| College boots ex-Delta Force hero after complaint from LGBT activists |
| 2016-05-20 |
| [FOX] Jerry Boykin is the kind of man you’d want teaching your sons ‐ a good and decent man, an honorable man - a Christian man. For the past nine years the retired lieutenant general has taught leadership and ethics at Hampden-Sydney College, a highly regarded, all-male school based in Virginia. By many accounts ‐ he is beloved and deeply respected by students. But Gen. Boykin will not be returning to the classroom this fall. That’s because he tells me he's been fired. The man who was one of the original members of Delta Force and once commanded all of the U.S. Army’s Green Berets ‐ the man who served his nation with honor and distinction for more than 36 years ‐ was ousted because of political correctness. |

| #10 He's a man of principle. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that he just quietly walked away. |

| #9 From Frank G's link: Less than six hours later, the college reversed its decision and offered the retired general a one-year contract. To the end of this school year or the end of next school year? And what happens when the end is reached? |

| #1 Dear Jerry, Thank you for your exemplary service to freedom. Thank you for your devotion to exercising freedom. Consider the spite by the commies another earned strip of honor for you have wounded the enemies of freedom again. You da man! |
