HERNDON, VA Warren Community College English professor, John Daly, said that Real freedom will come when soldiers in Iraq turn their guns on their superiors. Rebecca Beach, a freshman at Warren Community College in Washington, New Jersey, received this unexpected reply to a recent email she sent the faculty at her school announcing the appearance of decorated Iraq war hero, Lt. Col. Scott Rutter, on Thursday, November 17 to discuss Americas accomplishments in Iraq.
In the email, Daly told Rebecca that he will ask students in his English and writing classes to boycott the event and also vowed to expose [her] right-wing, anti-people politics until groups like [Rebeccas] wont dare show their face on a college campus. Dalys mean spirited and hateful comments were directed at Rebecca for organizing Lt. Col. Scott Rutter and for hanging up fliers contrasting the number of people killed under communism to those liberated under Ronald Reagan.
Since Professor John Daly has created a hostile learning environment for Rebecca, she is demanding that Warren Community College President William Austin institute seminars on free speech and sensitivity to teach intolerant leftists, such as Daly, to be respectful of differing opinion
Dalys insane email to Rebecca also claimed that CAPTIALISM has killed many more people than communism [emphasis his] and that the poor and working class people are recruited to fight and die for EXXON and other corporations.
John Daly was hired to teach English, not to verbally attack students and lead leftist protests, said Jason Mattera, spokesman for Young Americas Foundation.
The full unedited text of Dalys email follows.
November 13, 2005
Dear Rebecca:
I am asking my students to boycott your event. I am also going to ask others to boycott it. Your literature and signs in the entrance lobby look like fascist propaganda and is extremely offensive. Your main poster "Communism killed 100,000,000" is not only untrue, but ignores the fact that CAPITALISM has killed many more and the evidence for that can be seen in the daily news papers. The U.S. government can fly to dominate the people of Iraq in 12 hours, yet it took them five days to assist the people devastated by huricane Katrina. Racism and profits were key to their priorities. Exxon, by the way, made $9 Billion in profits this last quarter--their highest proft margin ever. Thanks to the students of WCCC and other poor and working class people who are recruited to fight and die for EXXON and other corporations who earning megaprofits from their imperialist plunders. If you want to count the number of deaths based on political systems, you can begin with the more than a million children who have died in Iraq from U.S.-imposed sanctions and war. Or the million African American people who died from lack of access to healthcare in the US over the last 10 years.
I will continue to expose your right-wing, anti-people politics until groups like your won't dare show their face on a college campus. Real freedom will come when soldiers in Iraq turn their guns on their superiors and fight for just causes and for people's needs--such freedom fighters can be counted throughout American history and they certainly will be counted again.
Prof. John Daly
Here's what I wrote:
Dear Mr. Austin,
By now you are probably aware that one of the English professors, John Daly, has gone on record for the oppression of free speech and dissent on your campus and on others and has advocated the murder of members of the US Armed Forces. To wit, professor Daly wrote the following in an email communication to Warren Community College student Rebecca Beach:
"...I will continue to expose your right-wing, anti-people politics until groups like your won't dare show their face on a college campus. Real freedom will come when soldiers in Iraq turn their guns on their superiors and fight for just causes and for people's needs ..."
I am curious what you plan to do in response to these ravings in that this hateful, abusive rant certainly creates a hostile learning environment for anyone who might hold an opinion counter to Prof. Daly's. I suggest Prof Daly be required to attend workshops on free speech and diversity of opinion, on fostering a learning environment that encourages civil debate, and in light of his poor grasp of English grammar ( he also wrote: "Your literature and signs in the entrance lobby look like fascist propaganda and is extremely offensive.") I also recommend some workshops on English grammar and syntax.
Best of luck with this,
...
There is an additional lesson here.Many school systems in this country have been teaching the whole language approach to English for 15 years.If you read this guys statement in his bio you get a great explanation of this method.Grammar and spelling do not matter.
He also needs to get a dictionary and look up the meaning of profit margin before he attempts to use the term again.
041, 042, Basic Writing? Those are classes a seventh-grader could pass, and he's teaching them at a college? He must not be too bright.
Leftist college professor ping
Thanks Lloyd
And thanks to everyone who has done the same.

Er, professor, the U.N. imposed the sanctions, and administered them. The U.S. liberation of Iraq brought the sanctions to an end.
If -- instead of laughing at you -- we accept your Saddamite figure, and bearing in mind that the sanctions were in place from August of 1990 to (I think around May of) 2003, then we get 1,000,000 dead children, divided by 166 months, for 6,024 dead children per month on average.
This means that, over the last 30 months, the U.S. led liberation of Iraq, and U.S. requested lifting of U.N. sanctions, has saved the lives of about 180,720 Iraqi children. (And counting.)
bump this back to the top
This so called professor is an idiot, maybe his next job could be writing for michaelmoore.
And then there's this simpering "apology"... |
Check out this apology from the college... it looks like they may leave this guy to the sharks!

D'ouh!
Have you seen the idiot professor thread?
Hey, great minds think alike. ;-) |
I was just thinking that. He actually made several glaring errors. The fact that he is allowed to teach an English class at any grade level is alarming.
Since the professor also seems to be unaware of the scope of genocidal policies pursued by Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot and other communist leaders, thinks the U.S. rather than the U.N. imposed sanctions on Iraq, and thinks the run-up to the Iraq war consumed 12 hours rather than 14 months, I'd say he could use some remedial training in history as well.
In fact maybe it would be simpler if the professor were simply required to enroll in the community college, as a freshman?
I'm thinking that someone needs to take a flamethrower to that guy!

a part-time instructor, Mr. John Daly
Huh? Has Mr. Daly already been demoted from "professor"?
Oh, EXCELLENT letter, btw...
