CINCINNATI (AP) -- Kent State University, facing the threat of a lawsuit, reiterated on Friday that it cannot accommodate a request to allow white nationalist Richard Spencer to speak in early May as part of his campus tour.
The university, which is based in Kent but has regional campuses elsewhere in the state, said it had responded to attorney Kyle Bristow reaffirming its earlier response that no suitable space is available for Spencer to speak between April 30 and May 12.
Bristow had told Kent State it had until the end of business Friday to agree to rent space at an "acceptable date and time" or face a lawsuit. Several other schools, including Ohio State University and the University of Cincinnati, are in litigation over Spencer.
Tour organizer Cameron Padgett wanted Spencer to speak at Kent State on the May 4 anniversary of Ohio National Guard shootings that killed four students during anti-war protests in 1970. The university said early May is too busy with activities around the end of the academic year.
Bristow said last year that Spencer planned to speak March 14 on the University of Cincinnati campus, but the university said there was no contract in place, and the two sides are now in a legal standoff over the university's demand for a security fee of nearly $11,000.

That is called "tenure", and Spencer doesn't have it.

Even non-tenured can speak. Just somewhere else.

Yeah, down at the local Pint & Jigger, with all the Jocks and Fratboys. Why doesn't Richard (Dick) Spenser just speak there?

After all, his model may well be The Beer-hall Putsch [wikipedia.org] Frumping drunk Nazis!
Of course, no real American would ever attempt such a treasonous act against the constitution, unless they somehow thought that white people were someone better or different than other people. Perhaps superior, and destined to Rule? And maybe, in the long run, authorized to liquidate all the "lesser" species of humans, like people who park in handicap stalls without a permit, or people who think they are superior, when in fact they do not know the difference between "rein" and "reign" (looking at you, VLM, you fucking Nazi Looser!). This is why we cannot have White supremacy, and it is also why all I want for Christmas is a White Genocide.
