College President Asks Students To Commit Suicide

Paige Patterson is the president of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth. I knew he wasn't the brightest bulb on the college president christmas tree, but now it looks like he's completely lost his mind.

At last Wednesday's chapel service, he told the SBTS male students that if something happened on their campus like the shootings at Virginia Tech, he expected them to "charge the shooter", sacrificing their lives if neccessary.

This is nothing more than asking his students to commit suicide. A committed shooter with two loaded semi-automatic pistols can easily take out a whole classroom charging at him. A college president does not have the right to demand his students act in a suicidal manner.

Many students at Virginia Tech did act bravely and saved classmates, by blocking doors and kicking out windows to help classmates escape. I applaud their actions. But no one has the right to demand someone charge a loaded gun.

Patterson should resign immediately. If not, then if a shooter ever comes on his campus, Patterson should put a bullet thru his own empty head. It is only right that we should expect him to commit suicide as he has demanded that his students do.

What a moron!
