Anyone who is a parent knows that children learn a whole lot more from what they see than what you tell them.\u00a0 That continues regardless of how old they are.\u00a0 Some parents might be upset about the lesson their college-age children recently learned at Notre Dame University<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Daily Caller<\/a> reported today that a pro-traditional marriage<\/a> group that had set up an information table on the Notre Dame campus<\/a> was shut down by police called by the school.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The cops rushed to the scene after they got the call from school officials at the Roman Catholic school<\/a> and quickly slapped a \u201ccease and desist\u201d order on the conservative group, Tradition Family Property<\/a> Student Action (TFP), reports Campus Reform<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

TFP Student Action members say they were told by the University of Notre Dame Security Police Department<\/a> \u2014 \u201cfully authorized<\/a> as a police agency by the State of Indiana<\/a>\u201d \u2014 that there is a distinction between having permission to set up a table and having permission\u00a0to sit at the table.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Actually sitting at a table<\/em>\u00a0seems to require a totally different and higher level of bureaucratic authorization.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If Americans<\/a> who support the values that have served as the foundation of our country do not stand up for those values and teach those values, those values will disappear. Obviously Notre Dame is not interested in teaching those values.<\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

TFP Student Action members were handing out a flier entitled \u201c10 Reasons Why Same-Sex \u2018Marriage\u2019 is Harmful and Must Be Opposed.\u201d Ritchie said the response from students and faculty members ranged from respectful to supportive.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Then, a group of leftist students who support gay marriage arrived. They allegedly began ripping up the fliers, shouting a flurry of obscenities and suggesting that the message of religious conservatives<\/a> does not deserve to be heard.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIt seems like the more you hear about inclusion and diversity in higher education, the less you hear about the truth, the more the truth is shut out of the conversation\u201d Ritchie said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It seems as if the concept of free speech at Notre Dame only applies to ideas approved by the left end of the political spectrum.<\/p>\n
