Mike Isaacson, a professor at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice who made numerous jokes about dead cops and openly supports Antifa, has been placed on administrative leave by the school.
The college contacted The Daily Caller Friday with a statement from college president Karol V. Mason to announce that the professor has been placed on administrative leave following TheDC reporting on Isaacson’s comments. The report prompted users on social media to participate in a popular #FireMike Twitter hashtag calling for the college to take action against him.
“Many of you may be aware of recent statements made by a John Jay College adjunct on social media, television and in the press,” he wrote, and proceeded to denounce Isaacson’s statements.
“I want to state clearly that I was shocked by these statements. They are abhorrent. This adjunct expressed personal views that are not consistent with our college’s well known and firm values and principles and my own personal standards and principles,” he continued.
“I am appalled that anyone associated with John Jay, with our proud history of supporting law enforcement authorities, would suggest that violence against police is ever acceptable. I join with the many students, faculty, alumni and other members of our community in condemning these statements. The John Jay alumni who work in law enforcement, and the students who aspire to careers in law enforcement, represent our best. They secure the safety of our families and communities and deserve our respect.

All of my criminal justice professors we gray haired, retired law enforcers, each with decades of experience on the street. This guys mere age and obvious lack of true bonifides would have made him a profound joke at a university that is interested in more than getting a student’s money.
LOL - LaTex is a software program.
That is half a dozen of these putative “academics” who have recently been chastized by their institutions for leftist ranting. What’s happening? Is the earth moving undur the University feet? are the successful alumnae keeping their wallets in their pockets?
I would like to attempt, to wipe the silly grin off his face.
True I’m no longer a spring chicken, my nose has been broken a few times, my knuckles too...
Any speed I ever had is mostly gone, but I still work out five days a week...
Git in close and bite off the first thing available, while feeling for an eye to gouge or a soft spot on the throat.
Been some years since an actual fight, but for this one, I’m in.
And I’m pissed.
I'll stick my neck out and say yes. Good Lord, when the Revolution comes the Sansons of the day are going to have fun with him.

And no note on this jamoke, on the school’s wiki page?
I saw that when I looked it up. But still, acronyms . . . Haha!
I’d be interested in learning the percentage of students at John Jay that are present, former and possibly future LEOs.
Maybe Ford Prefect was somehow responsible?
Administrative leave = paid vacation until the media heat dies down.
I wanted to punch him,too. And I am a nonviolent old woman.
Is that a pencil neck?
I hope you are right.
If he is fired, though, look for him to be a guest commentator on MSNBC.
I hope you are right.
************
And I think you’re right right. He’ll probably get his own show.
Aha! Explains a lot. He probably won’t be fired, then.
Ack! Look at #20.
Wow! That puts this episode in a whole new light. She and he are fellow travelers.
I find it most disturbing that John Jay College would hire the Antifa Giraffe
He was spouting his BS at a school that teaches a great deal of Police Officers and Lawyers.
