Twice in One Day...

...we find ourselves in agreement with Republicans.

John Armor, candidate in the Republican primary for U.S. Congress against Charlie Taylor in the 11th Congressional District, has written to the chancellor of Western Carolina University about unfair treatment at the hands of that university, which allowed an event for Charlie Taylor on its campus but not one for John Armor.

North Carolina colleges and universities are public property. If political campaigns of any stripe are willing to pay applicable fees and abide by applicable rules, then it's clearly not fair to welcome one candidate and bar another.

Isn't that covered in Free Speech 101?
