I'm waiting for college coaches to be reprimanded for having too many Negroes on their teams, and not enough "diversity".

This is fairly settled case law. I’m surprised that University administrators thought they could get away with it.

It may take a while for them to realize they are personally responsible. They will seek access to and use state money to appeal the court’s decision all the way to the Supreme Court knowing they have 3 solid votes, and have a good chance of getting 2 out of 3 from Kave-in-naugh, Roberts and Amy CB - Mitch’s fake traditional constitutional justices. But I share your hope.

I hope he gets a settlement good enough to retire on out of the pockets of these administrators. NOT out of the taxpayers.

The administrators have been slurping money from the public trough for so long that everything in their possession came from the taxpayers.

And, being administrators, they paid themselves quite handsomely.

Jordan denied the claim of qualified immunity and also denied the school's demand to have the case dismissed outright.

:Pat pat:

Good Judge! Have a scooby snack.

Remember people, praise your judges when they do something right as well as smacking them when they do something wrong.

Positive reinforcement works.

In all seriousness qualified immunity should be severely restricted as a legal concept if not done away with altogether.

The idea that because you work for the state you have no responsibility to do your job correctly and have no liability is wrong.

It’s a state (government) school, not a private school.

Is it?

Yes.

If a MLB team expects its players to be respectful of veterans and other patriots by standing for the National Anthem, can the player sue the team for damages if they fire him for it?

Only if they fire them for not standing for the National Anthem on his own time.

You take the king's shilling, you do the king's bidding.

Or rather, your employer's, bidding while on company time.

On your own time is another story.

Firing a math professor for disagreeing that math, the universal language, is fundamentally racist is more than a microaggression. I’d say it’s a mega-aggression.

It’s hard to believe that Denton County is reliably conservative with this University, and Texas Women’s University.

Took me a little while to figure it out.

The university was claiming qualified immunity for school officials in the case, meaning that the school wanted its officials to be excluded from being held responsible for their actions merely because they were acting in their position as state employees.[emphasis mine]

Since they are state employees (i.e., paid by the government) they may be criminally liable under USC Title 18 Section 242 (denial of rights under color of law).

And pico- and femto-aggressions? Not to mention the far more offensive mili- centi-, and deci-aggressions. Those are the really bad ones

What about plain old mean, kick ass aggressions?

# University of North Texas had some great souvenir coffee mugs for sale a while back. They had the UNT logo prominently displayed, such that if one were to use the mug left-handed, the handle looked like a “C”. :P

UNT has a radio station. being west of the mississippi river, it’s call sign was obvious, but they didn’t use it.

Absolutely agreed.

the left are hypocrites, they are the most intolerant of all...and don’t want conservative or opposing views.
