College Professor Suspended and Investigated After Being Reported For Using His Daughter to Make Real and Credible Threats to Kill People

Oh, here was the real and credible threat he posted on Google+:

Intellectual Winter is Coming

Scary, huh? Yeah, that T-shirt is a quote from Daenerys Targaryen from Game of Thrones.

It's a nerd culture t-shirt, in other words. The "fire" she's threatening people with? Yeah, comes from fire-breathing dragons.

But the professor has literally been suspended and is being investigated for this scary death threat.

But one contact — a dean — who was notified automatically via Google that the picture had been posted apparently took it as a threat. In an e-mail, Jim Miller, the college’s executive director for human resources, told Schmidt to meet with him and two other administrators immediately in light of the “threatening e-mail.” …
Schmidt said he met with the administrators, including a security official, in one of their offices and was questioned repeatedly about the picture’s meaning and the popularity of “Game of Thrones.”
Schmidt said Miller asked him to use Google to verify the phrase, which he did, showing approximately 4 million hits. The professor said he asked why the photo had set off such a reaction, and that the security official said that “fire” could be a kind of proxy for “AK-47s.”

Well, in fairness, the type of dragon alluded to is an "Assault Dragon," with extended stomach-magazines for additional literal fire-power.

Plus, "that part that goes down" (i.e., a tail).

It gets worse:

Schmidt believes the school is acting not to protect students from potential threats, but to retaliate against him. A week before being placed on leave, Schmidt filed a grievance against the school because he was passed up for a sabbatical.

Here's how Bergen Community College covers itself in further glory: by doubling down.

[Bergen Community College President Kay] Walter said she did not believe that the college had acted unfairly, especially considering that there were three school shootings nationwide in January, prior to Schmidt’s post.

Well that's not the sort of sub-moronic utterance I associate with community colleges at all.

The professor is suspended, without pay, until he can pass a psych exam showing he is not a threat to the school.

So that's it, then: It's Idiocracy. We are a stupid, stupid people, and like most deeply stupid people, we are increasingly proud of our stupidity.

The greatest offense you can inflict on a stupid, ignorant person is to tell him something he doesn't know, and there's no possible way to avoid this offense, because the list of things he does not know is vast.

And he'll hate you for telling him something he didn't know. And he will mock you for having known this thing, and, if he can get away with it, he will inflict punishment on you. Corporeal punishment, if he's bigger than you, and if he's not bigger than you, which will usually be the case, he will resort to the more cowardly method of punishment favored by the weakling, to wit, social/political/bureaucratic punishment.

All for having made a f***ing moron felt briefly ashamed about not knowing something.

In no case will the proudly ignorant ever just laugh off their moment of revealed ignorance and apologize for the misunderstanding, because the thick-headed do not know the things it's okay not to know. That is, it's okay to not know character quotes from Game of Thrones; it's just a nerd-cult tv show and book series. Who cares if you don't know the quote, or never heard of Khaleesi, Mother of Dragons?

But the stupid know so little they cannot differentiate between those things they should be ashamed of being ignorant of and those that they shouldn't, so, always fighting from the position of a defensive flinch, they feel ashamed about being ignorant of everything, which would be fine, but being stupid, and therefore, in the center of themselves, aggressive and hostile, they lash out at their phantasmal "oppressors" by any means they can.

In related news, civilization itself was a major misstep and that error probably should be corrected as soon as possible.

64 Is this real abject stupidity, or just a fear of a lawsuit? By which I mean, is it possible now that an administrator must necessarily act on everything because in the rare even when something does happen, their career is ruined for "not missing obvious signals that something was wrong."

My guess is that this is just an asshole administrator who's using the latter for cover. I know that we're never supposed to attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity, but I always assume different when dealing with office politics.

71 The stupid are stupid because they refuse to admit they are ignorant. Smart people don't pop out of the womb as all-knowing geniuses. They ask questions, want to know answers. They are curious and are willing to admit they do not know something as long as they can rectify their not knowing. The stupid are also the vain. They refuse to admit weakness, such as ignorance on a given subject. They never ask questions, they never learn, and so they remain ignorant. Stupidity is just a consequence of a peculiar arrogance.

My guess is the administrator was brought this thing by some short-haired fat scrunt who played softball. He looked at it and had no idea what it was so he took her word for it.

By the time he found out what it was it was too late. Everyone knows a stupid liberal will never admit to being wrong or back down on a stupid decision,

Talking about inflation, I had some fun with the check-out girl at the local gas and go this morning. I asked for a pack of cigarettes. She got them. I held a quarter up in my hand, and said, "This is what I used to pay for a pack of cigarettes".

I then handed her 26 more quarters. Probably about a pound of quarters. She was amused and said, "Wow, it really hits you when you put it like that."

106 >>>The stupid are stupid because they refuse to admit they are ignorant. Smart people don't pop out of the womb as all-knowing geniuses. They ask questions, want to know answers. They are curious and are willing to admit they do not know something as long as they can rectify their not knowing. The stupid are also the vain. They refuse to admit weakness, such as ignorance on a given subject. They never ask questions, they never learn, and so they remain ignorant. Stupidity is just a consequence of a peculiar arrogance.

...

true, but it helps if you're borderline smart to start with.

People feel dumb asking questions. Personally, I ask a lot of questions, because I know most of the things I'm asking about are not the things I'm Expected to Already Know. So I don't feel dumb about it.

Most of the time.

Some things, yeah, I'm expected to know but didn't (such as the actual source of the "put away childish things" line -- yeah, that was embarrassing).

But you're generally right, to not ask questions about things you don't know is an ego-move, a protective move.

I have to admit that in the Earth Like Planet thread there was one thing I didn't know (like whether Mars' lack of oxygen is based on its mass, or if it's based on it not having a magnetosphere due to its iron core no longer being molten or revolving or whatever). I could have/should have asked a question there, but I felt dumb about it, so I pretended I didn't see the comment, which I actually did.

188 Several years ago a local school near me went into lockdown because a passing motorist on the interstate saw (at 70+ mph!) a guy walking the fence near the school ground with a long object that looked like a rifle.

Two hours later they went off of lockdown. For a surveyor with a theodolite on a tripod.

And they wonder why gun owners think antis are ridiculous.

212 Well, in fairness, the type of dragon alluded to is an "Assault Dragon,"
with extended stomach-magazines for additional literal fire-power.

So was this a semi-automatic or full-automatic dragon ?

Did the dragon have a fully opposable digit, therefore making it possible to use a hand-grip ?

Was any part of the dragon "foldable" ?

Would the dragon be detectable in a metal scanner ?

People in supervisory or management positions, who know deep down that they are inadequate and incompetent are some of the most vindictive and stupid people on earth. If you've ever worked for someone who is an idiot, you learn that your best bet, when they suggest something stupid at a meeting, is to keep your mouth shut. I knew one woman who would hold a grudge for a year or more. On the flip side, they are very easily manipulated with phony compliments.

I have found that on many lefty blogs, you can be banned for simply posting a link to an earlier posting on the same blog that factually contradicts the current blog posting. Nothing more than that single action.

Doing such things is an indication that you are Not Of The Body.

Good leftists who are Of The Body are expected neither to notice nor to comment upon any internal contradictions in the left's thinking.

especially considering that there were three school shootings nationwide

I wouldn't trust their count of "school shootings". Piers Morgan was blabbing about some high number of school shootings, so I looked it up. The "study" was counting things like gangs shooting at each other at 2am near a school as a school shooting. They also counted things like teachers and students coming onto campus and killing themselves there. It's dishonest because they want you to think these are people coming onto campus during school hours to kill others.

277 Haven't read all the comments here, but I wonder what the reaction would have been if it had been some murderous quote from Che or PolPot or Stalin. Would there have been any reaction at all?

280 Meanwhile back at the Senate, the majority leader makes credible threats almost daily and nobody seems to notice this vile little prick legislator who thinks he's Al Fucking Capone.

281 . . .the security official said that “fire” could be a kind of proxy for “AK-47s.”

So then is Alaska's postal abbreviation.

282 So...the only thing that remains of The Constitution are bits and pieces of the 1st and 2nd Amendment, then.

'Cause government sponsored and paid jack booted thugs are pretty much ignoring the rest of it.

A mall cop reject quote if I ever saw one. Does he have one bullet in his pocket?

284 "Piers Morgan was blabbing about some high number of school shootings, so
I looked it up. The 'study' was counting things like gangs shooting at
each other at 2am near a school as a school shooting."

See also: teenaged criminals shooting one another, or being shot by police, being reported as "gun deaths of innocent children".

The left have been playing that tune for a long time now.

286 I took a summer school class at this moronic Community Collidge, after lying about the text they used in it to the department chair at my college. Truly a school of sub-human retards.

287 I heard that it was actually a "stand your ground," "assault" dragon.

289 The professor should make it up to the college staff by inviting them to his kid's wedding. Easy-peasy.

291 Dad at my son's little league t-ball game the other night had a t-shirt with two nearly life-sized crossed AR-15s and the words IT'S MY RIGHT surrounding them. No one batted an eye.

Can't imagine that going down in, say, the People's Republic of Pugetopolis, where I'm from.

292 Bergen county NJ.
Has some of the priciest towns like Upper Saddle River, Rivervale...
And some of the most hardcore limosine libtards.
Yet they still have Sunday blue laws.
Go figure.

294 "Well, in fairness, the type of dragon alluded to is an "Assault Dragon,"
with extended stomach-magazines for additional literal fire-power."

Ok, that is strong. Well done, Ace.
