That is mind-blowing. I see the reasoning here, but I'm not sure allowing *them* to push us farther underground is the answer.
My kids are all grown, but I do have a son with an MBA from an online university. He's still taking even more online college courses (and he's the one who hated school the most...go figure). He's in another state, so I don't get to talk to him as much as I'd like, but I plan to ask him if he has experienced this same type of prejudice in his internet schooling.
I want to add that my son (in southern CA) is very pro-2A. I don’t know what he looks at on the internet, but this is interesting. He also works for the Veteran’s Administration at this time.
