The other day we told you about the University of Kansas professor who went viral for all the wrong reasons. That professor said men who won't vote for Kamala Harris (or any woman candidate) should be lined up and shot. After the video started making the rounds on social media, the University of Kansas issued a statement indicating they were investigating the incident.

Today, Dr. Roger Marshall, Kansas Senator, reports that professor is no longer employed by the university:

More from the Kansas Reflector:
A University of Kansas lecturer who suggested men who refuse to vote for a woman president solely because she is a woman should be shot resigned Friday after a video of his comments went viral, inciting widespread backlash.
Barbara Bichelmeyer, KU provost and executive vice chancellor, announced Friday in a statement that the lecturer, Phillip Lowcock, “left the university.” The announcement came two days after a conservative pundit posted a video to the social media platform X, formerly Twitter, that showed Lowcock addressing a classroom of students and making what the university dubbed an “inappropriate reference to violence.”
He FA'd, and now he's FO'd
GOOD.. Hope he never gets another job

He probably will. He's the rule and not the exception in academia, sadly.

Bet he didn't count on a Senator up is a** the next week when he was giving that lecture. He probably thought he was being funny.
These people are sick.
Justice served. He needs to find a new profession.

He did not count on this backlash.
The real question is who will hire him, and how much more money will he be paid for being the brave, honest and loyal soldier to the cause that he is?

A fair question.
hahaha you love to see it. Thanks for doing the right thing, @UnivOfKansas https://t.co/XdnNfdklgA

Yes. It was the right thing.
@UnivOfKansas This is the EXACT right and moral thing to do! This man does NOT need to be a professor! https://t.co/5wVMUZbf9u

Any other person would've been let go.

But what about the professor's intent "to emphasize his advocacy for women's rights and equality"? That was what he was doing to the University after all.
We should talk to the University's PR staff about their statement. There appears to be confusion. 😇

We all know that was bull because there are a million ways to advocate for 'women's rights and equality' that don't involve mass murder.
This is how it should be! We need more leaders willing to step up and do the right thing. Thank you Dr. Marshall and the University of Kansas https://t.co/bCvKeZUf9e

There's a lesson here. Hopefully this professor learned it.
