In all honestly it was the best possible outcome. I don't like to revel in someone's firing but they need to look at their academic standards.

You would expect someone who was an assistant professor of journalism to know the basics of free speech. For that reason alone they should consider their suitability for that role.

The gift that keeps on giving:

"Mizzou’s Melissa Click says she feared student journalist had a gun"

She noted that Schierbecker had a small camera that appeared unprofessional to her. She advised us that she was concerned that he might be armed with a gun, particularly as the Missouri Legislature had recently passed a law allowing concealed firearms on campus.

Actually no – the Chronicle notes that a bill allowing campus carry was introduced a month after Click’s tangle with Schierbecker.

Can you point to anything other than some dumb kids and a kooky professor?

Regressiveness is becoming a huge problem in universities right now and this is not minor, nor does it lack influence. This is not all of the left.

The problem is these "dumb kids" aren't small in number. Naive is a better term. Whole student union have convinced there students to vote on such draconian policies. This is in the UK and Canada too, so the problem is international.

Just go to Sargon's Youtube and start watching videos for a mountain of knowledge about the regressive left.

Mizzou Faces $32m Deficit, 20 Percent Decline In Enrolment After Last Year’s Protests

"Following last year’s protests, the University of Missouri has seen a 20% decline in freshman enrollment for its incoming class, and is now operating with a $32 million deficit. As a result, the Interim Chancellor of the University has sent out a letter detailing their recovery strategy in response to the controversy."

Also, if she believed the journalist had a gun she asked that the students come and disarm him, endangering them :D

Oh, this woman is really, really bad for everything involving progressive thought.

When did we start fighting for segregation again? Safe zones? Ummm, that's your dorm or whatever.

Assaulting people for wearing dreadlocks as 'cultural appropriation'? Sorry, but in my day, we called that flattery, and it's not endemic to blacks. All cultures have had it at one time.

All of this lunacy is being led by people like this. The student body is getting to where I am having trouble understanding them

What would these people have done at Kent State?

Thanks Darmok for guiding me here. I am pretty steamed about this type of complaining.

"“This is all about racial politics,” Click said in the Chronicle of Higher Education article. “I’m a white lady. I’m an easy target.”"

Seriously? This is the conservative argument about everything 'white and Christian' being under attack.

AAAUUUUGGGGHHHHHH!! !! !! !! !! !!
