To the editor,
The letter titled “Abort anti-abortionists” (Feb. 19, Letterhead), was most distasteful and written in very hateful language. The writer wants to abolish the right to free speech at SMU and ignore the rights of the unborn child. In a free country, university should be a place for free speech, free thought, debate and discussion. No wonder she is uncomfortable at SMU; she may be more comfortable at a university in a communist country.

—J. Patil, Eastern Passage

Hate speech is not “somebody disagrees with me, therefore my discomfort with ideological conflict justifies aggressively depriving that person of her or his Charter rights.”
