"An Orange Coast College psychology instructor lamented the election of Donald Trump to her human sexuality class recently, saying “we have been assaulted, it’s an act of terrorism,” according to a video of the comments posted on YouTube earlier this week.
...The video shows the professor saying in part: “… white supremacist and a vice president that is one of the most anti-gay humans in this country. And so we are in for a difficult time but again I do believe that we can get past that. Our nation is divided, we have been assaulted, it’s an act of terrorism. One of the most frightening things for me and most people in my life is that the people creating the assault are among us.”
...“This is what is happens on college campuses,” he said.
The teachers union representing Cox wants to see the College Republicans and the student who took the video punished over the recording, Recalde-Martinez added.
“The union wanted to come after us and specifically that student for having recorded that video.
...“She’s using her power as a teacher who gives grades, with a captive audience, to basically scare and shame students,” Steel told the newspaper.
“It’s alarming. It’s scare-mongering. It’s irrational. It’s a rant. And it doesn’t belong in the classroom.”
The student who videotaped the instructor, Steel added, was “well within his or her First Amendment rights,” the Register reports.
