The campus chief of police at Mount Holyoke College has been placed on leave after students confronted him about supporting President Trump.
Students dug up tweets from Chief Daniel Hect which showed he thinks favorably of Trump, likes the National Rifle Association, and supports a Mexican border wall.
Last month, members of the Mount Holyoke administration held a forum for students to engage with the newly hired chief of campus police. The Mount Holyoke News reports that students questioned Hect about his personal views amid “tension and tears.”

And there is never any push-back against this sort of thing. So I guess the only lesson here is that if you're a conservative in public employ, better stay off of social media.
Freedom of speech? Forget about that outdated old idea.
If they fire him, he should sue for unlawful termination.

He sounds like a great guy. Off with his head.
Sorry, in my anger I forgot to post the author and date. Admin, please fix.

Unbelievable. But stay off social media.
“After seeing your tweets, I now know what it feels like to die in a North Vietnamese prison”
Once these Millenial clowns become the majority our First Amendment is toast.

Unless he’s got an iron-clad contract, I don’t think the chief has any recourse. Political viewpoint is not a protected class like race or veteran status is.
He might as well lawyer up now. I’d look in to work place harassment if it were me.
What kind of Orwellian BS is this?
Buy ammo folks, because sooner or later you’re gonna need it. The bolsheviks are grooming the mobs through the universities. The kids don’t have a clue, but it won’t matter. They are “gone”.
Correct response? “Grow up, you entitled children.”
Under Trump, the country moves in the right direction,
but brings with it a terminal contagion.
Very tolerant of them.

Or even a simple “You have a right to your views, and I have a right to mine.” But that never happens! Instead people just surrender, grovel, and apologize. And so the liberal fascists keep getting bolder with their demands.
Yep.
It would be funny if some of these high-minded protestors were listed on Rick Singer’s rolodex or were phantom members of a sports team.
We don’t need to stay off social media - we need to sue for discrimination.
If I was the Administrator, I would have a clipboard full of forms to sign for all those offended, then EXPEL ALL OF THEM for being too immature for Higher Education.
I worked for a psycho true wun loving demented phb-ette in the early years of the wun. I had no love for the wun therefore, I was a non-person.
Insanity and power on any level is dangerous.
Fascism is alive and well on campus.
