Women are strong, independent individuals who should be able to do what they want and say what they think, as long as it doesn’t anger leftists.

A department of feminist studies professor [at University of California Santa Barbara] has been accused of going berserk after coming across a campus prolife demonstration that used extremely graphic displays, leading a small mob of students to chant “tear down the sign” before grabbing one of the signs, storming off with it, then allegedly engaging in an altercation with a 16-year-old prolife protestor who had followed the educator to retrieve it.
Much of the scuffle was recorded on a smartphone by the 16-year-old, Thrin Short. The yet-to-be-released video is now in the custody of Santa Barbara law enforcement officials, who are investigating the March 4 incident.
The professor at the heart of the controversy is Mireille Miller-Young, an associate professor whose area of emphasis is black cultural studies, pornography and sex work, according to her faculty webpage.
I’m not a big fan of these types of graphic pro-life signs, but the fact remains that they show the reality of the matter. That’s why they drive abortion enthusiasts, like the delightfully hyphenated Mireille Miller-Young, completely out of their minds. The anti-baby crowd can’t handle the reality of the policies they espouse, so they try to stifle it.
Allegedly, Miller-Young pushed and scratched Short, but it remains to be seen what the video shows. Seems to me that running around yelling “Tear down that sign!” would be a firing offense all by itself, but that’s why I don’t work in academia.
Also, Miller-Young is black and Short is white, so this whole story is racist. Why are you a racist, you misogynist?
