Last year, students at UC San Diego were protesting the election of Trump and marched out onto a nearby highway. One of the students was hit by a car. Now she is suing the school for not stopping the protest. You couldn’t make this up.

The College Fix reported:

Student protester hit by car as she blocked freeway sues UC San Diego

The University of California-San Diego is now embroiled in a personal injury lawsuit after an election protest gone wrong.

Mariana Flores, a sophomore at UCSD, was demonstrating against Donald Trump’s victory on a busy San Diego freeway when a vehicle hit her. The accident crushed her pelvis, fractured her leg, and caused other serious injuries, reported The Guardian campus newspaper.

Flores, in her suit filed in late November, partly blames campus officials for her injury, arguing they should have stopped the protest before it got dangerous, according to news reports.

Flores’ attorney did not respond to requests from The College Fix seeking comment. A UC San Diego spokesperson said that the university could not comment on pending litigation.

The Nov. 2016 protest had began at “Library Walk” and journeyed through campus. Next, demonstrators ended up on the I-5, a very large and busy eight-laned freeway that cuts through San Diego.

This young social justice warrior has no one to blame but the Democrat party and herself.

Best school response will be to boot any protesters from school to protect themselves from such litigation, which they are likely to be found guilty when their professor employees likely urged the students to go protest, the school gave them facilities to plan protest, and so forth.

Kind of ironic - they brainwash their charges so well that if they try to "stop a protest before it gets dangerous", they would be sued for stepping on the little snots' 1st Amendment Rights - if they allow 'free expression" and the idiots get hurt, then they get sued for not stepping on their rights - I find it amusing.....
