I would've felt threatened by the professor and called the police.
She's clearly harassing him and violating his civil rights.

Do Professor Anderson’s thuggish actions also make you feel “scared and uncomfortable?” I’m sure she would want to know.

Sorry, a little off topic but.... A few years ago my daughter had to give a “How to...” presentation in her college communications class. She decided to do it on Trap Shooting. (Which she was pretty good at and was in a league.) However; as she was loading her shotgun into the car to take it to school as a prop, I intervened. I had to explain how nervous colleges get these days when somebody is wandering around campus with a shotgun. We settled on a couple of clay pigeons and an umbrella. At the end of her presentation, she offered to take anyone in the class out to the range and show them how. The whole class raised their hands to go. Although the teacher stated that he was very anti-gun, he gave my daughter an “A” because of the class response. (Plus she's cute.)

“I would’ve felt threatened by the professor and called the police.”
BINGO! Under the circumstances presented above, you have the correct and appropriate response.
To: super7man
Great analysis of the situation. Great solution. As I have mentored the young Marines in my sphere of influence — Now is the time for them to use the brains the good Lord gave them and be very aware and very vigilant. These are dangerous times to bear the burden of defense and protection of the Constitution.
Kudos to you.

Next up...a call to the campus police because the professor's Marxist spew is making the students uncomfortable.

The student’s first amendment rights have been violated. He should sue the professor, university, and campus police. The professor should be fired over this stunt. The university and police department should provide a public apology for this attack on free speech.
To: satan
That was my first thought. Rent a cops have access to firearms registries?

And don’t forget the right not be “offended”. All these “rights” (including abortion) are, of course, explicitly spelled out in the Constitution.

Upon entering the police station, the officers began to list off firearms that were registered under his name, and questioned him about where he kept them.
Answer, "None of your damned business and if I'm not under arrest, this inquiry is OVER." Then file a lawsuit against the school, the professor and the police for civil rights violations.

It seems Mr. Walberg violated the other students’ right not to hear or see anything that might make them uncomfortable. I also had no idea that making people feel uncomfortable I wonder what the professor said that prompted the cops to look up his gun registration information. How was it represented that his comments comprised a threat to the well being of our students, and the campus community” and why she “perceived risks”.

We need to start using the left wings tactic of “law suit at the drop of a hat” against them.
If we sue any time and every time we can, they will back off. Yes, I realize shysters are drooling at the idea, but we have to use the tools at hand and the only one that seems to work is taking money away from them as often as possible.

Believe you me, I work at a university. This is NOT the
case. It is “1984”. I have found myself in the “principles
office” more than once myself over “perceived” offenses.
Gees. Don’t give me that “free and open exchange of ideas”
crap.....

John Wahlberg may believe that he “owns” some guns, but some night in the wee hours at about oh-dark-thirty, his doors will come crashing down, and he and his family will be cuffed naked on the floor, as the men in black jumpsuits trash his house.

True enough, though it seems to me that if colleges are still marketing themselves that way they should be vulnerable to ‘false advertising’ claims. In an ideal world of course.
