Freshman State Representative Martin Daniel from Knoxville was a point man on raising a ruckus about the University of Tennessee Office of Diversity and Inclusion. That was a populace position and thousands agreed with him. However, his brain apparently fell out of his head on his free speech bill. according to a Tennessean article and his exchange defending his free speech bill, he said….nevermind I will let you read what the Tennessean reported his exchange to have been….in case he gets sue happy and wants to litigate about this website putting words in his mouth.
While presenting a billed dubbed the “Tennessee Student Free Speech Protection Act,” Rep. Martin Daniel, R-Knoxville, fielded a question from Rep. John DeBerry Jr., D-Memphis, about whether he believed ISIS should be able to stand in the middle of university campuses and “recruit for ISIS.”
“Yes,” Daniel replied. “So long as it doesn’t disrupt the proceedings on that campus. Yes sir. They can recruit people for any other organization or any other cause. I think it’s just part of being exposed to differing viewpoints.”
The remarks came after a debate about the bill, which Daniel said “would direct schools to observe freedom of speech on campus.”
