First the punishment, then the trial. Wrongful termination suit in the offing i should think.

If history is an indicator, apeshit time is on the horizon.
Men of will exist, in their minds, waiting.

I agree to an extent.
Impulse control is both our strength and weakness.
The binary switch flips eventually.

Associate Professors typically have tenure, so can’t be fired for offensive speech. That is why they’ve concocted the charge that he created a hostile environment.

You guys might find it a little difficult to believe, but when I went to UCF in 1973 we actually had a sociology Department that encouraged free thinking. I’m not saying that all my professors were conservative, not by any stretch. But they were open-minded and encouraged debate and free-thinking. It was fairly small school at the time, maybe seven or eight thousand students? It also did not have a football team, which I liked.

Several of my professors who would have been considered relatively liberal at the time would be run off campus now for some of the things that they said then. I have to believe that they would be appalled at the state of the University now.

It’s true. You can say hateful things about white people and get away with it.

A friend of mine, who taught a class at UCF, said once “that seeing his Senior class students’ lack of writing skills, he would not accept a degree from UCF at face value if he was interviewing a prospective employee.”

Your eyes lie. Truth is that which advances rat interests.

Speaking or writing an untruth is a crime. The rat’s SA, their BLM and Antifa thugs punish the guilty.

Yield. Grovel. Seig.
