A California professor embarrassed a Christian student, calling him a "fascist b -- rd" for giving a class speech about traditional marriage, according to attorneys with the Alliance Defense Fund (ADF) Center for Academic Freedom.
Feb. 18, 2009 -- A lawsuit filed last week against officials of the Los Angeles Community College District claims a professor censored and threatened to expel a student at Los Angeles City College following the student's speech about marriage and his Christian faith during a public speaking class assignment.
"Christian students shouldn't be penalized or discriminated against for speaking about their beliefs," said Alliance Defense Fund (ADF) senior counsel David French. "Public institutions of higher learning cannot selectively censor Christian speech. This student was speaking well within the confines of his professor's assignment when he was censored and ultimately threatened with expulsion."
