Interesting how he brags he doesn't have to pay anything because the insurance company is paying for all of it. The settlement says he didn't admit to any wrongdoing and still has the right to complain to the administration if he feels the students are breaking the rules in the future.

So what was the point of the settlement if everything is couched in those terms?

Assuming that you believe him (which I do not), he can no longer fuck with these students, which is all they wanted in the first place.

It absolutely amazes me how small mined many of these so called "academics" are. Really kind of scary.

Good on the student group for pursuing it.

It is amazing at what passes for a professor at a college these days. When I was in school, there was no censorship of any kind and most professors were conservatives. Man have things changed in 30 years. One of my favorite professors in college, was my Business Law professor, Mr. Israel. He would not hold back and would let you know in front of everyone if you were an "idiot just wasting his time", his exact words for those who did not study.

Bullies tend to not change their behavior until forced to do so. An injunction is good, but this scenario will likely happen again, in a different way.

In the last year I have been absolutely blown away by Leftists abusing the First Amendment. They have attacked both verbally and in some cases, physically--those they disagree with. Each day a new abuse comes to light and it's hard to rank them, but...this is unbelievable!

There should be a national database of those who violate the civil rights of others. Shitheads should be registered and required by law to go door to door and tell their neighbors what they did. They should have to reveal it to potential employers. Just like sex offenders. This shit would come to a grinding halt.

If he really does have insurance for this kind of thing then you have to wonder what's going to happen to his premiums as a result of his willful and pointless behavior.

Ha ha.

He should have been made to apologize and to acknowledge the students’ right to free speech. He should also take part in diversity training.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Free speech zones? The whole country is a free speech zone.

As a reminder for the professor, the following is a Free Speech Area:
