That look like an apology?

Yup. An fbi apology.

>> “I am not in Fresno. I fear for my life,” the professor said

Self-inflicted fear.

Condemn policy, behavior, character, but never threaten the well-being of another. It’s not only illegal, it serves no constructive purpose.

You're from CA, yet you've never heard of Fresno State? Worse yet, you think it's funny.

Fresno State University produces major league players, like former Tampa Bay Quarterback Trent Dilfer.
PUNCH HERE

Better yet, List of California State University, Fresno people acquaint yourself!

I might remind you that Jim resides in Fresno and that Fresno is the home of Free Republic.

The Left-winger received death threats?

Well, golly gee, what the Hell was his tweet ALL about, if not death to President Trump.

I think he'd be better off teaching convicts/cell mates.

He only tweeted it to 28 fellow travelers, who then re-tweeted it to other fellow travelers who then re-tweeted it to other fellow travelers ans so on and so on.

These are the kind of people who think everyone in the world agrees with them and no one can or would blow the whistle on it all.

Kinda like the last administration and the 2016 Democrat candidate

This hack said Trump should be hanged.

Now, this hack is on the run, in hiding in fear for his own life.

Ironic.

“After receiving death threats”

Not “after his claims that he has received death threats”

If it were professor Abimael Guzman, whoever revealed his tweet would have been assasinated. That is how the left ACTUALLY thinks. Most Americans don’t have a clue.

It shows the state of advanced education in our country, not just Fresno. An American History Professor, that means someone gave this flake a doctorate in the discipline — how very sad.

He was given a doctorate by some shameful university and then the State of California university system made him a professor, probably life tenured.

We are at war right now. Guys like that should not be coddled. Send a few like the professor to GITMO and the rest will learn to keep quiet.

>>>>“I wrote them to an audience of 28 followers on Twitter under the assumption they would be read by people I know.”<<<

In my day we would refer to his 28 Followers as Co-Conspirators.

“Maischak said he sent the tweet in February to voice personal despair over comments by Trump”

What does that even mean?

So the professor says something that is Anti-Democracy saying that trump should have to “save Democracy”, is funny. Democracy worked that elected Trump; The Professor hates Democracy

He’s sorry his comments about his wishes were spread beyond his 28 followers. Not sorry/apologizing for what he said. No “I didn’t mean it” there. Just fear of the backlash.
