the Associated Press reports "Kevin Barrett believes the U.S government might have destroyed the World Trade Center. Steven Jones is researching what he calls evidence that the twin towers were brought down by explosives detonated inside them, not by hijacked airliners.

these are not just ordinary people with extreme theories, they are professors. one teaches at Wisconsin and the other at Bringham Young. i do not think people who publicly announce radical theories as this one should be able to teach. 60 state legislatures would agree with me, they are protesting these two professors. the U.S. government did not blow up the towers or the people inside them, nor would a conspiracy of this size be possible. people who believe in conspiracies such as this should be put in a mental institution.

Speaking as a professor, professors are just ordinary people. The only students that would believe someone who says something crazy just because the person saying it is a professor are people that don't use their brains. Most students are smart enough to ignore conspiracy theories like these, even if they come from a credible source.
We do, however, live in a country that not only promotes free speech, it protects it under the Constitution. People have the protected right to be flaming idiots in America and they can't be fired (unless it affects their job performance) and they can't be institutionalized (unless they are potentially a harm to themselves or others).
"60 state legislatures would agree with me,"
No they wouldn't, this isn't possible. A legislature is an elected body of officials. There are only 50 states, so there can't be 60 state legislatures. I believe what you were trying to say was 60 state legislators. The spelling makes all the difference.
