In many states at a State University the campus police are a branch of the State Police ie real cops.

I say he screwed up by going to the “campus PD”.If they wanted to talk to him they should have issued an arrest warrant after which time he could have sued for false arrest.

An inexcusable overreaction by the prof, IMO. Ought to be fired.

This is quite typical of what is happening at most of our colleges and universities these days. They’ve been taken over by the communists - all those draft dodgers that got college deferments back in the Vietnam War days are now running our schools.

‘A GOOD REASON not to “register” your guns! What state did this happen in? HOW would the campus Barney Fife’s access that info?’

I had a jurisdiction question with a University of Ill Annoy campus officer and found out that they are a division of the state police.What’s scary , if there’s an office of the university in a given county, they have jurisdiction in that county.

So making someone feel “uncomfortable” is an offense punishable by the police now?

Hard to say the teacher intended to censure him.

He did mention Virginia Tech. We don’t know the text of the oral presentation.

Considering a kid’s unfamiliarity with the language, the influence of pop culture cadences, and nervousness often perceived as aggression, the talk might have seemed threatening.

The prof would have been obliged to give somebody a heads up.

It looks like the cops over-reacted.

Show any passion or emotion with a rightward twist and you are classified as a person about to go postal.

Just wait until your firearm rights can be stripped due to your political beliefs.

It won't be so blatant, but liberals will eventually install a mental standard into the NICS that can be triggered if someone reports you as a potential threat.

The person reporting will be given full protection and will remain anonymous while you will have to pay a lawyer to get your firearm rights back.

Well, if this were me, I'd throw this right back on that stupid professor and file formal complaints with the University against both her and the campus cops. If I did not get the satisfaction of seeing her head on a platter, then the University could talk to my attorneys as the next step, particularly on the gross privacy violations of looking up his firearms registrations.

I wonder if this kid stayed in her class after this?

She is a rat. They do this stupid stuff all of the time; but at least we can identify them as it takes someone dumb as a rock to do what she did.

“After all, a university campus is a place for the free and open exchange of ideas.”

If only that were true.

That is in a court of law. In this case, there is no court until you challenge the finding.

Welcome to guilty until proven innocent.
