Should Speech Codes Be Banned

“College campuses have become fascist colonies of anti-American hate speech, hypersensitivity, speech codes, banded words and prohibited scientific inquiry.” (Ann Coulter). Safe-space is a term used to show that an educator, instructive establishment or under study does not endure free speech as a result of students being over-sensitive or feel offended. Shockingly as a consequence of safe-spaces, free speech has become endangered and intolerable. A speech code is a principle and regulation that bans speech afar from the strict laws of speech, their function is to stop badgering, criticism, defamation, and hate speech. These types of codes are most commonly used in Universities and private companies. Unfortunately, these speech codes have thwarted the urge to seek truth as well as influenced academic freedom, made students’ self-censor themselves, made the youth more fragile and oversensitive.

Such a central right, it is contended, should not to be restricted but to prevent genuine damage to others. Slander or yelling "Fire!" in a movie theater, for instance, can bring about genuine mischief and, hence, is really banned. Conversely, what grounds forbid as "hatred speech" is principally feeling that, while regularly hostile and disagreeable, does not bring about genuine damage. The basic right of free speech should not to be confined only to counteract hate speech. As Jesse Singal mentioned “This isn’t the behavior of people who are capable of weighing opposing ideas, or of changing their minds when they are confronted with evidence that suggests that they are wrong,” (Singal), this gave us an idea of how college students became less open to new ideas as they were restricted by speech
