A University of Buffalo (SUNY) professor was arrested for screaming obscenities at an administration approved graphic pro-life display. While cursing profusely, she accused the pro-lifers of being "profane."
The video below shows the arrest along with the professor cursing and finally yelling out to surrounding students to tell her 1 p.m. class that she wouldn't be able to teach that day because she was being taken away in handcuffs.
I contacted the media relations department at UB and they confirmed the arrest. John DellaContrada, Assistant Vice President for Media Relations at UB, told CMR that:
"Laura Curry was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct. She is an adjunct instructor of media study. She is entitled to due process under the law.
This was a display by a student club, the UB Students for Life. Student organizations are allowed to reserve space on campus for purposes of free expression.
The University at Buffalo strives to create an environment in which diverse opinions can be expressed and heard. As a public university, it is a fundamental value of UB that all members of the campus community and their invited guests have a right to peacefully express their views and opinions, regardless of whether others may disagree with those expressions. This includes the right of protesters to oppose the views or opinions of others, but not in such a way as to limit or prevent the speaker's freedom of expression or interfere with university operations."
I asked whether there would be any ramifications over the incident but I didn't receive an answer on that.
Mind you, Professor Curry curses an awful lot while accusing the pro-life display of being profane.

I think you nailed it. Sometimes the violently opposed cannot face the destruction of humanity they have already committed.
She and her ilk don’t want to be shamed for having/supporting abortion.
Just like they don’t want young girls to be shamed for their out-of-wedlock births.
Just like they don’t want to be shamed for being promiscuous.
A response that violent means it’s personal. I hope, for her sake, that the college requires her to get grief counseling. There are women who are unable to vacuum their house because they’ve never healed from an abortion. Those who work with women’s prison ministries say that 80-90% of the women in prisons began their life of crime as a coping mechanism for the guilt they felt over an abortion. They wanted to be punished, though they may not have understood the connection at the time.
I’ve always believed that abortion leaves one dead and one wounded. That wound needs to be opened up so the pus can drain and life enter in where there had only been fear, death, and guilt. Life is a beautiful choice, and a woman who has aborted eventually needs to choose life for herself too. She needs to choose not to keep walking in the death she chose in desperate circumstances.
If anybody is reading this - man or woman - who is dealing with a past abortion, please know that any of us is capable of doing what you did, given difficult enough circumstances. We don’t have any stones to throw. You were afraid, you felt alone, and there seemed no way out. Nothing you have done or ever will do changes the love that Jesus has for you. He knows the dungeons you’ve lived in and the shame you can’t tell anybody. He loves you anyway. He came to earth to take all the blame for your sins and mine, and be killed for it, because losing His own life was more bearable to Him than losing yours or mine. He’s not blaming you. He’s reaching His arms to you, to hold you close, let you cry out to Him every hurt and fear you’ve ever had, and give you in its place hope and healing. Just like all of us have needed.
I really pray that this woman will find healing. Jesus really loves her.
That dyke whore obviously wanted to get arrested. Like most public school teachers, she probably didn’t get her lessons ready for the day and she needed the break.
Good question, because I could not look at her without thinking she is the kind of woman my lesbian daughter calls “family”. Think about it.
Hmmm... let me guess. A womyn's study lecturer who strongly supports LGBT issues, right?
Perhaps four or five of them...
Wow...she goes right off the rails...just like some of the women in my Red Hampshire neighborhood...
Well put.
Got me thinking about what other rites the liberal church engages in.
Thank you for your compassionate post. I am a sidewalk counselor and I completely agree with your analysis. Some of the wonderful people who come to pray at the abortion mill are post abortive women who are seeking to help others avoid the mistake of thinking abortion is the answer to their problem. Abortion is NEVER the answer. I join you in praying that all will know the love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ, for HE alone is always the answer.
