NOBODY EXPECTS THE KENTUCKY INQUISITION: But they probably should. Fox News reports on the University of Kentucky’s Bias Incident Response Team, whose rules FIRE declared to be the Speech Code of the Month for May. Mock the wrong person, even unintentionally, and a panel (including police) may be having a word with you. And before people complain about my comparison (yes, I know UK doesn’t kill anyone), give a listen to Episode 8 of the excellent podcast Clear and Present Danger: A History of Free Speech, where Danish free speech advocate Jacob Mchangama reminds us that the Inquisition was first and foremost dedicated to “correcting” “errors” of belief and speech. Punishment was for the stubborn and recalcitrant.
