What the HELL, that covers any "Disagrement"
Are they promoting making Human Robots unable to disagree?

Sure sounds like it.

#3 A court found that Virginia Tech killer Seung-Hui Cho was "mentally ill" and potentially dangerous. Then it let him go.

Let us hope they don't make the same mistake here.

#4 After the 'crusading' media in the 60s took on the warehousing and inadequate treatment of the mentally ill as in such productions as the Titicut Follies, the judiciary decided it was going to solve the problem by the usual dictates and decrees. One of which imposed an undo burden upon authorities to go well beyond reasonable doubt that an individual posed a immediate and undeniable threat to society. Since the ability to foretell the future still lacks judicial specifications, that means we the public pay in blood regularly because the butchers are left among us just waiting to kill. So in the aftermath of another blood bath, authorities then swing in the other direction seeking any and all means to cover their ass by hammering truly stupid people out of pure fear. The zero tolerance attitude brought to you by feeble administrators and lawyers who'll split a hair by atomic particles.

#5 Mark me as one of the crusaders who thinks we should not imprison people for their thoughts, only their actions. I'd hate to see who was in prison if President Hitlery Clinton could jail people for their thoughts.

#6 His father, Michael Karson, told the Camera newspaper that the comments may have been misinterpreted and questioned whether his son's free speech rights had been violated.

Jeez, wonder where sonnyboy gets his wacky ideas?

#7 tu, you being sarcastic?

Given that this occurred during a class sob-fest, I mean discussion, I think it's entirely possible that what this person said was taken out of context / exaggerated. And, saying that someone's speech, on topic, in a classroom is interfering with with people is more than a tad bizarre.

For all I know this kid is just a conservative that is hated by the liberal establishment at that school.

I doubt that any of us have any where near enough information to make any kind of guess.
