Professor Wichman E-mail


Claim: A Michigan professor sent an e-mail telling Muslim students to leave the country.

Status: True.
The story begins at Michigan State University with a mechanical engineering professor


Named Indrek Wichman.





Wichman sent an e-mail to the Muslim Student's Association.


The e-mail was in response to the students' protest of the Danish cartoons


That portrayed the Prophet Muhammad as a terrorist.


The group had complained the cartoons were 'hate speech'

============

Enter Professor Wichman..

==========================================

In his e-mail, he said the following:

===============================

Dear Moslem Association,

As a professor of Mechanical Engineering here at MSU I intend to protest your protest.

I am offended not by cartoons, but by more mundane things like beheadings of civilians,

Cowardly attacks on public buildings, suicide murders, murders of Catholic priests (the latest in Turkey), burnings of Christian churches, the continued persecution of Coptic Christians in Egypt, the imposition of Sharia law on non-Muslims, the rapes of Scandinavian girls and women (called 'whores' in your culture), the murder of film directors in Holland, and the rioting and looting in Paris, France ..

This is what offends me, a soft-spoken person and academic, and many, many of my colleagues. I counsel you dissatisfied, aggressive, brutal, and uncivilized slave-trading Moslems to be very aware of this as you proceed with your infantile 'protests.'

If you do not like the values of the West

- see the 1st Amendment - you are free to leave. I hope for God's sake that most of you choose that option ..

Please return to your ancestral homelands and build them up yourselves instead of troubling Americans.

Cordially,

I.. S.. Wichman

Professor of Mechanical Engineering

=============================

As you can imagine,

The Muslim group at the university didn't like this too well.

They're demanding that Wichman be reprimanded and the university impose mandatory diversity training for faculty

And mandate a seminar on hate and discrimination for all freshmen.

Now the local chapter of CAIR has jumped into the fray .

CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, apparently doesn't believe that the good professor

Had the right to express his opinion.

==========

For its part, the university is standing its ground in support of Professor Wichman,

Saying the e-mail was private, and they don't intend to publicly condemn his remarks.

as many you know, the social sciences ar my profesion, and i have more than a passng aquaintance with all forms of equailty and diversity traing, and the various debates and legislation around these issues, and in this case my proffesional opiion is:

that while the prof's message could have been better worder in parts, though maybe some of it has been altered since he wrote it, i don't consider it wrong to express his opinion in this matter

however I am no expert on US law so can only speak fomr a UK point of view. From experience, i also beleive that people getting the oportunity to air their opinions and discuss issues in an environment free from fear or retribution is the only way to progress these matters.

for example, if we shared out country with immigrants from blue land, and i said 'all blue people are violent' and they respond by issuing a death threat, they have sort of proven my point dont you think?

:bowIt's the time wasting, freeloading, dole scrounging, benifit cheating, drains on our society that get my goat..( soz Plank!!).
If u've paid into the system and fallen on tough times...get some payback!!!!
But if you're hypothitically seeking asylum from Blue land (green or any other non discriminatoray colour for that matter!) coz your life is at risk.. By all means come and get a free house and every thing that the working man struggles to afford his family.
But do not further burden the working TAX payer with offspring ,then claim not to be blue / green or whatever but a native of the Island. If you were a native you would be happy to use the same schools and laws as everyone else!! Blaaah! Blaaah! Blaaah!
