The University said in its press release that this group had contacted the school about the potential for violence. In other words, they said "we are going to be doing things on campus that might make people violent towards us".
Be honest. If PETA was doing all of the above, would you call it a free speech issue?

Yeah, I would. The true test for freedom of speech is that you support it when anyone does it. I feel just as much sympathy for the pro-life's tactics then I do for PETA's tactics. I still think they deserve freedom of speech and the public space to do so.
