Frankly, you should get one free pass for being wrong regarding public law. Polite ridicule would be warranted.

After a second offense, I would expect you to be counseled in writing regarding unwarranted cancellation of classes, wasting student's time as well as police resources.

Following a third iteration, I would expect you to be suspended without pay for a period of time.

If a forth iteration occurred, I would expect your termination from employment with a negative recommendation posted publicly stating your inability to perform your duties in accordance with school policies and procedures.

As an example, say that you stood up in class and demanded that Blacks, Latinos and anyone other than whites move to the rear of the class, and if the students failed to do so, you would call the police to eject them from the classroom. Besides the rightful outroar of the students, I do not imagine the college would be near as tolerant as what I proposed above.

I seem to remember you had a couple of blatant lies GGJohn Oct 2015 #118

Cops use guns. You explicitly claim you will call the cops. Nuclear Unicorn Oct 2015 #35

I would laugh Duckhunter935 Oct 2015 #41

I hope the police you call Duckhunter935 Oct 2015 #45

You would make sure the cops you call were unarmed when they showed up in your classroom, right? n/t shadowrider Oct 2015 #25

And then you could be charged for abuse of the 911 system, GGJohn Oct 2015 #121

Sorry, but I just don't buy your threats. stone space Oct 2015 #130

It's a statement of fact, not a threat. Lurks Often Oct 2015 #133
