Comments by a UC Davis English professor several years ago reportedly saying he believes police officers “need to be killed” have gained attention since the shooting death of Davis police Officer Natalie Corona.
Joshua Clover, a professor of English and Comparative Literature, tweeted in 2014, “I am thankful that every living cop will one day be dead, some by their own hand, some by others, too many of old age #letsnotmakemore,” according to UC Davis’ college newspaper The California Aggie.
On his now-private Twitter account, he also reportedly tweeted, “I mean, it’s easier to shoot cops when their backs are turned, no?”
Clover also responded to an SF Weekly interview question in 2015 asking him what he believed what was wrong with society. He replied, “People think that cops need to be reformed. They need to be killed.”

This after the pretty rookie cop was killed in Davis.
UC Davis receives multiple 10s of millions of dollars in federal research grants.
President Trump, please cut them off until this guy is FIRED.

These idiots are all the same. They hate cops until that moment they desperately need one.

Our massive, debt-fed academia-industrial complex is where useless leftist parasites go to hide.

Condemned him? Is that like a verbal scolding and then he went back to teaching our young adults this crap?

How would he react if he discovered people were online saying University Professors need to be killed?
