A woman in South Africa has been convicted of a speech crime and is being sent to prison. This stems from a viral video where the woman said the racial slur 48 times to police officers.
In the UK two teenagers were arrested for yelling racist things outside of a college dorm.
At what point should people be arrested for speech? At what point does speech become harassment?
Many people say there is no threat to free speech or that there is no hampering of Campus Free speech, but perhaps that is not true.

| 0:00.0 | The first amendment does not grant us the right to free speech, it protects our right to free speech |
| 0:05.6 | from the government. The right to free speech is something that we all just tend to agree on, |
| 0:10.4 | and not everybody. Currently, there are a few limits on what you can and cannot say. |
| 0:14.8 | You can't incite others to violence. You can't create a clear and imminent threat. But there are |

| 0:30.2 | when he made his Nazi pug video, he was convicted and tried. We have a story now from South Africa, |
| 0:35.7 | where a woman was charged and convicted for using a racial slur many times, and another story from |
