A revered military leader, retired Lt. Gen. William “Jerry” Boykin, has been dismissed from his teaching post at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia for comments he made responding to President Obama’s order to public schools to allow boys who “identify” as girls to use girls restrooms and changing facilities.
In a Facebook statement, Boykin confirmed the college’s move.
“Let me make it official and let you all know that I have been terminated from teaching at Hampden-Sydney College after nine years there. Hampden Sydney is the 10th oldest college in America and is one of the two men’s colleges left in #America. Let me begin by saying that it is a fine school with some very good young men who give me hope for the future. There are also a few very good faculty members who I consider to be good friends and true patriots. They stood with me through this whole situation as the school made the decision to terminate me and I appreciate everything that these friends at the school did to try and help.”

This Country is looking more and more like the weakest of the European countries everyday. Obama has ruined this country and I have a feeling that was his perverted goal from the start. Folks we need to stand strong against this wave of liberal tyranny and vote Trump. If not our Country will continue to be the laughingstock of the world. Shame on you Barack Hussein Obama. Your morals and world view has wounded this Country and what it stands for.
I am so glad someone took a stand, even at personal cost.
Our country is now void of real leaders.
He’s available as a VP pick.
Just sayin’...
He’d be a good one. We’ll need a good military mind!
He could have been allowed to explain it was only hyperbole. Unless it wasn’t, in which case the school has made its position clear. In an age suffering from lack of Christian faith, surely the first thing we do can’t be to torpedo it worse.
What has actually happened is that one of the final remaining fig leaves of America has been attacked. It’s sad that it wasn’t considered a tragedy decades ago when Christians started acting like the world in affairs marital (and otherwise).
Tenure? Please, he’s not a liberal.
This evil institution kept its bathrooms segregated for hundreds of years. Since they can never remove that stain, they should simply close their doors. Anybody associated with that institution in any way should never get another job, and should certainly never receive federal benefits of any kind. /s
Tenure has outs for moral turpitude and such. If he had tenure, I’m sure they found a way to steal it from him.
0buttbongo could well be called Commodus..
You are just So right! Hundreds of years? I say shut them down tomorrow, if not, sooner./s
For 7½ years Obama has been setting the stage for a final mad dash to complete as much of his “Fundamental Transformation” as possible.
We are going to be living in a whirlwind of radical change in the next 8 months.
We thought we were in liberal hell before but now Obama is going to show us what it really is.
Obama has abandoned even the slightest pretense of governing within the law and within the constitutional limits of the presidency.
Why not?
He has gotten away with his unconstitutional tyranny since 2009 and he knows the lily-livered do-nothing republicans in the senate and congress will let him do what ever he wants.
“He’s available as a VP pick.”
Hell, he’s probably available as a combat military leader. Pay him a million dollar salary to train an army in your state. How do you pay him and his troops? Go to all these conservatives sitting on their piles of cash and ask them to contribute to the cause.
Find out new things every day. I thought tenure meant ten year and this guy only has nine.
And already retired from the military doesn’t mean he has nothing to fall back on.
I am glad he spoke out.
Me too, but research didn't bear that out.
“kept its bathrooms segregated for hundreds of years”
You are correct. We are all guilty. This is the end.
Homo-Fascism
Totalitarian toilet police. SHTF moment?

The plunder and perversion will continue until morale improves.
Zero representation.
