When Justice Sotomayor authors an opinion favoring the National Rifle Association, it gets attention. This happened in the case of the NRA v. Vullo, a unanimous opinion holding that a regulatory official engages in viewpoint discrimination against gun-rights advocates when it coerces their insurance companies to stop doing business with them. The case properly concluded that the First Amendment protects speakers against such coercion by government officials.

Antisemitic hate speech is back on college campuses across America in the wake of the horrific Israel-Hamas war. The hypocrisy of college administrators and faculty, who police the use of pronouns, while permitting Jewish students to live in fear, is an outrage. Yet defenders of free speech on college campuses should hesitate before they demand more censorship. Such censorial powers would undoubtedly be used to marginalize reasonable religious and conservative dissenters further.
