The judge admitted Injunction He opposed the ban on drug shows at Texas A&M University and ordered the university to allow “Drug Gieland” performances at schools.
The university's Regent Committee bans drug shows across the system's 11 campuses, but U.S. District Senior Judge Lee H. Rosenthal has sided with the Texas A&M Queer Empowerment Council, which challenged the order.
“State authorities should stop trying to score political points at the expense of students' first amendments.”
“It's a ticketed event. Only those who want to attend are those who do it,” Rosenthal insisted. “Everyone who finds an attacker of a performance or performer has a simple remedy. Don't go.”
The suit was filed on behalf of Queer Council by Fire, the Foundation for Personal Rights and Expression.
“State authorities should stop trying to score political points at the expense of students' initial right to amend their students.” I said Fire counsel Adam Steinbow.
Despite losing in court, Regent's resolution led to other universities banning drug shows on campus.
According to a Texas A&M resolution, “drug show events are likely to create or contribute to a hostile environment for women.”
“These events include unwelcome, objective offensive behavior based on the gender of many members of each university community, especially when it involves ocking and objectification of women,” they added.
The resolution cited an executive order signed by President Donald Trump, who established a binary definition of male and female gender, for observation by the federal government.
