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.

Administrative Leave, my big, blue eyes. That means he (or she. Hate to be presumptuous) will get paid to NOT work.

Fire his or (or her, depending on how it self-identifies that day) sorry ass.

No mention of “micro aggression” or “safe spaces” in the article?

I was thinking “where did they find this pencil-neck?”, but I think you have a valid question as well.

He should be fired immediately, along with the idiot who hired him to began with. Appearances do count, and he should not be allowed to have any contact with young people.

Administrative Leave = Paid Vacation. Wow, some punishment, Pres. Mason. Why wasn’t this ANTIFA member FIRED? Students at your college should refuse to pay next semester’s tuition until he is fired.

He’ll still be on the pay roll for awhile but I bet the school will dismiss him in short order because they cannot allow a loose cannon to pop off again. Who knows what other crazy vitriol might he might spout?

The statement by the school president pretty much sealed his fate. I don’t think she is willing to run the risk of letting this POS further embarrass her or the school.

That’s the key. When the revenue stream is threatened the college will take action against him. Its always about the money.

Because the DB probably has tenure and/or is a member of a collective bargaining unit that prohibits summary discharge.

"Mike Isaacson, a professor at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice"

Except that we found out yesterday that pencil neck isn't a professor at all. He's some kind of adjunct guest lecturer, like Obama was.

Why is it these liberal scum - and that’s putting it nicely - never pay the price for anything? Never.

And from John Jay College too!

President of John Jay College, Karol Mason, is former assistant attorney general to Eric Holder. She had no problem with Isaacson until he outed himself.
