Other thread was anchored. Since this is being covered more widely, seems like a new thread is warranted. Admins I apologize if this is not allowed.

Fox

quote:

A Louisiana professor called on her colleagues to keep a list of students who engage in "hate speech" and "drop" them from classes at the public university after George Floyd's death, Campus Reform reports.

Louisiana State University Assistant Professor of Biological Sciences Alyssa Johnson made the comments after the school's official Twitter responded to those calls, saying, "we are subject to constitutional limitation on our ability to take action in response to free speech."

Another professor in Johnson's department, LSU Associate Professor William T. Doerrler, responded to another deleted tweet, writing: “Thank you!! If he enrolls in my class I’ll drop him too!”


Which one of you sent the story in to Fox News?

I think it’s the only major outlet to pick the story up.

I ended up on TV walking in to class in the clip Fox News showed when my astronomy professor had a global warming meltdown in 2010.

And no one will protest this. People on the "right" need to start hurting those on the left for any true change to come. Scare them back into submission.

I'm so tolerant that I'll kill anyone who isn't tolerant of tolerance.

Hate speech is what, anything she disagrees with?

I took her for genetics a couple of years ago. Incredibly boring and says "um" a lot. Tests were easy though.

I'm assuming she doesn't have tenure because of her rank (assistant professor). She may not have a job for long.

Woke State University isn't getting rid of her. Hell, they probably won't even reprimand her

... but she then deleted her Twitter. Sounds like it didn’t really work out
