And in other censorship news today, the US Supreme Court ruled unanimously that the government can't prohibit offensive speech about race.

 "It offends a bedrock First Amendment principle: Speech may not be banned on the ground that it expresses ideas that offend," 
"Speech that demeans on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, age, disability, or any other similar ground is hateful; but the proudest boast of our free speech jurisprudence is that we protect the freedom to express the thought we hate" Alioto


"A law that can be directed against speech found offensive to some portion of the public can be turned against minority and dissenting views to the detriment of all," Kennedy said in an opinion joined by Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Sonya Sotomayor and Elena Kagan."

So can the Oregon State School gurus deny a local sports team the use of a Native American term because it is or may be  'offensive' to some?  

I think not.

So do the owners of the NFL "Redskins".
