The Long March Through the Institutions — only “the right people” get recommendations and are allowed to work in the field.

Wrong teacher to ask for recommendation. Possibly wrong school to attend.
Hoplophobes are everywhere.

If we ever see this headline:
Professor Struggling to Write Recommendation for Pro-Gay Student
Then the professor will likely be fired.
Maybe, just maybe, professors should grade the students on academic performance and not political views.

What better way to shut down countless pro-gun students in the Western US than to write an anonymous letter threatening all of them with a bad recommendation.

No idea which university liberal indoctrination center, nor professor.

It’s always about feelings with these twerps. And their “feelings” always seem to be more important than facts, laws and individual rights. Grow up, professor, put on your big girl pants and write the recommendation. Or don’t. But quit using your agonizing over this decision as a “convenient stick” to beat the pro 2nd amendment crowd.

Read this article on a different web site that wouldn’t allow me to post here, glad someone found a work around. Professor doubts her own mental stability and believes all people are to unstable to have the dreaded and scary gun around.

Gun ownership has become a far more defining issue than ability or suitability.

I felt a great disturbance in the Force...

Nehemiah 4:10-23 NIV
 

15 When our enemies heard that we were aware of their plot and that God had frustrated it, we all returned to the wall, each to our own work.

16 From that day on, half of my men did the work, while the other half were equipped with spears, shields, bows and armor. The officers posted themselves behind all the people of Judah 17 who were building the wall. Those who carried materials did their work with one hand  and held a weapon in the other, 18 and each of the builders wore his sword at his side as he worked. But the man who sounded the trumpet stayed with me.

19 Then I said to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people, “The work is extensive and spread out, and we are widely separated from each other along the wall. 20 Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, join us there. Our God will fight for us!”

21 So we continued the work with half the men holding spears, from the first light of dawn till the stars came out. 22 At that time I also said to the people, “Have every man and his helper stay inside Jerusalem at night, so they can serve us as guards by night and as workers by day.” 23 Neither I nor my brothers nor my men nor the guards with me took off our clothes; each had his weapon, even when he went for water.[c]

She seems to be a good kid, Sarah. And I don’t know what she really thinks of gun advocacy and political failures that have cost us all these lives and our sense of safety as educators. I don’t know what she does on the weekends. I also don’t know if she understands emotions, or what real rage feels like. It seems to me no person who has truly experienced the full impact of their own emotions would ever go near a gun...

How can I say that I don’t want to support students who are gun enthusiasts, without getting put on some sort of list? … I mean, she’s applying to a teacher-credential program, for God’s sake. I wish the way forward was more black and white to me — that I knew what to do in this situation. But I don’t.


What a patronizing, condescending you know what.

In article:

"...My father, you see, suffered from terrible manic-depressive episodes and my mother eventually had heard enough about the risk of suicide that she instituted gun control in our household. My father died of natural causes when I was in college and I always kind of quiver in my heart when I think about what my mother did. I’m glad I didn’t lose him earlier to suicide. To have known him less time than I did, which by now is less than half of my lived life, would have been hard..."

There is a heredity component to manic-depression. It was pretty clear to me she is the one who has issues.

The article is shallow, and looks like it was written by a high school student. Check this out, to start the article: "...Since I started teaching six years ago, I’ve become more interested in gray areas. Maybe it’s because dealing with students seems to highlight all the complex ways in which a simple plan can break down. I sometimes have fantasies about what it’s like to be that teacher who’s seen it all — the dude who came to the final exam inebriated, the student who offered sex for a grade change. What would it be like to take all of that in stride?"

What a load of self-absorbed, juvenile horse crap. "What would it be like to take that in stride" indeed.

People who are against "free" college tuition aren't only concerned about the concept of the government even being involved at that level in any way distributing taxpayer money for this, they also understand many "institutions of higher education" just like this one are liberal indoctrination mills. They are (and would be on a much larger scale, if "free) continuations of the public school system.

remember this student well..if you’re ever in a public place and someone starts shooting, you may have to hide behind her, or someone like her.

I will make it simple for her. I also work in higher education and have a staff of 9 people, one of whom is an extreme liberal. Regardless of this staff members political or philosophical views, I've always conducted her annual review and given her raises based on her performance and accomplishments. Does this professor think that it should be otherwise?

After reading the responses to her propaganda piece, I think said “professor” got a rude awakening. As far as I read, ALL the comments told her that she was completely wrong not to write the letter of recommendation.

In other words, the so-called professor would deny her students their constitutional rights, both in terms of the first and second amendments.

I believe it is time to deny such people their “right” to be employed at a state-funded institution.

Liberals are not happy people.

Liberals will never be happy people.

The “professor” has presumably reached the end of her rainbow. Has tenure. Summer’s off. Shows up to work 16 hours per week...maybe 20 hours at most. She’s hit the jackpot right? WRONG!

Liberals can not be happy. The are never without hardship, they will always find themselves in “a struggle” of their own creation.

Ask yourself, if writing this recommendation is such “a struggle” and she’s made it that, how irrelevant is the rest of her life and daily goings on?

VERY!
