Get Out of My Class and Leave America

Hat tip Francis Marion

Guest Post by Mike Adams 

Author’s Note: The following column is comprised of excerpts taken from my first lectures on the first day of classes this semester at UNC-Wilmington. I reproduced these remarks with the hope that they would be useful to other professors teaching at public universities all across America. Feel free to use this material if you already have tenure.

Welcome back to class, students! I am Mike Adams your criminology professor here at UNC-Wilmington. Before we get started with the course I need to address an issue that is causing problems here at UNCW and in higher education all across the country. I am talking about the growing minority of students who believe they have a right to be free from being offended. If we don’t reverse this dangerous trend in our society there will soon be a majority of young people who will need to walk around in plastic bubble suits to protect them in the event that they come into contact with a dissenting viewpoint. That mentality is unworthy of an American. It’s hardly worthy of a Frenchman.

Let’s get something straight right now. You have no right to be unoffended. You have a right to be offended with regularity. It is the price you pay for living in a free society. If you don’t understand that you are confused and dangerously so. In part, I blame your high school teachers for failing to teach you basic civics before you got your diploma. Most of you went to the public high schools, which are a disaster. Don’t tell me that offended you. I went to a public high school.

Of course, your high school might not be the problem. It is entirely possible that the main reason why so many of you are confused about free speech is that piece of paper hanging on the wall right over there. Please turn your attention to that ridiculous document that is framed and hanging by the door. In fact, take a few minutes to read it before you leave class today. It is our campus speech code. It specifically says that there is a requirement that everyone must only engage in discourse that is “respectful.” That assertion is as ludicrous as it is illegal. I plan to have that thing ripped down from every classroom on campus before I retire.

One of my grandfathers served in World War I. My step-grandfather served in World War II. My sixth great grandfather enlisted in the American Revolution when he was only thirteen. These great men did not fight so we could simply relinquish our rights to the enemy within our borders. That enemy is the Marxists who run our public universities. If you are a Marxist and I just offended you, well, that’s tough. I guess they don’t make communists like they used to.

Of course, this ban on “disrespectful” speech is really only illusory. The university that created these speech restrictions then turns around and sponsors plays like The Vagina Monologues, which is loaded with profanity including the c-word – the most offensive and disrespectful word a person could ever possibly apply to a woman. It is pure, unadulterated hypocrisy.

So, the university position can be roughly summarized as follows: Public university administrators have a First Amendment right to use disrespectful profanity but public university students do not. This turns the First Amendment on its head. The university has its free speech analysis completely backwards. And that’s why they need to be sued.

Before we go, let us take a few minutes to look at the last page of your syllabus where I explain the importance of coming to class on time, turning off your cell phone, and refraining from talking during lectures. In that section, I explain that each of you has God-given talents and that your Creator endowed you with a purpose in life that is thwarted when you develop these bad habits.

Unbelievably, a student once complained to the Department chairwoman that my mention of God and a Creator was a violation of Separation of Church and State. Let me be as clear as I possibly can: If any of you actually think that my decision to paraphrase the Declaration of Independence in the course syllabus is unconstitutional then you suffer from severe intellectual hernia.

Indeed, it takes hard work to become stupid enough to think the Declaration of Independence is unconstitutional. If you agree with the student who made that complaint then you are probably just an anti-religious zealot. Therefore, I am going to ask you to do exactly three things and do them in the exact order that I specify.

First, get out of my class. You can fill out the drop slip over at James Hall. Just tell them you don’t believe in true diversity and you want to be surrounded by people who agree with your twisted interpretation of the Constitution simply because they are the kind of people who will protect you from having your beliefs challenged or your feelings hurt.

Second, withdraw from the university. If you find that you are actually relieved because you will no longer be in a class where your beliefs might be challenged then you aren’t ready for college. Go get a job building houses so you can work with some illegal aliens who will help you gain a better appreciation of what this country has to offer.

Finally, if this doesn’t work then I would simply ask you to get the hell out of the country. The ever-growing thinned-skinned minority you have joined is simply ruining life in this once-great nation. Please move to some place like Cuba where you can enjoy the company of communists and get excellent health care. Just hop on a leaky boat and start paddling your way towards utopia. You will not be missed.

Thank you for your time. I’ll see most of you when classes resume on Monday.

The world is a jungle.

In the jungle the strong survive and multiply and the weak die off.

I think a die off is coming to American in the near future.

Dr Pangloss (UTEP) would take no shit from Chicano activists, “When I teach history, the American flag waves.”

Wouldn’t have done that with the medical students I’ve taught. No need. First, for all the jokes we tell about med students, they’re SMART little weasels or they’d never have been admitted. Second, even the most politically deluded among them begin having their undergraduate idiocies blasted away the moment they start hitting the realities of clinical medicine, where the incompetent who’s skating by on affirmative action is ruthlessly identified as yet another potential “Double-Oh-Seven doctor” (y’know: “licensed to kill”).

Could it be that much different in teaching a criminology course?

Great stuff. I love his comment posted by Admin that men should be dangerous. My life changed for the better the second I made that decision in my early teens.

As an addendum to the above, I am always sunned by how many folks in “polite society” have never encountered a dangerous man, or at least incapable of recognizing one. They are surrounded by non-dangerous men, in general, and lose their natural fear. Hey believe that society will protect them. They are in for a rude awakening. I have unfortunately had to awaken a few in my life.

They believe they can act disrespectfully, and psuedo-violently, and be immune to true violent repercussions. It is insane. For instance, they might call me bad names, and insult my wife, and think that they can do it without bleeding. It is a non-violent society, after all. They are mistaken.

I have had many conversations with my son about this. He has never thrown a punch in anger, and his lips run rampant at times – “I can say anything I want. It is a free country, and violence against someone for speech is not allowed”. Alrighty then. I have warned him he is taking a terrible chance but some things can only be learned via experience.

Tucci – smart weasels are just weasels at the end of the day. I see more and more “smart weasels” who are just barely functional idiots every day.

Not long ago a doctor diagnosed a cyst on my kid’s knee via xray. I pointed out to the moron that what she was calling a cyst was the fucking patella, and told that stupid bitch quack to bring me a real doctor and advised her to leave medicine before she killed someone.

Manifestly not one of *my* former medical students, was she? None of my thumb marks on her throat, right?

It is to be regretted that the quality of professors and preceptors in clinical medicine have declined so as to accommodate the imposition of political correctness in the profession.

Though it pains me to observe this, there may yet be a role for the plaintiff’s bar to legitimately play in tort law applicable to professional incompetence, if only in the sense that timberwolves play a legitimate and necessary role in killing off the lame and the defective in the caribou population.

Tucci – I am sure your students could identify a patella! I love the thumb marks comment. My younger managers always wonder why I squeeze them when they make mistakes. Mistakes are always avoidable, that is why, I tell them. I do not believe in making mistakes.

Lots of managers I trained have told me years later, that I was right to be hard with them. It set them on the right track and helped them beat their competition.

Screw mistakes. “Everyone makes mistakes” is horseshit, and I never accept it.

“Screw mistakes. ‘Everyone makes mistakes’ is horseshit, and I never accept it.”

Well, everyone DOES make mistakes. The lesson to teach your students is to be aware of their propensities for making mistakes, to anticipate them, be aware of them, and be prepared to take corrective action. The premise that perfection is to be expected every time you do something- THAT’S horseshit.

While sons-of-bitches do tend to make the most memorable teachers, I can’t say that I myself learned the most from the guys who were hardest on me, and I never tried to be a hard-ass just for the sake of effectiveness when I got the job of instructing med students and resident physicians.

But give me a resident who misplaces a nasogastric feeding tube and then dumps sixty cc’s of Ensure into an obtunded patient’s lungs at 3:00 o’clock in the morning, and – after I get the victim resuscitated – I’m inclined to find an out-of-the-way corridor and forcibly encourage that stupid, negligent little weasel to seek a career in psychiatry or dermatology.

Or, at the very least, to get the hell off my service.

Llpoh, I give my managers a choice. We can have preventable mistakes, or bonuses at the end of the year, but not both.

I always tell my managers you WILL make mistakes. Fix them when you do – and don’t fucking repeat them. I’ve shown a few people the door over the years for repeat mistakes. Few things piss me off more….

“007 doctors”? You pullin’ my wick? Imagine if my last employer(major airplane manufacturer) turned out “007 pilots”. Sounds like standards pretty much everywhere have been compromised. Don’t get sick!

I think it is because parents want to be their kids buddies/best friends. When I was growing up (and when my kid was little) it was a parents job to hurt their kids feelings once in a while to get them used to living in the real world. It was called discipline and tough love.

Now, everyone is afraid their kid won’t “like” them.

Doctor’s mistakes kill other people (except Ebola, AIDS etc); fighter pilot mistakes can be fatal very quick.

Tucci – mistakes happen. But I do not accept them. I do not buy into the adage that “everyone makes mistakes”. I believe that is used as an excuse to make mistakes.

Ask my employees how many mistakes they can think of that I have made. Of course I make them, but they are rare indeed. In the last twenty five years I can say I have made ONE mistake that cost me money beyond pocket change. ONE. It cost me twenty grand, and I am still pissed by it. My employees have made dozens of individual mistakes that have cost me that amount and more.

Fuck mistakes. Accidents happen. But mistakes should never happen.

I like Star’s system.
