something they said will have repercussions.

@SamThiessen Activist Michael Myers making your point on Hannity. @davidwebbshow agrees w/Meyers but of course, Hannity talks over Myers.

.@President_Boren's decision means a University can declare any speech to be hate & ban it. @SnakebiteJones @davidwebbshow @seanhannity

@President_Boren @marstu67 Wow, that was swift and surgical. Thank you for taking this seriously.

@President_Boren @corbydavidson this will be some expensive PR. You will get sued. You will lose. That was constitutionally protected speech

@mrwiizrd Who cares? The losers deserve to be booted out of school regardless of the cost.

@StewCrew85 1st amend rights are more important than your feelz. they won't be booted, they'll be reinstated at enormous $$ to taxpayers

@stewthemilkfedj @mrwiizrd @StewCrew85 I welcome the lawsuit. Let's see the names and faces of these people and watch them be reinstated.

@stewthemilkfedj @mrwiizrd @StewCrew85 This lawsuit may cost OU but not acting would cost it too in damaged reputation etc.
