Porn professor goes berserk on campus

A professor of feminist studies who specializes in teaching pornography, queer theory and black film is accused of going berserk at a California pro-life demonstration last week, stealing and destroying an anti-abortion sign and assaulting a teen girl who tried to retrieve it.

Police are now investigating the events involving Mireille Miller-Young, who teaches at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

According to the Santa Barbara Independent which first broke the story, Miller-Young came across the pro-life display sponsored by the Christian pro-life group Survivors of the Abortion Holocaust on March 4.

Thirteen members of the group had posted banners and literature which displayed graphic imagery of late-term abortions designed to spark conversations with passing students.

Joan Short, a 21-year-old student at Thomas Aquinas College and a member of the pro-life group, told the paper Miller-Young exchanged heated words, complained about the anti-abortion message, and led the gathering crowd into a chant of “Tear down the sign! Tear down the sign!” before grabbing a banner and walking with it across campus.

As Joan called 9-1-1, her 16-year-old sister, Thrin Short, began recording the events on a smart phone, as the pair followed the professor and two of her students into a building to try to retrieve the banner.

The Independent report states:

As Miller-Young and the students boarded an elevator, Joan said that Thrin repeatedly blocked the door with her hand and foot and that Miller-Young continually pushed her back. Miller-Young then exited the elevator and tried to yank Thrin away from the door while the students attempted to grab her video camera. “As Thrin tried to get away, the professor’s fingernails left bloody scratches on her arms,” Joan claimed.

The men in this country better wake the hell up.

WTF?

Let me guess: it's the guys fault when a woman gets an abortion.

Idiot.

"I’m guessing but if THAT (Mireille) is teaching pornography s/he is not qualified."

Those that can, do.
Those that can't, teach.

Was the beast arrested or charged with assault?

If not confirmed with testing the perpetrator, I'd hope that at least the victim started a series of rabies shots.

Those that can do, those that can't teach.

"She was awarded a PhD and the title "Dr." for that. A committee actually reviewed and decided she should be awarded that prestigious degree."

Exactly what I was thinking. To get a PhD you have to not only write a thesis, but DEFEND it in front of the faculty.

What kind of nincompoop faculty would "accept" such tripe?

And didn't they have a few questions when she was defending?

I could come up with about a thousand reasons why this whole thesis is completely anti-academic, and of no possible educational "value".

I would have failed her.

(Laughing out loud, wiping away the tears): That's nice, but now that we've heard your cuckoo dissertation, how about showing us something that demonstrates an intelligent and coherent thought?

“- women have deep seeded emotional problems due to their upbringing. Not an excuse, just fact.”


Someone who lived in a cave would grunt something like that.

I could come up with as many reasons as to why “higher education” has no real educational “value”. It’s the formality of the indoctrinator.

Egads. According to https://ucannualwage.ucop.edu/wage/ (go there and type her name into the search boxes) this woman’s gross pay is $124,750.04.

Imagine that; 6 figures for someone who studies black women in porn movies. 30 years ago, a person who did that was was probably sitting in a dimly-lit, stick-floored theatre.

How does one get a gig teaching...pornography?

When you're too ugly to get a gig making it.

You missed my point entirely or you clearly didn’t read both of my posts. The “men” I’m referring to are those who completely ignore their responsibility to properly raise their offspring and being a part of their children’s lives - and in this case, their daughters - resulting in the feminist bitches like this one.

Why the need to call someone an idiot when you’re the one who’s clearly not paying attention?

uh, dude? The word you are groping for is “SEATED” not “seeded.” Try picking up a book once in a while.

Wow, you are such an erudite person! Have you read a book? I am impressed!

I understood exactly what you meant, and I'm still wondering when my idiot brethren in faith are going to start recognizing you can't lead women who refuse to follow!

People like you ask when men are going to buckle down and start getting serious about pulling in this "tug-o-war" of morals and values, but you completely ignore the fact that the women actually have a significant advantage in horsepower when it comes to political and social influence!

You are exactly who C.S. Lewis was talking about here:

“In a sort of ghastly simplicity we remove the organ and demand the function. We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honour and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful.”
So tell me, when does the ubiquitous societal evil perpetrated by women become their own responsibility?
