I'm surprised that no one mentioned or created a thread on this topic. An Indiana professor had public remarks regarding race, women and anti LGBT. Their is a demand towards the public to have the professor to be fired for his views. However the university of Indiana defends the professor's right to free speech. I wonder if the professor is tenured which makes it extremely difficult to fire. A professor for wrong think views.
A tenured professor should not be subject to firing just for his political views imo.
And I lean left.
Like wise. It reminds me of the time when thier was an uproar from both the left and the right to have a professor fired for her hateful remarks towards the late Barbara Bush.
He was spreading these views via social media. It might be different if he was using his classroom as a platform for them. But if you can be fired for what you post on social media that is unrelated to your job, then we are in trouble.

This is what the sjw wants to do. Like wise for conservatives too.
These are unattractive opinions (although I do agree with the one in which he says a woman who sleeps with 100 men a year is a ****), but that's all they are. When that CCNY professor told his students that Jews were injecting black babies with AIDS, he wasn't even fired for that - and that was much worse.
What this professor did falls under first amendment rights.
Just on the three examples in the article the only one I'd take issue with is his stance on homosexuality. I don't think that gay teachers are any more likely to prey on their students than straight teachers. Particularly by high school it's often the students who are initiating or at least receptive to sexual advances. Of course, it's up to the teacher to be the adult in the equation but that would give the straight teachers are more receptive audience than the gay ones as most people are straight. On the other hand somewhere like Indiana there's more stigma against being gay so a gay teacher may have a more vulnerable population. But really I doubt there's much difference.
The other thing about sluts or affirmative action are pretty common sense. Of course we're in enlightened society supposed to pretend they don't exist but it's still common sense. We treat sluts differently based on gender, just the way it is. Perhaps we shouldn't but acknowledging the fact that we do is the first step towards not doing it even if you don't think we should treat female sluts and male sluts differently.
Totalitarian twits. Let people say what they want to say. Get the F over it.
To SJWs: You aren't special. No one cares what you think of someone elses opinion.
