Free Speech Wins: Student Returns to Law School After Controversial Posts
Florida, Gainesville, USAWed Nov 26 2025
A student at the University of Florida is back in school after a judge said the university broke the rules. The student, Damsky, was kicked out for writing things online that upset people. One post said, \"Jews must be abolished by any means necessary. \"
The judge said the school should not have punished the student for speaking his mind. The judge also said the school did not prove that the student's words caused real harm. The student's lawyer called this a big victory for free speech.
The school did not say much about the decision. They might try to fight it in court. The student missed a whole semester of classes because of this. He will be back in school by December.
Some people at the school felt unsafe because of the student's words. They told the school leaders, but nothing happened until the online post. The school said the student caused too much trouble and kicked him out.
The student wrote papers saying the U. S. was built on race and should stay that way. Some people thought this was a call for violence. The judge said the student likes to push people's buttons.
The school can still try to stop the student from coming back. A big court case is coming in May. For now, the student wins.
