Should Ward Churchill be Fired?

[GTripp0012]

I don't think anyone should ever lose their job for comments that don't present a clear or present danger that consitutes at least some reasonable sort of assault. IMHO, actions speak far louder than words.

It may just be the way I was raised, but for the life of me I can't understand how so many instances of radical but non threatening comments reach the national level of media. It's just a non-issue.

Yeah, professor Ward Churchill is probably some crazy conspiracy theorist, but then again, maybe hes just taking a perspective on things that we as Americans rarely take. Who knows? The point is, he hasn't done crap to endanger anyone around him, nor has he done anything illegal (or done anything at all for that matter), so I'm not sure why his job would be in jeporady.

For the record, I'm very happy Roger Goddell is cleaning up the league. But wouldn't you all be confused if he lumped Clinton Portis in with the Tank Johnson, PacMan Jones, Chris Henry group for something he (didn't) said, when his actions were a non issue?
