An unexpected lesson in freedom of speech Write-in candidate cut off during pro-white speech By Anne Halliwell and Morgan Eads news@kykernel.com
A group that included high school students got an unexpected lesson in the messiness of freedom of speech Wednesday during
Constitution Day celebrations in the Cat’s Den. Write-in U.S. Senate candidate Robert Ransdell’s microphone was cut during a speech to promote his 2014 “With Jews We Lose” campaign platform at the
third day of Constitution Week events, which were sponsored by the First Amendment Center’s Citizen Kentucky Project and organized by UK’s Citizen Kentucky class. Ransdell, a self-de-
scribed pro-white candidate, discussed his platform that says American policy favors Israel over its own citizens and that there is a bias against white Americans in crime coverage and policy. He was invited to speak by a student who helped organize the event, according to an article on WUKY.org.
A quick Google search of Ransdell shows multiple articles and posts detailing the write-in candidate’s prowhite platform. As of Wednesday night, it was unclear if Ransdell’s platform had been known to organizers of the event. First Amendment Center director Mike Farrell said
that he needed to speak to professor Buck Ryan, the Citizen Kentucky project director, before commenting. Ryan was not available to the Kernel for comment. The event featured several other speakers, includSee FREE SPEECH on page 2

ig Blue Madness ticket hopefuls tossed footballs and visited with neighbors in the tents that have sprung up on all sides of Memorial Coliseum and spread out around the marching band field. The annual campout for tickets for the public basketball practice officially opened at 5 a.m. Wednesday with about 650 tents, according to the UK Athletics blog. The tickets will become available Saturday at 7 a.m. “UK has a huge community,” said psychology and political science freshman Briana Katinic. “What other university do you see people drive out and camp out in tents for tickets? No one else is this into it.” Katinic and her roommate joined in an impromptu cornhole game on their way to get dinner, she said, as they wanted to meet some of the ‘new’ people on campus. Charlie Hounchell and Jeff Phillips arrived at about midnight, they said, but failed to move up in line. Hounchell, a Walmart worker, said he learned more in arriving later this year than he had in the last five after being whacked with a tent pole in a land grab and gaining a wheal across his back.

Students learn about education abroad opportunities By Yan Wang news@kykernel.com
Students gathered in the Student Center Grand Ballroom on Wednesday to learn about education abroad opportunities at the Education Abroad Fair. The Education Abroad Fair showcased a variety of international education programs provided by UK. Students could ask questions regarding issues like passports
or financial aid. The main purpose of the fair was to provide resources and assistance for UK students, said Seth Riker, education aboard promotion and outreach coordinator. “It can be very overwhelming if students don’t know what they are looking for,” Riker said. “Our overarching goal is to let students know that there is a program for them.” Greg Huff, a student mo-

Injuries provide fantasy owners with waiver options Replacements include Redskins’ backup quarterback JOSHUA HUFF Kernel Columnist
Week Two of the National Football League season has come and gone. Meaning that fantasy team owners are searching the waiver wire for upcoming talent to bolster their rosters. So, here are some rising fantasy players that owners should keep an eye on: Kansas City Chief tight end Travis Kelce. Kelce saw more action during Week Two against the Broncos. He played 32 of 86 snaps and caught four passes for 81 yards. The Chiefs will be looking for new talent to step up with Jamaal Charles out indefinitely. Washington Redskins tight
end Niles Paul. Paul replaced an injured Jordan Reed Sunday and finished the game with eight catches for 99 yards and a touchdown. With Robert Griffin III out, Paul should receive more opportunities from Kirk Cousins. Look for this tandem to produce big stats with Reed out for a few weeks. Washington Redskins QB Kirk Cousins. Cousins took over for an injured Griffin and proceeded to throw for 250 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. Owned in eight percent of leagues, Cousins has great upside. He is a good fit for Jay Gruden’s system and should look to continue to put up big numbers. Next week he faces a reeling New York Giants team, so now would be a great time to pick him up. Just be wary, his next two games are against the Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardi-
nals. Buffalo Bills QB EJ Manuel. Also owned in just eight percent of leagues, Manuel has led the Bills to a 2-0 record. During those win, his Bills have scored 23 points or more. With the addition of Sammy Watkins, Manuel has run less this year, meaning that more teams will start to respect the pass, which will open running lanes for Manuel, who has great speed. The Bills face the San Diego Chargers in Week Three, so look for Manuel to have another positive outing. Cleveland Browns WR Andrew Hawkins If you haven’t already heard, the Browns’ No. 1 receiver Josh Gordon was suspended for 10 games. Opening the door for a new No. 1. And that is Hawkins, who through two games has 14 catches for 157 yards. He sees plenty of looks playing

in the slot and is quick in the open field. Cincinnati Bengals WR Mohamed Sanu With A.J. Green expected to miss at least a game, Sanu has risen to the top of the depth chart for the Bengals. He recorded three catches for 84 yards and a touchdown in Week Three. Look for him as a short substitute for your No.
2 or 3 receiver. Kansas City Chiefs RB Knile Davis With Jamaal Charles down, Davis stepped up for the Chiefs, chalking up 105 yards from scrimmage with six catches and two touchdowns against a much-improved Denver Broncos defense. San Diego Chargers RB Don-
ald Brown Since Ryan Mathews went down and is expected to miss a month, Brown brings his similar skill set to Mathews for a control-the-tempo type of offense that the Chargers utilize. He should get the ball close to 15 times a game, and the Chargers dropped 30 points on Seattle last week.
OPINIONS
Focus should be on issue rather than NFL NICK GRAY Kernel Columnist
The last 10 months has given the National Football League a constant black eye. Four incidents involving domestic violence in that time involving four separate players have clouded the aura of the start of the NFL season.
Baltimore Ravens' Ray Rice, Carolina Panthers' Greg Hardy and Minnesota Vikings’ Adrian Peterson have all been indicted on different types of charges regarding some type of domestic violence, while the San Fransisco 49ers’ Ray McDonald has been arrested. Only Rice, though, has completed the legal process, and the lack of substantial punishment — due mainly to Rice's relationship with his then-fiancee, now wife — has led media organizations such as ESPN, CBS Sports and Yahoo to express anger toward Rice and the NFL for their
public handling on the issue. The action and focus on the actual issue — domestic violence — was much less documented. Domestic violence is a huge issue in the U.S. A special report by the Department of Justice reported that 21 percent of violent crimes from 2003-2012 was domestic violence-related. Accordingly, countless commentaries and outrage from sportswriters and columnists on social media have lambasted Rice for what he did and the NFL for suspending him a meager two games. The outrage intensified when
TMZ released a video showing Rice punching his then-fiancee in a casino elevator. The Baltimore Ravens released him hours after the video release, and the NFL indefinitely suspended him. Countless media members spoke up online and on television, calling for Rice's suspension and criticizing the NFL and the two other franchises for allowing its indicted players to play while due process ran its course. Even ESPN's Adam Schefter, who has been touted as the most plugged-in of all the plugged in reporters in the NFL, harshly criticized the
NFL, the Ravens, 49ers, Panthers and Vikings for not jumping the gun ahead of the justice system. The message from Schefter and other reporters: if the justice system cannot provide the justice we think is right, then we should push the NFL to do so. The media may be trying to get justice with the collective push toward substantial justice as a way to push for fair and just punishment, but they miss the mark. Making Rice, McDonald, Hardy and Peterson the focus and the face of all domestic violence is good and well, but when the dust settles, domestic violence
will be no less preventative when the focus is on the accused and not the issue itself. Football and sports can be used to shine light on societal issues and improve the problems we have in everyday life. Making Ray Rice and Greg Hardy's life a living hell may be a scare tactic, but it does nothing to help prevent domestic violence. And using scare tactics is exactly how we got to this point in the first place. Nick Gray is the managing editor of the Kencucky Kernel. Email ngray@kykernel.com.

DuPont Manual journalism teachers Jamie Miller and Liz Palmer were awarded the Enoch Grehan Prize. “Constitution Day is not about politics, it is a celebration of the principles of the Constitution,” wrote UK spokeswoman Kathy Johnson in a statement released by the university Wednesday evening. “All speakers are asked to focus on those principles.

The University of Kentucky was not aware of the content of his remarks prior to him speaking and does not condone or endorse any political platform or agenda.” Al Cross, director of the UK Institute for Rural Journalism, was supposed to follow Ransdell’s speech with a talk about campaign finance. Instead, Cross’ speech began with a discussion of how Ransdell’s talk had been a learning experience about how freedom of speech can often be messy. Cross said that rather than cutting the power to Ransdell’s microphone, he might have told the staff to inform Ransdell that his time was up.
“It was an unintended experiment in the nature of free speech,” Cross said. “I’m uncomfortable (with) anyone being pulled off the stage for saying things people don’t agree with.” Frank LoMonte, executive director of the Student Press Law Center, said it can be difficult to cut off a speaker, particularly at an event celebrating the First Amendment. The fact that there was a “captive audience of young people” would play a role in that decision, LoMonte said. “This is always the tension when you invite a wide open discussion on social and political issues,” LoMonte said. “There is always a risk that someone is going to say something ex-

The first part of the speech dealt with the Constitution, said Abigail Shelton, a student who helped organize the event. It was only when Ransdell began to discuss his political beliefs that he was cut off by a Student Center employee, she said.

The Young Americans for Liberty did not witness Ransdell’s speech and would not comment on whether his right to free speech was violated, wrote chapter president Dallas Browning, a political science and economics major, in an email to the Kernel. Ransdell told the Kernel he called after the event to apologize to Ryan, who seemed caught off-guard by his speech. Ryan seemed supportive of free speech in all forms, Ransdell said, but that was the extent of his backing.

A video on Youtube showed the speech by Ransdell as well as Miller’s response. “I don’t know how that guy managed to weasel his way up on stage, be part of this production, but I think it’s disgusting,” Miller said to cheers from the front rows. While the event was uncomfortable, Cross added, the encounter was a teachable moment for the students attending.
