I have heard Judge Andrew Napolitano, on Fox News, say several times today that it would be illegal to fire Churchill because the right of tenured professors to say ANYTHING they want to say is settled law...under the context of free speech. He said if the university tries to fire Churchill they will end up owing lawyer's fees and a big settlement--plus they will be ordered to reinstate him. I just HOPE this is not true.
Just *&#$ing lovely, ain't it?
In this case, as Dickens, I think, stated in one of his novels, "The law are an ass". Imagine how fast the University would find a reason to fire this nincompoop if he said something against the PC canon. Imagine if he said, for example, that blacks are inferior or that women should stay at home and raise children. Imagine.
I wish this Judge was nominated to the SCOTUS. Although we may not all like his opinions all the time. He follows the LAW and not some whim.
BTW..when the FL Supreme Court came down with "the" ruling in the 2000 election, the Judge was FURIOUS and rightfully predicted what would happen. I can remember him saying "They are legislating!"
Only because Churchill is employed by a PUBLIC university. If it were a private institution, they could can him.
They might be able to fire Churchill if he falsified his credentials and his Indian heritage claims. His Indian heritage is discredited by the very tribe of which he proports to be a member. He's a fake and a lunatic.
The speech from a lunatic is always free...of lucidity.
