University of Tampa fires sociology professor for inappropriate tweet in which he said Texas got Harvey because it voted GOP
Kenneth Storey was an assistant professor of sociology at Tampa University. Sociology professors are typically uber-left wing. Storey was no exception. He could not restrain himself from making a political issue out of storm Harvey.
On Sunday he tweeted: “I don’t believe in instant karma but this kinda feels like it for Texas. Hopefully this will help them realize the GOP doesn’t care about them.”
When a guy named Derek Burgan responded, “I guess since we’re [Florida] a Red state we deserve some bad karma too, right,” Storey replied, “Yep, those who voted for him [Trump] here deserve it as well.”
Storey is no longer a sociology professor at the University of Tampa. Although he apologized, the university fired Storey on Tuesday.
Free speech can have its consequences!

ASSHOLE FIRED FOR ASSHOLEISHNESS
by Bob Walsh
Kenneth L Storey used to be a visiting assistant professor of Sociology at the University of Tampa, Florida. He was insensitive and stupid enough to Tweet that hurricane Harvey was a karmic payback to the denizens of Texas for voting for Trump for President.
He is now unemployed and his Twitter page is gone. He caught a LOT of heat over his moronic post and the powers that be at the University figured it was time for him to go away.
Good call.
