(AP Photo/Carolyn Kaster) A professor may be in a mess.
In my estimation, there are two rightful responses to the lion’s share of others’ opinions.
An illustration: 1. “I think _________.” “Okay.” 2. “I think _________.” “So?” But culture currently operates alternately. Words — if you haven’t heard — are violence.
Apropos of that, University of Florida Professor Greg Pingree has a potential problem.
As relayed by The College Fix , last semester, he helmed a course called Law, Religion, and Sexual Identity.
During a private Zoom conference, a student allegedly asked, “It isn’t transphobic to think trans women are not women, right?”
“It’s not transphobic. It’s just your view. And I welcome you to express that in my class,” Greg reportedly replied.

Before markets collapse, the smart play is to move wealth or retirement to precious metals. Contact Genesis Gold now to make it happen smoothly with no hassles from a group driven by fellowship.
In an evident homage to Evel Knieval, he sent a copy of the convo to the whole class.
The jump: As it turns out, someone submitted a complaint to the school’s “RESPECT Team.”From the official website : The purpose of the RESPECT Team is to provide impacted parties of bias incidents opportunities to be heard and supported; understand and respond to situations that affect the University of Florida; educate and inform the community; and create awareness of ignorance and intolerance. Might only ignorance cause offense?Either way, the RESPECT Team “provides services to witness(es), bystander(s), targeted individual(s), offender(s), or a member(s) of the community.”But it doesn’t judge: The RESPECT Team does not investigate, adjudicate, or take the place of other UF processes or services. Rather, the RESPECT team complements and works with campus entities to connect impacted parties and communities with appropriate support and resources. The idea for such a group is nothing new.As I covered in April, a University of Virginia student attending a public discussion questioned the difference between “microaggressions” and just being rude.A subsequent chain of events saw him escorted off campus and ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation.In response to his lawsuit, the school commented thusly: Offensive student speech does not enjoy First Amendment protection. Will the University of Florida take a similar stance toward instructors?The college obviously wants to obliterate “bias.”More from the Fix : The (transgender) incident was one […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
