What a dumbass! He should have stuck to something safe like besmirching 9-11 victims by comparing them to Nazis.
Do my eyes deceive me or is the ACLU siding with an individual who's allegedly made disparaging remarks about deviant behavior?
I prefer this lecture to Churchill's one calling New Yorkers Nazis who deserved to die on 9-11.
I once got in a little trouble for suggesting in a class that on average men are taller than women. Seriously.
Gay sex is of particular concern because among homosexuals, promiscuity is more the rule than the exception. For example, the December, 1989 issue of Archives of Internal Medicine refers to a Los Angeles report that gay males averaged over 20 sex partners annually. Some studies show that those in supposedly ''steady'' relationships are even more promiscuous, engaging in dozens of trysts a year outside the relationship.
A 1998 study that appeared in Psychological Reports used four databases to investigate the life spans of gays versus heterosexuals. It concluded that the homosexual lifestyle sliced 20 to 30 years from practitioners' life expectancy. Supporting this was a 1994 obituary investigation in the Omega Journal of Death and Dying, which determined that the median age of death for gay males was 42 and for lesbians 49.
The school choice movement needs to be expanded to the college level. Create a bunch of Grove City style colleges and universities where professors like this can speak the "Truth" and students can learn. Charge a Grove City-like tuition, and eventually starve these liberal indoctrination clinics.
I had to blink twice to make sure I was reading what I was reading.
Years ago I taught real estate law and real estate economics at the college level. We were discussing loan and bank fraud in real estate, and a student asked about a hot topic -- Madison Guaranty. I explained to them how the Clintons did it. I didn't get in trouble.
bump!
and I am amazed to see the ACLU doing something valid for a change
I don't know, people. I must have led a sheltered life, attending college in Texas back in the 70s. It's really getting weird out there.
NO. No. But read closer...the [without]A CLU did plenty of backfilling, hemming and hawing about how they don't AGREE with the good professor but....
Nope...same bunch.
Sorry, all the neocommunist protectors of civil rights are kissing Churchill's butt; this schmuck will have to fend for himself!
UNLV Regents Chairman: Hoppe Should Not Be Disciplined
In an exclusive interview with UNLV Board of Regents Chairman, Dr. Stavros S. Anthony, Dr. Anthony told EconomicsDaily.com that his awareness of the Hoppe Controversy was based on newspaper reports, but what he has seen in newspaper reports leads him to believe that Hoppe was stating valid economic theory.
"If what he is stating is valid economic theory, then he should not be disciplined."
Dr. Anthony went on to say that if Hoppe is disciplined, there is an appeals process that could result in the matter ending up before the Board of Regents.
High Time Preference
Many have emailed to ask for a definition of high time preference, since it is part of the Hoppe controversy. This is how Mark Thornton explains it:
.
Mature people have a low time preference, a longer time horizon. They have high rates of saving and capital accumulation and practice healthier lifestyles. People with high time preference tend to live for the moment, spend more than they earn, and engage in risky activities and unhealthy lifestyles. Policies that promote free enterprise and individual responsibility have the positive effect of reducing time preferences while government nannyism, like the welfare state itself, increases time preference and exacerbates the problems of irresponsibility.
