“Radical elements of the political left in this country have shown themselves willing to celebrate and justify political violence.”

“The ACLU can cry ‘First Amendment’ all they want, but this isn’t about silencing ideas, it’s about protecting students from a professor who openly dehumanizes people he disagrees with,” she said. “Freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom from consequences.”
“Clemson was right to fire him,” Cromer added. “If you excuse violence against those you disagree with, you have no business shaping the minds of students.”
W0uld Cromer agree this applies to both sides, no matter who you are?
This Joshua Kendrick guy is a clown. Look at that headshot. GOOBER! Where have you been the last 10-15 years? The left has weaponized doxxing and getting people canceled/fired for years. Shoe is now on the other foot and soy boys like you are crying. Reap what you sow my friend. And this coming from someone who knows Kirk was a grifter and his money came from… let’s just say… the usual suspects. I think it’s so funny y’all are whining and Hilary Clinton is claiming States’ Rights. Of all people. Lol. Will y’all please all move to the Pacific Northwest and secede already? We tried to back in Dec. of 1860 – peacefully – but y’all Marxists wouldn’t let us. Youre hero stinkin’ Lincoln was a Karl Marx mark just like you. You’re a big goober! Waaaah waaaah.
Thank you for calling him out. He’s soooo tiresome, incorrect and frankly annoying in his opinion (always negative) about everything.
He appears to suffer from the Dunning-Kruger effect.
Not sure this counts as getting called out, but I am curious – what about my comment on this article touched such a nerve with you two?
He’s a far left liberal trial attorney, what do you expect
You suck Trump’s dick for a living, what do you expect?
So Lincoln was a Karl Marx mark? Actually as well documented in the recent book ‘citizen Marx’, Karl Marx was a Republican in the true meaning of the word. But such subtle distinctions can’t be understood by people for whom politics is intellectual cockfighting.
Love how the whiny people on this site always comment about people not posting with their real name, and then someone who posts with a name and picture just gets picked on. Same whiners never address the content of these comments either.
In regards to Joshua, unfortunately hypocrisy is one of the many calling cards of fascists. They expect civility from the left (or really anyone who disagrees with them) but openly trample civility in their own rhetoric. Just listen to anything Trump says about lefties or Democrats. Just listen to what Fox News hosts have to say about the homeless.
A lot of the people who were listed on the website “Charlie’s Murderers” actually left reasonable comments. That’s why I’m willing to give any of the people fired the benefit of the doubt. Let them sue, let a court of law determine if what they said really warranted termination. Coincidentally, let all the people on “Charlie’s Murderers” sue for defamation.
I looked that up and I think I suffer from dunning-kruger disease!
“They don’t care about the civil liberties of anyone to the right of Antifa” Does this guy have any self awareness to even realize that Antifa is short for “Anti Fascist” and what being to the right of someone who is anti fascist would imply?
Antifa is a communist and neo-anarchist group that acts as the shock troops/brown shirts for the political movement. They trace their roots back to the early 1930s communist movement in Germany, and – oddly enough- their parent political party sided with the fascist Nazis prior to the burning of the Reichstag, thinking it was better to side with them than a more moderate, Christian socialist party. The notion of being explicitly “anti-fascist” is actually a publicity ruse that arose in the early 1950s – on the advice from the political doctrine arms of the USSR as means to deflect public criticism of communism, i.e., just call your opponents fascists, because it sounds bad and most people don’t really know what it truly is – and you couldn’t get away with calling someone a Nazi back in those days because people did understand what that was. The ruse just carried on from there.
If Trump and his MAGA Cult don’t want to be called Nazis and Fascists, they need to stop quoting Nazis in their speeches and acting like Nazis in their treatment of both American citizens and undocumented immigrants.
I am not sure how you can be both a communist and an anarchist, but I am sure Cult Trump will find a way. The rantings of their leader is frequently incoherent enough to embrace anything, as long as it comes back to “I hate the same people you do, so trust me.” Hitler had pretty much the same argument.
Others postulate that what we know as Antifa here in the US is more related to the former Anti-Racist Action (ARA) as the precursor. Your claim that they are a direct offshoot from the Germany Antifa of the Nazi era is simply not supported by the facts. Also, the right seems to have adopted a “call everyone a socialist or communist” since most can’t even tell you what the difference is between the two or even really define the two except to say they are bad. The ruse continues.
While I am likely at odds with Bregy on a lot of things (such as man-made climate change), he still has a right to his opinions and to express them. “Rights denied to one is rights denied to all.”
Likewise, I mourn for the rights stolen from First Responders in 2020 over comments they made about protesters who would block a fire truck or ambulance on its way to a call which got them fired. This was equally wrong.
I hope Bregy gets an acceptable settlement or outcome. Did ACLU try to help those Midlands area first responders who were fired in 2020? If so, good! If not, it exposes severe hypocrisy with ACLU and whose freedom of speech is or is not important in their world.
In September of 2012, the ACLU filed a federal lawsuit against the City of Cape Girardeau on behalf of the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan (TAK). TAK members had planned to place handbills on the windshields of parked cars on Sept. 28, until they discovered this is considered a crime by the City of Cape Girardeau. The ACLU took their case. In defense of their actions, they stated
“Our clients describe themselves as “a White Patriotic Christian organization’ that ‘believes in the preservation of the White race and the United States Constitution as it was originally written. ’They’ve found that distributing leaflets is an effective way to recruit new members.
Defending the rights of groups that the government tries to censor because of their viewpoints is at the heart of what the First Amendment and the ACLU stand for, even when the viewpoints are not popular. If we don’t protect the free speech rights of all, we risk having the government arbitrarily decide what is, or is not, acceptable speech.”
The ACLU is defended the right of the white nationalists, neo-Nazis, and Ku Klux Klan members who protested in Charlottesville, Virginia, at Emancipation Park at the site of a controversial statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee that is scheduled to be torn down. The city of Charlottesville had tried to revoke the protest permit of one of the rally organizers, Jason Kessler. But the ACLU came to his legal defense, arguing in court that the move was trying to restrict his free speech unlawfully.
These are not the first times, and it won’t be the last time the ACLU represented loathsome people in defense of our Constitutional rights. While they cannot take every case, they are not hypocrites.
Attorneys for the American Communist Liberties Union want to have their law law licenses revoked.
Their pleadings are a joke. An employer can basically fire someone just because they do not like them. I call this frivolous suit a SLAP. Punish these radical lawyers at the ACLU
You might want to get a refund on your JD there, buddy. That rule only applies to private employers and employees who do not have a contract. It was designed to allow Textile companies and the like to fire employees who wanted to unionize. College professors, like many public employees, have a contract. Further, Clemson is a arm of the State, not a private company. It is not illegal for private companies to stifle the free speech of their employees. The rule is not the same for an arm of the state.
Your assertions make me laugh. Try studying Corpus Juris Secundum.
How many crooked lying lawyers have gone to prison? The closest thing you are to a land shark is a jailhouse one Now go F yourself some more before Federal Agents slap cuffs on you.
Suck Trump’s dick harder, MAGA Fag.
Suck Trump’s dick harder, MAGA Fag.
Tom. Why are you so obsessed with giving another man suction?
