Vanderbilt Professor Take On Baltimore Riots

I think the nutty professor should get back to making flubber.

Those calling for his job only further prove his point.
As far as the actual message, I see nothing wrong with his opinion.

You really think white people act "routinely to harm, demean and damage black and brown people"?
Good point...it was no doubt a white department head who hired this guy in the first place. Black privilege you think?
For some reason I can't bring myself to feel responsible for the Baltimore riots. Nothing like making a racist argument against racism to make sure any valid points you might have can't be heard professor. I guess I'm a bad little liberal.
There are "liberals" and there are "radical liberals"...somehow you strike me as the former not the latter.
His 'opinion' looks like it could incite more violence to me.
Reverse it......I'm a white prof at a university, I broadly generalize about how black stupidity is the root of all the problems in the USA, whites should start recording black stupidity everywhere they encounter it - nothing wrong with that message? Should my employer protect me from spouting off and instigating problems?
If it was done as an individual and not as a spokesman of the University I don't think you should be fired. You have every right to pen an editorial as your opinion.
If we spent our time recording stupidity no one would have time for the worthy pursuits...like golf and fishing.
I don't really care if he's fired and I'm not going to shout from the rooftops that he be fired, but damn am I sick and tired of people who are doing absolutely nothing but stoking the coals in situations like this - Fox news does it, MSNBC does it, this idiot does it.....just maddening
Like a few of the others above, I am having a hard time identifying the controversy in what he said. I think it is basically true as far as it goes ... which is a kind of surface-scratching when it comes to the topic at hand. There are so many conflicting dynamics surrounding this issue.
CORRECT.
And we as a society have every right to form an opinion that this man has made a stupid statement. He should and will suffer consequences from those who don't like the opinion. Those could range from loss of credibility, loss of earnings power, and perhaps all the way to loss of job.
You are perhaps smart enough to flip this around and think about the outrage if the races were reversed? I say perhaps, because, well, I just don't know...
Ok, My bad for misunderstanding what was being exchanged. I just get sick about the double-standards in this country, that's all.
The prof is entitled to his opinion unless he means to represent the college/U he works for.
Without an admission that blacks/minorities need to take at least some ownership and responsibility for their plight and future, the editorial is just another vehicle to vent frustration without offering any helpful solutions.
