That professor is lucky he lives in a country that allows him to express his opinions and act like an *******.


Ack-Ack

This professor has a first amendment right to free speech, so those of us who disagree with him have to keep our mouths shut.

Tell this Jack off what you think!! Here's his e-mail, and that of the administration.

Dear Professor-
 
I recently read an article concerning the statements you made at the Newsday Teach-in regarding our Military Forces in Iraq. Though I repect your right to speak your mind, I feel your comments were inflammatory, and inappropriate.
 
Rest assured, I will be excercising my freedom of expression, by making certain my daughter does NOT attend Columbia next year. I would prefer her get a good education in a different institution without the influence of your disgusting rhetoric.
 
Remember, professor, the only reason you have the right to speak your mind is because men and women fought for you to have it. I think intellectuals like you, in your ivory towers need to remember that.
 
You are an insult to active duty, and retired military service men and women the world over.
 
Please be assured, I will be sending this correspondance to the administration of your institution.
 
With great disdain,
Joseph L. Pizzo

we had a pretty high K/D ratio there, and i think it was recent enough not to forget the mistakes made (ie aromor support)

This is another example of the exercise of free speech by one who is ill equiped to use it in a wise manner. He can say those things in a public forum, ie. a gathering of people, but he should be prepared for the backlash of his ill intentioned remarks. The really sad thing is his ability to be in the educational process which gives him an "air" of legitimacy to his students who have not been taught to think for themselves.

I will be out of the office until March 22, 2003.
Your mail will be read and answered when I return.

Best,

Jonathan R. Cole


Hummm.... I recieved this upon writing this indiv.

Actually its free speech that allows this type of stupidity to see the light of day. It can then be properly "smacked down" for the bs that it is.

I am not to concerned about some one saying such degenerate bs. I am a bit surprised that any one could believe that. Werent like 3000 somalis killed for 18 us?

The US surely wasnt beaten they just pulled out and I cant think anyone can doudt that even with that light force they could have killed thousands more.

one of the beautiful things about free speach is it allows the a-holes to identify themselves for you
