- the_snooze 3y ago>Duncan, who has defended Louisiana’s gay-marriage ban and a North Carolina law restricting transgender people from using their preferred bathrooms, was repeatedly heckled by students and couldn’t speak more than a few words without interruption. Would you consider this fair protest? It's a legally tricky issue [1], but I'm of the view that normalizing this leads to a dangerous social environment (e.g., shouting down LGBT speakers at their events).
