"Key American freedoms are less fragile than they were even a decade ago. . . . the attacks are still very real."

“I can’t even tell you how many times I saw the same pattern in my legal career. An aggressive university or aggressive government agency would take direct aim at a social conservative client… the university would not only lose, it would also sometimes set a precedent that built the fortress of free speech or religious liberty larger and stronger. ” - David French

I fear,though, that he may be whistling in the dark as he passes the cemetery. (But I’m responding to the brief statement above, not the full article, as I am unable to open it.)

I can’t read the article either, but even if he has always seen freedom come back “better than before,” I’d like to remind him and people that think the same way that just because it’s happened that way so far doesn’t mean it will always happen that way again in the future. That should be obvious, but it’s amazing these days just how often the obvious needs to be pointed out yet again…
