[Phys-L] Re: FL stamps out dictator professors

["Strickert, Rick" <rstrickert@SIGNATURESCIENCE.COM>]

I had written: "There are also no statements in the proposed bill to
"stamp out dictator professors" or for students, teachers, and school
administrators to sue various combinations of each other."

Bernard Cleyet replied: "Don't think anyone made that claim   i.e. in
the bill  (straw man argument)"

Vanlandingham had written: "Republicans on the House Choice and
Innovation Committee voted along party lines Tuesday to pass a bill that
aims to stamp out 'leftist totalitarianism' by 'dictator professors' in
the classrooms of Florida's universities."

Later he also wrote: "According to a legislative staff analysis of the
bill, the law would give students who think their beliefs are not being
respected legal standing to sue professors and universities."
