Rutgers professor taken for psychiatric testing after threats to kill white people

[TexasTowelie]

NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. - A Rutgers University professor was taken to a New York City hospital for a psychiatric evaluation after university police claimed he made threats to kill white people, authorities said Wednesday.

But Kevin Allred said the comments he made in class and on Twitter in the days after Donald Trump won the presidential election were just rhetorical political statements. He claims school officials were trying to intimidate him for exercising his free speech rights.

New York police said they were contacted by Rutgers police about the alleged threats. Allred, who is white, was taken to the hospital Tuesday night and released later that night. Allred said he wasn't arrested or handcuffed, but was told he didn't have a choice about going to the hospital.

In postings on Twitter, Allred said the dispute stems from comments he made about whether conservatives would care as much about gun rights if guns were used to kill more white people. He also cited another tweet that showed an American flag being ignited.

2. yep

just a start on suppression of free speech, especially when who exactly voted for thee new fuhrer, when in a crowd, is unknown. Their fuhrer lied and became POTUS, so lying about your progressive or liberal neighbor by trumpfuhrer voters(nazi gernmany) will be "normalized". And the NNPA's 'gestapo' will visit. Guaranteed!!!!
