A former college professor was arrested on Tuesday on suspicion of setting fires near the massive Dixie Fire in Northern California, which has already destroyed over 500 homes and is nearing 500,000 acres, the second-worst in California history.

Gary Stephen Maynard, 47, is believed to have worked at a number of colleges in California, including Santa Clara University and Sonoma State University, where a Dr. Gary Maynard is listed as a lecturer in criminal justice studies specializing in criminal justice, cults and deviant behavior.

Liberalism is indeed a mental disorder!

Well, he does specialize in the study of deviant behavior.

It seems a paradox, but "academics" are often the most ideological, narrow-minded, and stupid people you will ever meet.

[Tell It Right]

A liberal judge will let him go to support his “free speech” after the “professor” says he started the fires by burning American flags.

your tax dollars at work.

[rxsid]

About as ironic as it can get.

[rxsid]

Indeed. And of course, the fire has been blamed on "global warming" or "climate change" by all the usual suspects.

I wonder if they will now blame this (leftist) guy for being responsible for the area climate change?

It’s free speech.

Yes, and since he's a "professor" it means he is "sophisticated" and can't be blamed for anything, like the "sophisticated" people at the birthday party that Egomaniac Barak Obama threw for himself.

Chain him to a tree after his kneecaps are shattered with a ball peen hammer.

Let nature do the rest.

Check his social media, I’ll wager he’s a radical leftist.

These massive fires....Cause of or result of Climate Change and/or global warming.

Just imagine what is spewing into the atmosphere...and it's not man made.

[shotgun]

Sounds like he’s trying to get a job in the Biden administration. I mean if they can appoint an avowed tree spiker from Earth First then why not this whack job?

After all, they cited the fire to add to the climate change argument. That should be worth some brownie points.

[Sacajaweau]

Time to revive the CCC camps. Get these forests under control. Might even involve “lumbering”...imagine that....making use of a renewable source for “goods” instead of burning it.

“Well, he does specialize in the study of deviant behavior.”

Takes one to know one.

[BenLurkin]

Defund academia.

[lgjhn23]

LMAO.... “Professor”, “fire”.....what could possibly go wrong??? /s

[E. Pluribus Unum]

My theory is the guy buried himself in student loan debt for a PhD degree that qualified him for nothing-jobs and it slowly drove him insane.

This is a very common scenario these days.

The BLM/Antifa goons are mainly government school teachers, social workers and attorneys with the same back-story.

[rbg81]

Well, he does specialize in the study of deviant behavior.

His defense will be that he was doing “research”.
