Hey, what if one of your tenured “professors” tweets the NWord as a “ private citizen”.?

Would the results be the same?

If Roger Stone lost a job over saying that Barbara Bush was a “...mean-spirited, vindictive drunk. She is ascending into hell right now. She’s not going to heaven. She was a bad person.”

This so-called professor should lose her job also.

WHICH TYPES OF SPEECH ARE NOT PROTECTED BY THE FIRST AMENDMENT?

Although different scholars view unprotected speech in different ways, there are basically nine categories:

Obscenity
Fighting words
Defamation (including libel and slander)
Child pornography
Perjury
Blackmail
Incitement to imminent lawless action
True threats
Solicitations to commit crimes
Some experts also would add treason, if committed verbally, to that list.
Plagiarism of copyrighted material is also not protected.

And a Law Enforcement officer in Alabama was fired for social media posts criticizing Michelle Obama and BLM. These posts were made from his personal Facebook account. Double standard?

Perhaps we should let them know our thoughts on their decision?

[[so her remarks didn’t violate any California State University or campus policies,]]

Would that be said if a professor said the same hateful crap about a gay person?

Naturally. The college agrees with her hate. The college would gladly bring about the demise of any Republican, or other normal person.
