A visiting University of Tampa professor of sociology was fired Tuesday after he suggested in a tweet Sunday that Texans deserved Hurricane Harvey because of their support for President Donald Trump in the 2016 election.
University spokesman Eric Cardenas said in a statement that Kenneth Storey was fired after the school weathered an outpouring of online outrage over the comments.
Officials said other faculty in the sociology department would take over Storey’s classes.

Tell me again - Conservatives are ‘haters’ That’s the standard mantra we hear every day.
This stupid, hate-filled liberal is getting his just come uppance, IMHO.
I love it when hateful left tard @sses get their just desserts. Big smile on my face right now.
What a loser!! The left can’t stand the visual of all those Trump ‘racists’ in boats by the hundreds, volunteering by the thousands, donating by the hundreds of thousands, to help people and critters in a disaster, no matter what their race, religion, age or national origin are. It sure kills their hateful narrative.
Didn’t a liberal once justify mocking Alabama tornado victims by saying “Where’s your God now?” or something similar?

Stupid is as stupid does.
In this case both apply.
People posting here that California should drop into the sea are no better than this guy.
He wasn’t visiting in TX, he was a “visiting” (not permanent) professor in Tampa. Of course he insulted FL as well, since they voted for Trump also.
Where was he visiting from? He should be fired from there, too.
Yes, I know. But if you go on a temporary assignment to a new employer, do you do something really stupid to make your temporary host look bad? Of course not.
Seems like it is always the professors of useless subjects.
The other “professors” covering his classes are more than likely cut from the same cloth so the leftist indoctrination will continue.
He should be fired at.
“Texas doing itself proud! Watching Fox and all the wonderful Texans coming out and rescuing people. Hard to be cynical when you see Americans like this”
That’s the point. All of us Americans get along just fine in day to day life. Its these filthy democrats stirring up fake shit like racism, Nazis, white supremists, etc. All straw men.
The guy was never a professor, an associate professor or even an assistant professor.
Excellent post.
<If he is visiting from another university I am sure he still has a job there.
He could well be a relatively new PhD and this is his job. A lot of departments, especially in the humanities and social sciences, get by on the cheap by hiring a new PhD for 1-3 years as visiting. They don’t have to commit to a tenure line, which can mean million or more over a lifetime of teaching. Sociology is very competitive - lots of PhDs, not so many jobs. People are lucky to get a visiting gig, other wise they wouldn’t have a job at all.
I was faculty at a Big 10 school. My friends are faculty. Thankfully, we didn’t go into the humanities and have to do visiting gigs.
Wow, leftists are mean-spirited.
What is wrong with these people? No humanity or kindness towards one's fellow man or neighbors???
You voted for Trump? You deserve to have a lifetime of memories washed away and live in some convention center. /s
Yes!
Amen!
