Kevin Allred teaches an American Studies course at Rutgers called “Politicizing Beyoncé,” and he’s also no fan of Donald Trump, anybody who doesn’t share his loathing of the U.S. president and just Republicans in general. That was more apparent than ever with this deleted tweet:
Smart tweet. Why'd you delete it? pic.twitter.com/AfdJjWBxNF

Allred might have later deleted that tweet, but he tried to defend it:
saying you wish donald trump was dead is different than making a direct threat against him. just saying… ??♂️

Kevin should be banned from Twitter for the death threat. @FBI

there was no death threat but i guess you have no critical reading skills oh well…??♂️

"Someone should shoot him" is definitely threat-intentioned. @FBI takes those "left handed" comments seriously.

If he really thought there was nothing wrong with the tweet, that leads to an obvious question:
Then why did you delete it? You'll be getting visitors…

The answer is sure to be a doozy.
If one of us said the same about Obama, the "professor" would surely lose his shit. ?
