No they can live in a democratic society and are protected by the police and army.
A gun is useless as self defence if the other person is already pointing there gun at you
LOL. Trig in college? What did you do in high school?
Russian troll.
You could have pulled up this image on your phone and showed it to him
And then told him our gun rights are not up for debate so please get back to teaching class.

But what if their gun is over there and not there in their hand? Then your gun would come in handy. Unless you left it over there next to their gun.

Surprised it took so long form someone to point this out.
If this story is even true, the professor is entitled to express his opinion just like anyone else. Not sure what the problem is. If you disagree then debate him or ignore him.
(and yes, I know, his critics are entitled to express their opinions as well, even if it is to wrongly suggest he should be silenced or punished)

Actually.......no.
It is illegal for teachers/coaches at any level to tell you who to vote for or to evoke their political beliefs. Not only is it unprofessional and results in immediate revokation of their liscense, it's also grounds to be arrested.
And to answer the op.....yes colleges for search for wormy liberal communist professors, even though it's illegal in all schools for them to spout their political garbagio. unless you go to a........you guessed it.......private christian college. Then they have no laws or governing body with anything. Including educational requirements.

Trigonometry is not offered at the high school level in my state. It is a college level only course, just like calculus. Algebra and geometry are offered at the high school level though.

So my college professor gave a big anti gun rant on Friday. He said nobody should be allowed to own a gun if any kind. Even revolvers. He said guns are the biggest problem in the usa and they need to be permanently banned and this is the main reason why we are one of the worst countries in the world to live in.
Thoughts? Do colleges intentionally search for teachers like this?
This is made up. Its also his opinion. Listen or don't dummy.

I mean it's not surprising I'm in college right now myself and I have heard of people getting this level of extremism. My girlfriend had a professor who cried in class WITH the students about Trump getting elected. This same fully grown adult woman would give bad grades to conservative students, and she also talked about how all guns do is kill people and should be banned. Fast forward 1 year my girlfriend had a teacher who said that she knows that soon the gender binary will no longer be a thing. Campus' are way to liberal now-a-days. An example of how much students don't like guns on campuses is a man had a scheduled visit to our campus with an open carry rifle on his back, and people were absolutely terrified, thought that since he had a gun he was going to hurt them even though he was sitting there having nice conversations with the schools police.
To answer your second question, most people who are teachers/professors lean to the left. This has been the case for a while in upper-level academia. In today's world, being a loud outspoken liberal will get you cheered on while being a patriotic conservative can literally lose you your job. Since conservative viewpoints aren't tolerated on campus, that might be the reason why you don't hear about teachers espousing such beliefs on campus. It would be suicidal career/well-being wise. But in your case, since your teacher clearly has a left leaning, her ranting on politics is allowed.
Patriotic americans. what a moron. Anyone carrying a gun around campus is an attention-seeking piece of crap.
Yeah, crazy to think the most educated (PhD) make the most sense about gun control (versus Cleetus in his double-wide down the gravel road)? [And, yes, I live in rural South &, unfortunately, have lived near a Cleetus all my life.]
Meanwhile, I am an English college professor. I do keep my political views out of the classroom. I teach a lot of non-fiction writing classes. When I teach persuasive essays, I always bring in BOTH sides of the argument (on such topics as internet privacy, immigration, environment, etc.).
Outside the classroom, here's my position: your Second Amendment rights ends when you violate my civil liberties to feel safe in public. Ban all open carry & concealed carry laws. You can pack your house with all the non-automatic weapons you want. But, the moment you bring it out in public, this should be illegal.
A college professor told you that in a "trig class"? I don't think so. Trig is more like tenth or eleventh grade.
Liberal and communist are opposites. No, it is not illegal for teachers to say who you should vote for. That is academic freedom.
I couldn't agree more. The gun violence in this country reflects our primitive caveman ancestry. We fight first and talk later. ?
We're just as primitive as our caveman ancestors who killed with sticks & stones. Now we have high-capicity firearms that can slaughter dozens at a time, e.g., Vegas shooting.
This is such a gun nut society - shoot first and maybe talk later. If this country doesn't ban ALL firearms things will only get worse and hundreds of innocent people will just get SLAUGHTERED like cattle!
Stop the nonsense!
Ban ALL firearms! ?
We must listen to our intellectual betters. Especially when we agree with them. We should ban all combat assault tactical nukes until we can get common sense reforms.

Get out of our country. Why are you still living here?

Do I scare you, Physics Professor? Don't worry. I'm unarmed...except with sensible gun control reform ideas. Too bad I can't say the same about you? I am very afraid that you might kill me with your open carry or concealed carry gun.
Its the same bull from you over and over and over. You are anti gun because you are pro evil. You don't believe evil exists, so you put the blame on an inanimate object like a gun.
You do this to take responsibility off people if color and others who are violent. If you can switch the focus to an inanimate object, then you can let blacks behave however they want and criminals to behave however they want. I don't care if your parents didn't raise you around guns. You personally are a low functioning evil pos if you support gun control.
Every teacher in america should be required to have a gun on them every day in class. Because evil exists. Because people like you exist. You will not stop until we are unarmed and you little minority friends can have all the guns.
Ps- the last thing your buddy Obama did before he left office was try to make it illegal for anyone receiving social security disability to own a gun. He wanted veterans and ppl in wheelchairs to be helpless. Basically the same thing you want.
Any gun control at all is bullshyt.
You are nothing but bullshyt.
And you shouldn't be living here.
