WaPo editorial board: Efforts to silence and cancel Mike Pence campus visits are 'unwarranted'

The Washington Post editorial board argued Wednesday that efforts to silence Mike Pence were "unwarranted" and that he "deserves to be heard."

"It’s a constitutionally protected act to protest a politician whose views or record offend. It’s another thing to deny him a forum. Unfortunately, that is what some students are advocating ahead of a scheduled appearance by Mr. Pence on April 12 at the University of Virginia — a stance that is not only wrongheaded but also, in the case of a public university, probably illegal," the Washington Post's op-ed said.
