"A free-speech debate has erupted at Cleveland State University after the school’s lukewarm response to the posting of a homophobic flier that encourages lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer students to commit suicide.
The flier was posted last week on a billboard in CSU’s main classroom building, according to Cleveland’s Plain Dealer newspaper. It reportedly appeared the same day that the university’s first LGBTQ center opened its doors.
The flier shows the silhouette of a man hanging from a noose, statistics on LGBTQ suicides, and the words “Follow Your Fellow FAGGOTS.”
