Florida Bill To Allow Students To Sue Professors

The sheer level of stupidity of this bill - being pushed by Republicans, natch - is mind numbing.

However, should this become law, I would find it terribly amusing when the first communist/socialist-leaning student in some economics class decides to whip out the legal stick this legislation would give him on his conservative professor who makes the mistake of 'criticizing' his 'beliefs' by saying - well, anything (according to this broad bill) - negative towards those two economic models.

Any reasonable person would see the folly of this, but then Florida Republicans aren't exactly known to be reasonable. But, at least they can figure out a butterfly ballot.
