Good!!!2 more Clemson faculty members 'dismissed' over social posts about Charlie Kirk death
Clemson University said Tuesday that it has dismissed two faculty members after they made inappropriate social media posts after Charlie Kirk's assassination.
why is this hard for libs to understand?
each of these people had and still has the right to free speech. Why are you sad?
Because she has the president's ear and due to that, she helped gut the NSA of our most competent, experienced career professionals, which makes us less safe. Why is it hard for magas to understand that's a bad thing?
What the hell are you talking about? Neal Collins is an attorney and a State Representative. He is not an educator and never celebrated Charlie Kirk’s assassination. I think you have confused him for someone else.
I just went back and reread. I apologize. You are correct. I did confuse him for the others.
where do you draw the line on what can be said without consequence, genuinely curious? I agree to the extent that you should be able to voice an opinion, even one that is considered out of step….
But at some point, if you work for someone, particularly someone who is in the business of teaching, you have to be held to some standard.
Celebrating heinous violence and/or calling for more has to be a zero tolerance red line, does it not?
When the democrats encouraged their supporters to take over the Rayburn Office building of the House and occupy it, that is precisely what they called it….. a protest.
When rioters luted and burned large sections of cities all over the country in the wake of the George Floyd death it was called a protest.
That is a good question, where is the threshold? For me it is one of those things where you kind of know it when you see it….. Totally subjective which isn’t good.
While I am sure your last paragraph is true for some people, you really missed the mark by painting with such a broad brush.… I did not celebrate the folks in MN being killed, my first thought was it was unhinged maniac that perpetrated the act and I am fully aware those types exist in all parties.
We are missing CIVIL in the civil discourse that used to be far more prevalent in society. Too many people go from 0 to 60 in a heartbeat and I am unsure if we can put the genie back in the bottle.
Both of your examples are poor ones. Free Speech is sacrosanct and should not be policed by government (the police). See the UK…. If you say something negative about getting an abortion in the UK you can be arrested and jailed.
None of the vile things being said about Charlie Kirk are going to land anyone in jail. However, it doesn’t mean that people can’t think you are a disgusting human being or choose to no longer be associated with you because of what you say.
Any employer (government sponsored or not) should have the right to terminate their involvement with you if you cross a certain line and Clemson determined that several professors did.
There are things I think, that I don’t say in the moment and I am glad I had enough restraint to keep quiet, b/c with time and reflection the initial surge of anger, joy or what ever emotion lessens and I see the error of my ways.
Too many people are way too quick to type and hit post.
It's not the element of employment that is ironic. It's the nonstop whining about CaNcEL cULtUrE from the right for a decade now about anything they regard as criticism while simultaneously celebrating a guy who claimed to be a free speech warrior (not exactly true of course with his depraved professor watchlist he used to sic his minions on) and constantly trying to cancel the dumbest **** possible like Bud Light and Cracker Barrel.
Well there's not democrats here, there's me and you. Parts of the George Floyd protests certainly turned into riots. I'm not familiar with what you're referring to with the Rayburn building. What happened there? In what ways was in not peaceful?
January 6th was an insurrection aimed at overturning the results of a democratic election. There were insurrectionists there with restraints to kidnap policiticans. There was intention to hang Mike Pence. Sure, I guess it still technically fits under "protest" in the same sort of way 9/11 did but I don't think that's the best word to describe it.
