I understand the schaden-freude. We, as Conservatives are under attack in the MSM all the time, so it feels good to see someone feel a little heat for it. But...
Do they have a morals clause in his employment contract?
I am wondering because while what he wrote was nasty, ignorant, and mean spirited, I do not think it was illegal.
We have free speech (or used to) in this country. What is he being fired for? Perhaps conduct unbecoming a professor?
A good case can be made for that.
As to the actual tweet, I think I see as bad on freerepublic every couple of days, directed toward “progressives”.
He should be fired, he has free speech but the employer also has the freedom to end the employment. He basically said some of his own students should be murdered.
If he had said Obama’s kids should be murdered do you think he would only be suspended?
He's not being arrested.
