A myth holds that the Left in America has stood for tolerance and freedom of speech, while forces [on the right] have persecuted them. They usually tell us some of these forces were the House Un-American Activities Committee, Hollywood "blacklists," and McCarthyite "witch hunts." People who believe the myth are surprised when, campus leftists shout down, harass and even attack conservative speakers. Isn't this out of character for the Left?
