Hoppe was the professor at UNLV who was disciplined by the PC administration at UNLV after he said he an econ lecture that gays were less likely to save money. Michael Knight, a gay student who was "offended" had complained.

Sadly, because of the Ward Churchill feeding frenzy, freepers have given the Hoppe case very little attention. Unfortunately, some folks here seem more interested in attacking academic freedom rather than defending conservatives and libertarians who are losing their academic freedom. Whatever your views, however, I think we can all agree that Hoppe needs help!

I agree. Hoppe's case is a disturbing assault on academic freedom by PC forces. I support his right to say what he said, even though I do not agree w/ Prof. Hoppe's strictly libertarian views.
