Criminal Justice Professor Who Called For Police Deaths Placed On Administrative Leave
The Daily Caller ^ | 09/15/17 | Ian Miles Cheong

Posted on 09/16/2017 5:24:39 AM PDT by Enlightened1

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.

Not a strong academic background. He’s some kind of part-time adjunct, not a professor.

Not that latex!

It’s a variant of this!

It’s a printing format.

Yep, I’m sure the conversation included her telling Mr. Giraffe that there was nothing wrong with what he said but that he needs to watch where he communicates their intentions and methods.

People should not be fired for what they say or do on their own time unless that action renders them unable to physical do their job.(such as being in jail.)

That said the bad teacher’s opinion does undermine the reliability of his related profession, thus the university has a vested interest in not letting it get out that their students will be taught this lawless hate instead of the law he is suppose to teach.
