The intolerance of the left has grown so much that its adherents cannot even bear to hear dissenting opinions without feeling “threatened”.
Don’t believe it? Look to Texas Christian University. You would think a college with “Christian” in the title would at the very least be willing to hear conservative opinions, but the shocking actions of a professor there show nothing could be further from the truth.
Trying to prompt discussion about feminism amongst her students, Dr. Melita Garza instructed her class to write about the subject in a blog post that she would then read and grade. One student, a disabled military veteran, took the assignment seriously and offered his take on feminism.
Pointing to research by the American Enterprise Institute, the student argued that not only are women relatively well-off but that they also are “the freest and most liberated in human history”, a wholly uncontroversial claim when one looks at the barbaric treatment of women in times past and compares it to the freedom and respect accorded to females today.
It must have been controversial to Dr. Garza though, because she proceeded to give the student an “F” and called for security to forcibly remove him from class.

this is outragous
Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views, but then are shocked and offended to discover that there are other views.

The first question is why did he get an “f” on his paper?
James Kelly, some folks believe that speaking the truth or speaking one’s mind is disruptive. Anything that does not follow the party line is deemed by some to be disruptive.
Almost all your college professors are left wing nut jobs! That is because the hippies of the 60’s became teachers in our colleges and universities and now you see what we have!
No, information? Have you pulled your head out lately to see the light of day!
Fair question. They didn’t link to his blog post or provide any quotes. They may not have had the clearance to anyway
Understood, Mr. Williams. But my point, again, is that we were not in the classroom, and do not know exactly what was said or done. I will not take a side until I have more info, unlike some of the people in this thread.
Jerk!
