I guess they will just let any total, blabbering idiot be a college "professor" today.
Referring to the threat of being fired, Daly said his situation reflects a trend for non-tenured instructors.
"As more and more professors are teaching part time, this is a direct attack on our academic freedom," he said.
Daly's e-mail also claimed that "capitalism has killed many more" people than communism and that "poor and working class people" are recruited to "fight and die for EXXON and other corporations."
BARF!
Gee. I may need another hanky.
Using your position as a faculty member and using university resources to promote your own political views is not freedom of speech.
We can't send you to jail for it. But we can end your employment, just like my company could end my employment for promoting my views in such a public and controverisal manner.
Translation: lets sit on this till the heat gets turned up and we have to suspend him with pay

Terminated....like killed? Maybe by his students, that turn on him, like he suggested of the US Troops?
"... terminated ..." Such a deliciously broad word in this case ...
People pay huge amounts in tuition in order for their children to be given a college education. The obvious trash that is now taught in college along with the professors that are trash is a crime in itself.
Termination is excessive. I'd settle for an old-fashioned tar-and-feathering of the traitor.
"Real academic freedom will come when students in college turn their guns on their professors."
Adjunct English instructor John Daly of Warren County Community College needs to be sentenced to live in an islamic country for about 5 years. After those five years of being an infidel and getting treated as such, he may have more respect for the American military
I heard the young lady who received the email on Sean Hannity's radio show yesterday. She made a terrific point. The professor is an employee of the state and her right to free speech was being threatened by him and those like him, not the other way around.
That's what I suggested at the time. If fragging superiors is correct behavior, he should have every reason to fear his own death at the hands of his students.
He said if he had know she was a freshman he would have used a different tone, but the content would have been the same.
How is this an apology? I can you tone down the words "rise up and shoot your officers?"
Daly just found out theat even though we have freedom of speech there are responsibilities and consequences when we use it.
Like they say in the Mexican Marines--el tougho sh!to!!!
Boo hoo widdow baby! Sombody infwinging on you widdow academic fweedums? Now you know how it feels, ahole. About time someone infringed on the academic freedom of liars, instead of normal people with normal values.
