James Tracy Is Officially Fired By Florida Atlantic University

[LiberalArkie]

James Tracy, the Florida Atlantic University communications professor who claimed the Sandy Hook elementary school massacre was fake and publicly quarreled with the parents of one of the slain children, was officially fired on Tuesday.

Florida Atlantic, based in Boca Raton, said in a brief statement Tuesday evening that it had served Tracy a notice of termination, and that his last day will be Jan. 8. Tracy had tenure, and was notified on Dec. 16 that the university proposed to fire him.

Tracy had became known nationally for claiming the Sandy Hook massacre was staged and for suggesting other episodes of violence, including the Boston Marathon bombing and San Bernardino shooting, were fake as well.

Lenny and Veronique Pozner, parents of a child killed in the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, claimed recently that Tracy had led a harassment campaign against them. Tracy had sent them a certified letter demanding proof of their parentage. He called them "alleged parents" on his blog and accused them of fabricating their son's death certificate to cash in on Sandy Hook.

3. I think that there are a lot of people that can not grasp how evil some people can be. That

a kid could go and shoot up and kill other children can not be grasped. It goes against everything that they had known and believed.

7. But that's not why he was fired.

When the parents took steps to prevent their son's photo from being used on conspiracy websites, Tracy sent them a certified letter demanding proof they were Noah's parents and that their son ever lived, the family wrote in a Sun Sentinel opinion piece.

Tracy fired back online, calling the Pozners "alleged parents" and accusing them of cashing in on Sandy Hook and fabricating their son's death certificate.

"If Noah actually died, there would have been no reason to fake it." Tracy wrote.

Although FAU leaders privately expressed outrage, a collective bargaining agreement with the faculty union generally protects professors from being fired for legal outside activities that are unrelated to their university duties.

Instead, FAU officials fired him for different reasons: insubordination and circumvention of FAU policies.

8. Good riddance.

I am utterly incapable of understanding the cruelty of people who would try to tell the parents of murdered children that their children had never existed. What a warped POS.
