The American Bar Association is seeking to ban 'disruptive conduct that hinders free expression' after two incidents involving woke Yale and Stanford students and staff.
In March, students at Stanford were filmed screaming at a Trump-appointed judge who was invited to speak at the school while an equity dean defended them and lectured the guest rather than subduing the rabble.
In March last year, Yale students were caught snarling 'I'll hurt you b***h' at a different conservative judge during a debate on freedom of speech at the prestigious law institute.
The Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar, which accredits all law schools in the United States, proposed the rule after these incidents.

The draft requirement, obtained by The Washington Free Beacon, said law schools must 'protect the rights of faculty, students, and staff to communicate ideas that may be controversial or unpopular,' including through public demonstrations.
At the same time, it hopes to prohibit protests to that stop 'free expression by preventing or substantially interfering with the carrying out of law school functions or approved activities.'
The proposal comes amid accusations that the bar association has been trying to stifle free speech through its accreditation process.
Last year, the ABA was criticized when it said all students had a 'duty to eliminate racism' which at least 10 professors at Yale said would impede academic freedom as a result in compelled speech.
The association also considered forcing schools to 'diversify' their student bodies - but axed the proposal a month before the Supreme Court heard arguments in Students for Fair Admission v Harvard - which outlawed race-based college admission.

As disruptive student behavior becomes more commonplace experts said the proposal would fill an important gap.
'The current standard doesn't provide any substance,' Paul Lannon, an attorney at Holland & Knight who specializes in education law, told ABA Journal. 'This kind of guidance from the ABA is long overdue.'
After defending raucous behavior from students against Trump-appointed Judge, Stuart Kyle Duncan, Stanford's Associate Dean for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, Tirien Steinbach, refused to apologize and instead bragged about her behavior in an op-ed for The Wall Street Journal.
Duncan was greeted with posters along the walls of the prestigious university - which said he'd committed crimes against women, the LGBTIQA+ community and black people.
He was asked to give a speech at the famed institution about the circuit's Court of Appeals by the student chapter of the conservative Federalist Society, but was met with abuse.
Steinbach stepped in during the screaming, but instead of calming the students down, she started lecturing Duncan for six minutes using pre-prepared notes.
In her first public rebuttal over the incident, Steinbach said that she intended to 'deploy de-escalation techniques' when she stepped up to the podium where Duncan was speaking.
'My intention wasn't to confront Judge Duncan or the protesters but to give voice to the students so that they could stop shouting and engage in respectful dialogue,' she wrote.
'I wanted Judge Duncan to understand why some students were protesting his presence on campus and for the students to understand why it was important that the judge be not only allowed but welcomed to speak.'

She claims that her role was to 'observe' and 'de-escalate,' before bragging that she got involved to stop the 'verbal sparring match.'
But footage shows her launching into a six-minute long speech, which she admitted was pre-prepared, in which she attacked the judge.
Student protestors launched vile insults at the judge, including telling him his 'daughters should be raped' after tempers flared over his ruling in the case of a transgender pedophile.
Steinbach believes that 'free speech isn't easy or comfortable' and claims that she tried to defuse the situation by 'acknowledging the protestors' concerns.'
Law School Dean, Jenny Martinez, and Stanford President, Marc Tessier-Lavinge, have since 'formally apologized, confirming that protesters and administrators had violated Stanford policy' days later.
Waggoner's opponent, progressive Monica Miller of the American Humanist Association, was also escorted out of the building
The same time last year Yale school students who snarled 'I'll hurt you b***h' at a conservative speaker during a debate was defended by the Ivy league school.
Yale claimed at the time that the woke rabble-rousers have been 'spoken to' about their threatening behavior on March 10 2022, which raised concerns that they've only been given a slap on the wrist only emboldening them to continue their authoritarian behavior.
Despite the chaos at the college's Federalist Society-organized event, Yale Law said in a statement that school police 'assistance was not needed' and that students had followed the rules.
They issued the mealy-mouthed statement after nearly 120 Yale Law students were filmed yelling at Kristen Waggoner, a conservative Christian of the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) nonprofit during a debate with a liberal humanist about freedom of speech last Thursday.
The protesters berated the speaker, chanting 'protect trans kids' and 'shame, shame' throughout the law school building after police officers escorted Waggoner and her debate opponent out of the building.
Yale Law also noted that school officers were on the scene because the school's policy dictates they assist security guards for Waggoner and the other speaker, progressive Monica Miller from the American Humanist Association.
The presence of those cops further infuriated the woke protest group, who claimed having them on campus 'prevents queer lives from flourishing.'
Ellen Cosgrove, Associate Dean and Dean of Students at Yale, remained silent during the chaotic incident, sparking allegations of academic cowardice.
In the statement, Yale Law said the dean is committed to allowing others to speak freely at the university.
'We allow people to speak even when their speech is flatly inconsistent with our own values,' it said.
The students screamed profanities at Waggoner, including one who yelled threats
The incident began when students were filmed threatening the guest speakers and staff at a free speech event where a conservative guest successfully defended a Supreme Court decision of a Colorado baker who refused to make a cake for a gay wedding ceremony.
The purpose of the panel was to illustrate that a liberal atheist and a conservative Christian could find common ground on free speech issues, according to the Washington Free Beacon.
Both the ADF and the American Humanist Association took the same side in a 2021 case involving legal remedies for First Amendment violations that was presented to the Supreme Court, but protesters were outraged by the ADF's successful Supreme Court defense of a Colorado baker who refused to make a gay wedding cake.
Miller was harangued ahead of the event by students claiming her very presence at the event was 'harming the flourishing of queer lives,' with Waggoner and ADF supporters hit with threats at the meeting itself.
When law school professor Kate Stith introduced Waggoner, the protestors stood up and displayed signs attacking the nonprofit Alliance Defending Freedom, for which Waggoner works.
Waggoner expressed horror at the students' behavior, alleging 'the future of the legal profession in America is in dire straits.'
'It was disturbing to witness law students whipped into a mindless frenzy. I did not feel it was safe to get out of the room without security,' she told the freebeacon at the time.
'Yale Law students are our future attorneys, judges, legislators, and corporate executives. We must change course and restore a culture of free speech and civil discourse at Yale and other law schools, or the future of the legal profession in America is in dire straits.'
