A student at an Orange County, California community college has been suspended after he recorded one of his professors telling her class the election of Donald Trump was an “act of terrorism.” From the LA Times:
In a Feb. 9 letter, Victoria Lugo, interim dean of students at the Costa Mesa college, informed Caleb O’Neil of the suspension for one “primary (fall/spring) semester in addition to the summer” and other disciplinary actions against him, including that he submit a written apology to the professor, Olga Perez Stable Cox, and a three-page essay asking him to examine why he filmed Cox’s class, how he feels about his footage going viral online and his reaction to its causing “damage to Orange Coast College students, faculty and staff.”
O’Neil, who campaigned for Trump, says he felt targeted by the speech because people in class had seen him wearing Trump campaign gear. After listening for a few moments, he pulled out his phone and recorded the professor’s statement, which he says went on for nearly 20 minutes. O’Neill gave the video to the college Republican club. The president of the club posted a portion of it online and it quickly went viral. The original clip has been viewed over 400,000 times.
O’Neill held a press conference at the school Wednesday afternoon. The LA Times reports:
O’Neil, often speaking to the crowd with his head lowered, called Cox “a good teacher” but said she “directly attacked” conservative students like him.
“I was scared I’d have repercussions on my grades because she knew I was a Trump supporter,” said O’Neil, who later added that he received an “A” in the class.
It’s good there was no change in O’Neill’s grade, but obviously the suspension is a more significant repercussion. O’Neill is now being represented by William Becker, an attorney with Freedom X, a group that defends conservatives in freedom of expression cases. Becker told the Orange County Register, “This is an attack by leftists in academia to protect the expressive rights of their radical instructors at the expense of the expressive rights of conservative students on campus.”
In the original clip, professor Cox says, “Our nation is divided. We have been assaulted. It’s an act of terrorism.” “We are way beyond Republicans and Democrats, and we’re really back to being a civil war—and I don’t mean it in a fighting way, but our nation is divided as clearly as it was in Civil War times,” Cox says. Cox reportedly moved out of state at the end of the previous semester but returned for the new semester. It remains unclear whether she will face any disciplinary action.
“...including that he submit a written apology to the professor, ...”
Dear professor:
I’m sorry that you’re a butthurt little snowflake facist that can’t stand anyone opinion but your own. And I’m sorry that you’re such a small-minded, mentally deficient, petty little asswipe that you have to resort to this kind of douchebaggery to silence opposing viewpoints.
There’s your apology, “professor”.
Suck on it.
I wonder if that might be the same Olga Perez Stable Cox that lives somewhere on Flamingo Drive in Costa Mesa. Not going to give out the actual address in case it’s a different Olga Perez Stable Cox that happens to live in the same vicinity.
Leftist administrators and Leftist teachers don’t want the public to know the radical leftist agenda in higher education. The only free speech allowed on campus these days is Leftist speech.
Exactly. Sue the bastards
i absolutely agree with you. Furthermore, the classroom is NOT the place to politicize any aspect of our lives, professional or not.
Cameras would protect the professor falsely accused of politicizing anything, too.
I love it. Send it.
Its a community college so not expensive.
CA ones are quite cheap ad they are highly subsidized. Under $50/unit usually.
what changed -
politics.

Yeah, there's probably a lot of them...Like John Smith.
I’ll write the “apology” for him. He’ll get expelled, but it’ll be legendary.
One of my Alma Maters
If I were that student, I’d flip the professor off, leave the school, and then sue their asses off for “creating a hostile environment, intimidation, and racial microaggression” and whatever other liberal fantasy butthurt I could come up with.
Start a GoFundMe page to pay fof the lawsuit, and put it all out on YouTube and other social media.
No one has to sit there and take this crap. There’s other schools to go to.
Here’s where I heard of her before:

Why do they SJW always go into hiding when called on their BS. This one is in hiding out of state.
If she believes what she said she should be out there and proud
