The group had signs which read, "Sin Awareness Day" and "Evolution is a Lie". As the group went through all the things which would lead to eternal punishment in Hell, more and more students arrived eventually starting a, "Get off our campus" chant. Campus police and the Vice President of Student Affairs Scott Kane eventually arrived on the scene to ensure the incident did not turn violent.
Vice President Kane reminded the students that this group was exercising their First Amendment rights and would be allowed to do so, so long as they did not promote or take part in any form of harassment or violence.
These situations are often tests on how strongly we actually value our constitutional rights. While the message of this group is extremely ignorant and offensive to me, I also greatly value the rights given to us by the Constitution and believe this group has the right to express themselves. Freedom of Speech does not only apply to those with whom you agree... it applies to everyone.
