"Matt Barrow"

Firing tenured professors because they say something offensive to many
people is a really bad idea.

True enough, but what this mental furrball is spewing is not merely
offensive, it's nownright demented. This is not the type of pereson we
need,
of any persuasion, teaching our youth.

There are lots of loony professors. So what.

Unfortunately, in a politically charged
atmosphere, more and more academics are being threatened with censure.

quick look back at history shows where this leads. If the guy's nuts,
he'll eventually be ignored by everyone except other nuts.

And in the meantime he's polluting our youth minds. That's NOT the purpose
of education, especially tax funded "education".

Yes. Don't trust listeners to make up their own minds.

This sort of thing
happens in the physical sciences as well.
