Illegal immigrants can hurt US economy, professor argues, prompting calls for his firing

A college professor in Georgia is drawing criticism for his online comments about illegal immigrants, including his contention that people in the U.S. illegally can be a drain on the nation’s economy.

“If you are going to reward illegal immigrants, there will be more illegal immigrants,” Fang Zhou, an associate professor of history at Georgia Gwinnett College near Atlanta, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Zhou says he welcomes the criticism, including from those who say he should lose his job, according to the report.

“I am against political correctness,” Zhou, a legal immigrant from China, told the newspaper.

“I speak truth to power in class and my students learn about the financial drain of illegal immigration on the economy and the high crime rates of illegal immigrants.

“My students are ‘woke’ and are overwhelmingly against illegal immigration after taking my class,” he added.

Only sociopaths/psychopaths/Alinskyites would refuse to acknowledge the difference between legal immigration/immigrants and illegal invasion/aliens.

So much for the free exploration of ideas and the pursuit of the evidence wherever it leads.

Which is why universities will be replaced by the internet sooner or later.

The Prof should tell the faculty:

"It is RACIST to impose SLAVE WAGES on LEGAL Immigrants and minorities by flooding the labor market with CHEAP, ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT LABOR."

Wow.

Good job, professor. Mr. Fang? Zhou sounds like a family name, so maybe he has been in the US long enough he switched it around.

Good stand to take. For real.

He should give Fs to the libtards in his class since they like failing conservative students.

[Truth is the new “hate speech.”]

That is correct. It’s always accompanied by those who wish to marginalize or discard the Bible. Oddly enough, for the same reason.

Welcome to 1984.

SKIP CLASS? YOU WON'T PASS. GROUP PROJECTS

Very knowledgable about his Subject. Go to class every day even if you are dying, and don't EVER be late for even 1 min. He will doc your final grades heavily for tardiness and absences.

RESPECTED PARTICIPATION MATTERS AMAZING LECTURES

This class is very easy, the professor is even more easier. He requires 3 presentation (talk abt countries in 5 mins) and also 3 papers for each. The only he cares is about you enjoy fun and understanding materials. The study guide he gave is exactly on the exam. If you are looking an easy A then you must took him. Trust me! you wont regret!

Professor Zhou, Hands down up or whatever is the best professor ever. I was a person who hated history with a passion. He made class lectures very entertaining. I never missed a day of class only because his enthusiasm for teaching! BEST BEST BEST PROFESSOR AT GGC. Don't buy the textbook though, just pay attention class. Exams are the study guide

PARTICIPATION MATTERS

Do not take him if youre not good at short answers in the test because his test isnt multiple choice, which is not good at all. He have 4 tests and 3 presentations. The test is 15% and the presentation is 10% of your grade. In his class, you just have to write down notes from the board because his notes will be on the test.
