Journalism prof placed on leave

Quote:
..."It is in the best interests and peace of mind of our students that I remove myself from the situation and let cooler heads prevail," Guth wrote. "I know what I meant. Unfortunately, this is a topic that generates more heat than light."

He may have gotten more than he bargained for, however...

... Kansas Senate Majority Leader Terry Bruce, R-Hutchinson, said Thursday he was "appalled" by the tweet and called for the university to remove from Guth from the faculty.

"Wishing death and damnation upon parents and their children is reprehensible and not befitting an employee of such a distinguished university," Bruce said in an emailed statement.

California Dem apologies for death rant

Quote:
“I'm being attacked on Twitter for wishing one of Ted Cruz's pubic lice to experience the pain her boss is inflicting on Americans,” Brauer tweeted before apologizing. “Yes, your party takes bread from the mouths of starving children and medicine from the sick, and I'm the problem. Got it."

He finally relented by mid-afternoon by posting: “I am truly sorry for my tweet. I was very upset and lashed out. Your kids are not fair game either. My apologies."

Carpenter tweeted: "Thank you. I appreciate it."

I posted this to reflect both the Left and the Right MSM ... in all fairness of course.

People just need to settle down me thinks
