Professors at the University of New Hampshire are calling for the expulsion of two students who counter protested an anti-Trump rally while wearing Harambe and Richard Nixon costumes.

A former UNH professor, Courtney Marshall, posted a photo of the students on her Facebook, writing, “There was a walkout yesterday at my former institution (UNH), and these two people showed up.”

The post led several current professors to call for the expulsion of the students, even writing sample letters to administrators in the comments.

“Time to call for an investigation leading to the expulsion of these students,” said Robin Hackett, an associate professor of English as well as a faculty member of the Women’s Studies Program, before listing the names of several administrators for professors to direct their complaints.

Since the original days of the Leninist insurgency, counter-revolutionaries have been looked down upon.

People need to call for the ouster of this professor. And someone might want to tell him he is in the minority of college-educated voters..

"...many of us who received that letter were concerned that it treated all sides equal. And yet no critical thinking person can say that people supporting and people opposing Donald Trump are equal"

Their funny bones were sacrificed and used to increase their cranial bone densities. It was a necessary trade-off on the way to becoming real boneheads.

Wrong Austin Powers meme. Should have used the one where he says, “It’s a man, baby!”

Walter E. Williams:

“While academic leftists, and I’d include their media allies, are not communists, they are anti-anti-communists. In other words, they have contempt for right-wingers, conservatives or libertarians who are anti-communists. Why? Academic leftists, and their media allies, are in agreement with many of the stated goals of communism, such as equal distribution of wealth, income equality and other goals spelled out in Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels’ “Manifesto of the Communist Party.” Leftist elites love the ideas of communism so much that they are either blind to, or tolerant of, its many shortcomings.”

I’m thinking if this college receives federal funds they should be sued for 1st Amendment violations

“Red” Hampshire has changed so much since the days that it was quite certain from the start that Richard M Nixon would win the little state’s electoral votes. Now even the ‘’Union Leader’’ turned against the Republican nominee.

How does the former professor know that the people in the costumes are students? Their identities seem to be well hidden.

How is wearing a gorilla suit or a Richard Nixon mask a sign of "ableism"? Harambe was the most competent gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo? Nixon was more competent than any Democrat President in recent history?
