Melissa Click, the former University of Missouri assistant professor who was fired after she tried to block a student journalist from covering a campus protest, suggested in a recent interview that her public termination was a matter of racial politics.
This is all about racial politics, she told The Chronicle of Higher Education in an interview published Sunday. Im a white lady. Im an easy target.
Ms. Click said Missouris Board of Curators fired her to send a message that the university and the state wouldnt tolerate black people standing up to white people, the Chronicle reported. Ms. Click didnt elaborate on how that would explain the termination of a white woman.
The Chronicle reported that Ms. Clicks nerves are perpetually on edge since her firing in February, when she began moving out of her office in the dark so she wouldnt run into anyone.
She was suspended and eventually fired by the university after a now-viral video showed her trying to grab a camera from student Mark Schierbecker and calling for some muscle to remove him from an encampment of black student protesters. An assault charge against Ms. Click was dropped when she agreed to perform 20 hours of community service.

My favorite line in the article involves Ms. Click describing the aftermath of her firing,
“Two young men she passed near the campus asked her if she needed some muscle. She considered it a threat.”
Perfect.
they say that a conservative is a liberal that got mugged . . . I wonder if this is it for her.
Boy is this woman all tied up in knots. She ought to go do some real work on a farm for a year or two and get her head screwed on straight again, if that is even possible.
Am I to understand that there’s really no such thing as white privilege or worse, that being white can actually count against most people in most situations owing to the artistry of people like Melissa Click?
She didnt even play the gyno card.
White guys dont even have that one.
poor melissa...thought she was quite the big shot calling for ‘muscle’ to intimidate a student reporter...
not such a big shot now, are we missy?
One crazy nut-case....
The Chronicle reported that Ms. Clicks "nerves are perpetually on edge" since her firing in February, "when she began moving out of her office in the dark so she wouldnt run into anyone."
Yeah, I'll bet her "nerves are perpetually on edge". This woman is a genuine candidate for straight jacket in a rubber room. She lives in a make believe world called Academia, where any sort of criticism of any member of a "disadvantaged group" (that is, anybody but straight white males) is considered a hate crime that can get one fired or expelled.
She feels that she can do anything she wants to without reproach or criticism, and she has depended on the university to enforce that as her birthright. And it seemed to work for her right up until they fired her.
This li'l controversy has removed the cloak of campus invisibility that protected her precious feelings, and she's all over the news and the internet, getting blistered for her psychotic behavior. So she's unemployable, and the whole world knows about it.
And she can't stop people outside of the university cocoon from violating the "safe space" she carries around in her head. I really think this woman needs heavy medication and constant supervision. The DEA should send a "DO NOT SELL A GUN, KNIFE, OR POINTED SHEARS TO THIS PERSON" notice to any agency doing background checks.
Seriously. She's bat sh*t crazy.
Good one!
She was fired because she encouraged thugs. However, if she had not been white, they could not have fired her even for that. She’s lucky she’s white - it gives her a chance to learn from her mistakes and improve instead of being stuck forever as a predatory parasite.
for later
Claims:
1) She’s a lady. Patently false, so we know she’s a liar.
2) She’s white. She’ll need to present her entire DNA genome to prove that. Appearances imply a maternal experiment involving self abuse with carotinoids gone horribly wrong.
Not so fast. She was an idiot, and she should have been fired. But, had she been a black idiot, she probably wouldn't have. I think she's right about that.
But, what is so awfully wrong here is that a BLM idiot can get away with all sorts of stupidity, a white idiot only a little less so. She's presuming that the pass on BLM behavior is the new normal standard she should be held too. Ha-ha!
Isn’t she the homely redhead who wanted “muscle” to handle a Breitbart reporter?
Well said, I totally agree.
No Soup for YOU!
No Melissa. You may be white, but I'm quite sure you are not now, never have been and never will be worthy of being called a "lady". You see, the term "lady" is not something you automatically get when they issued you a vagina.
It is a term of respect, given by gentlemen to women who are worthy of respect. Women who have the grace, manners and intelligence to to behave like a lady are what we call "ladies".
Not many of those around anymore. Lots of b*tches and "baby mamas" and psychotic freaks who work for emasculated males as assistant lecturers (or whatever your job title was) at "the university" until they get fired.
But ladies, not so much.
