I sent this to the Drexel University president:

Dear President Fry,

I am writing you concerning the incident where Professor George Ciccariello-Maher’s an Associate Professor of Politics and Global Studies instructor at your fine university who provided some rather obscene and vile commentary on Twitter.

The story from the American Thinker is provided for your reference:

Needless to say this has many people upset and rightfully so. The right to freedom of speech is a right I strongly respect and uphold, however in the case where that speech is seditious and promotes violent behavior is where the line is drawn. There are both state and federal laws which deem what he did as criminal. I am an academic and a national security professional and I highly consider Prof Maher’s comments to cross the line in that area. I call for one the immediate termination of Prof. Maher’s employment with Drexel University. I have several friends who are Drexel Alumni who are disgusted with his behavior. Please do the sensible thing, condemn his remarks and remove him from the ranks of professionals like ourselves where this kind of behavior should not be tolerated. To not do anything but a simple reprimand will be looked at as condoning his extremist, hateful positions. That will lead to many of us taking stronger actions such as boycotting or banning Drexel students from providing research for science and industry. Being put on a blacklist for the actions of a reprobate such as this is not worth it.

Respectfully
