A University of Kansas instructor has been placed on administrative leave after making violent remarks about men who do not support female presidential candidates in a classroom video that went viral. The instructor, Phil Lowcock, expressed frustration with men who believe women aren't smart enough to be presidents, suggesting that such individuals should be 'lined up and shot.'
