A biology professor at Evergreen State College, who was berated by students for refusing to participate in a no-whites day at the Olympia, Washington, school, says he has been forced to hold classes off campus out of fear for his safety. In an appearance on “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” Bret Weinstein said radical students are still in control of campus and have threatened violence if their demands are not met. [see Mr. Weinstein’s appearance on “Tucker” at the bottom of this post] “At this moment, I believe [Evergreen College President George S. Bridges] is answering a set of demands put forward by the protesters, and they have said that if he does not, if he does not accept their demands, that there will be violence,” Mr. Weinstein said Friday on the Fox News program. He added that campus police have been ordered to “stand down.”

The good professor should acquaint himself with ‘CCW’.

The good professor should lawyer up and sue the v*****a off the snowflakes that are threatening him. Take the administration, and the student association to court. Get a restraining order against the student groups.

So whatever happened to just kicking these radical people out of college. Any violence from you and you’re expelled. Simple.

Maybe violence is needed with leftist terrorist skulls being split when they issue threats like this one. Fear needs to go both ways and the leftists loons need to start worrying that they might suffer severe consequences, too.

No no no. Violence is actually freedom of speech for Demoncrats.

“Violence is actually freedom of speech for Demoncrats.”

Okay, then let’s return the favor.

Kick these spoiled brats out of school. Nothing will change until these nasty, entitled brats find out they have to pay a price for acting out

Exactly. Where’s law enforcement in all of this?

And if not there, then why and who’s to blame for it?

DRAIN THAT SWAMP

We need to give these type students something really serious to worry about — send them to Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, etc.

They’re creating silly BS because they don’t have anything to really be concerned with in their useless lives. Cut off their student loans until they’ve done something to earn it. Send their sorry asses to war. And I don’t care if they like it or not.

Time for a Justice Department investigation into “racism on campus”. Cut federal money to the campus for failure to comply. (No student loans approved for their students if you take away their approved status.)

The problem is the police won’t do anything. The local sherriff and/or state police should step in. If need be, the WA state national guard should be there. Arrest anyone making threats. Shoot orders on any acts of student violence

Can’t be done without violating the education golden rule, quotas.

It’s the institution itself that promotes this behavior. My daughter went to communist indoctrination camp (Evergreen State). They call the commons area “Red Square” and their commencement speaker should have had a punch in the nose.

Public institution.

Stop the tax dollars and send in the National Guard.

If the administration had any guts they would call an assembly and burn the transcripts of the offending students. Tell them they are so far outside the bounds of civilized conduct the institution declines to admit any association with them as they obviously are uneducable.

Evergreen isn't far from us, it's the school that hired Mumial Jamal (cop killer) to give graduates their 1990 commencement speech from his cell on death row. They also have a permanent memorial to Saint Pancake (Rachel Corrie) which consists of a dove with its butt impaled on top of a pyramid in a glass display case.
I was on jury duty a while back and during a break, some jurors were going on about how great Evergreen State is, blah blah, until I mentioned a few facts and they decided I was to be shunned. I got over it.
