A lecturer at the University of Kansas (KU) has been suspended after making a violent remark against men who do not want to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris.
Phillip Lowcock, a lecturer in KU’s Department of Health, Sport and Exercise Sciences, was placed on administrative leave after a video surfaced of him calling for violence against men in the United States.
“[If you think] guys are smarter than girls, you’ve got some serious problems,” he said in the now-viral clip. “That’s what frustrates me. There are going to be some males in our society that will refuse to vote for a potential female president because they don’t think females are smart enough to be president.”
“We could line all those guys up and shoot them. They clearly don’t understand the way the world works,” Lowcock continued. “Did I say that? Scratch that from the recording. I don’t want the deans hearing that I said that.”
Lowcock does not mention Harris by name, and the clip shows him commenting rhetorically on the concept that men will only refuse to vote for her and other female candidates because they are women. (Related: Unhinged and more dangerous than they were in 2016, liberal Democrats will become even more violent after eight years of Trump Derangement Syndrome eating away at their brains.)
It should also be noted that the other major candidate in the election, former President Donald Trump, has never claimed that Harris is ineligible for the presidency because she is a woman, but has instead referred to her as incapable of wielding the powers of the presidency because of her character and her policies.
Lowcock’s remarks were immediately condemned for the violent rhetoric targeting men – both conservatives and liberals who prefer Trump over Harris. Kansas Sens. Roger Marshall and Jerry Moran, both Republicans, took to social media to air their disagreements.
“This is disturbing and inappropriate,” wrote Moran. “There should never be a call for violence anytime or anywhere in the classroom. We must cool down the political rhetoric and be respectful and civil to each other, and that is especially true for someone charged with teaching our young people.”
“This guy shouldn’t be within 100 yards of a university and I am calling for his swift termination,” said Marshall. “The University of Kansas must fire this professor immediately. Anyone who says that people who don’t vote for Kamala Harris should be ‘lined up and shot’ is completely deranged and shouldn’t be around students nor in academia. This promotion of political violence should be met with quick action.”
In two statements, KU confirmed that it is aware of the video of Lowcock and that he has been placed on administrative leave, pending further investigation.
“The instructor offers his sincerest apologies and deeply regrets the situation,” said KU Director of News and Media Relations Erinn Barcomb-Peterson. “His intent was to emphasize his advocacy for women’s rights and equality, and he recognizes he did a very poor job of doing so. The university has an established process for situations like this and will follow that process.”
The university noted that it has a process for working through these kinds of situations based on the school’s Ethical Code of Conduct.
“It is equally important that we, as a government entity [public research university], not stifle the lawful dissemination of ideas, even if some members of our community find those ideas abhorrent. We must always be a place where all members can meaningfully connect, discuss challenging issues, develop well-considered opinions and perspectives and, as is so often necessary, agree to disagree,” KU’s Ethical Code of Conduct states.
“The University recognizes that the free exchange of ideas is fundamental to the scholarly process. The professionalism of our discourse is an individual and collective responsibility of all University employees.”
