Nah, it depends. For example, if he put the effigy up in a public area with restricted signage or the what not it could be removed and he could be disciplined for the infraction. Such regulations of public space have been upheld as long as they do not differentiate based on content. [1]
Now, if he was rejected from putting it up at the university art show or if other forms of art, signage, etc. were allowed in that area..it'd be a clear violation.

- scintill76 11y agoWell, maybe they did differentiate based on content, if an unapproved[0] anti-police-violence rally (specifically on African-American victims) was held in the same spot the night before, part of what "made" the "art" so "triggering" (mixed quasi-quotes on concepts from both sides.) I don't know how to easily/reliably determine if it was unapproved though. P.S. The Facebook event page for the rally might be interesting: https://www.facebook.com/events/338643562987236/ https://www.facebook.com/events/338643562987236/ Also: https://storify.com/DearSplenda/serhat-tanyolacar-terrorizes-blackhawkeyes-at-uiow https://storify.com/DearSplenda/serhat-tanyolacar-terrorizes...
