If you’re disturbed by the increasingly violent tone of leftist rhetoric in the aftermath of President Donald Trump’s election, this story won’t make you feel any better. Kevin Allred, who worked as an adjunct professor in the Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies program at Montclair State University, ranted on Twitter about the president that, “I wish someone would just shoot him outright.”

That same day Allred tweeted an image of Kathy Griffin holding a model of President Trump’s severed head with the caption, “Mood.”

Allred previously lost a teaching gig at Rutgers for tweeting, “Will the Second Amendment be as cool when I buy a gun and start shooting at random white people or no … ?” Judging from this latest incident, he doesn’t seem to be very good at learning his lesson. But it’s worth noting that he no longer shows up on the faculty page for his program at Montclair State—maybe his extremist threats aren’t doing him any favors when it comes to holding down a job.
