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.(snip)
In an interview with The Guardian, Gene Sullivan, Flores’s lawyer, asserted that the university planned, organized and knew the protest was happening for hours and did nothing to stop it.
“According to Sullivan, not doing anything and failing to act is legally the same thing as supporting the protest,” the newspaper reported. “Sullivan further alleged that the protest was encouraged by people in positions of authority at the university, and that ‘if anyone that is in authority with the university – a [Residential Advisor] – says ‘let’s go,’ the university would be responsible.’”

Same thing happened in Charlottesville. The town encouraged the event to happen and the results were predicatble.
I think she just retroactively flunked admission.
I read recently the lady that died had died of a heart attack and not from being struck by the vehicle in Charlottesville. Any truth to that?
MSM never tells us anything. They get to the lie they want and move on to the next fake news story.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
I hope her lawyers gut the university, too.
Talk about a twofer.

Usually 1% liability concludes with 100% payment.
No, she died because she was hit by the car. Her mother was trying to say her heart stopped which happens a lot when you die.
I think she might actually have been chasing the traffic.
You may have something. If you drive on a modern large campus, students seem to have been trained they the world revolves around them. They walk across roads and fully expect the cars to stop for them. I was once driving a passenger bus through a campus and dodging these skulls full of mush.
She sure caught some......
White liberal communist-socialist extremist in CA with a “college degree” ? Well, it’s unlikely she will ever actually have sex with the opposite sex - if she ever figures out what the opposite sex actually is. But, with possible lasting pelvic damage, perhaps she will not be able to breed anyway.
But if she does try, it will cost CA taxpayers even more money. Remember, they only try to clone sheep. Never wolves or men.
Agreed. just wanted to follow the scumbag lawyers argument on out.
Another “the laws of physics do not apply to me” believer. Even though she wasn’t killed, she may still qualify for the Darwin Award if her injuries make her unable to procreate.
Unless they pushed her sorry ass in to the path of the car...
If she wins, can families that lost loved ones to illegals sue cities that protected the illegals??
Careful libs, this sword cuts both ways.
shes still alive....
Darwin award denied.
Yeah, well, her owner should have trained her not to do that when she was a puppy.
but like a dog that catches the car...
she didn’t know what to do.
I read that too - that she had died of a heart attack. I’m pretty sure her family was saying that.
Hell, someone should sue HER for damages of blocking a public road, not to mention damage to the vehicle.
