According to the Catholic Register (Canada), have been charged with non-academic misconduct for their graphic displays of the results of abortion:
The charges resulted from a Genocide Awareness Project display the group hosted April 8 and 9. Its display, which compares abortion to atrocities such as the Rwandan genocide and the Holocaust, had been hosted without incident eight times since 2006. On April 8, campus security allegedly asked the students to turn their signs inward or leave the campus grounds. They refused.
In 2009, the university charged six students with trespassing for hosting the same display but charges were stayed.“We always do it once a semester, (and hosted it again) thinking there wouldn’t be any problem because the charges of trespassing have been stayed in court so we figured we were good to go,” said Campus Pro-Life president Leah Hallman.
Hallman, a student with just a year of studies left before graduating, said she hopes the university drops the charges, as they can result in expulsion. The university had made threats of charging the pro-life students with expulsion in the past.
“None of us want to be expelled. We’re all in university for a reason, we want to get an education. But we’re still willing to make the sacrifice necessary for the unborn,” Hallman told The Catholic Register. “We think it’s more important.”
The Genocide Awareness Project has been displayed on a number of campuses around the US, including Cal Berkeley. At Cal, the display made a point of including photos reminiscent of Berkeley’s tradition of free speech, even on unpopular subjects.
We must, above all, allow unfettered “choice” and be “tolerant” of “transgressive” viewpoints. Thus does the cultural hegemony of the Life Style Left continue to impose itself.
