In mid-September, UCLA's Race and Equity Director Johnathan Perkins was placed on leave for social media posts he made about the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
He did this on Bluesky, which is a hive of Leftists cheering on political violence. Here's just a sample of what he said:
And here's more from ABC7 about Perkins' suspension from UCLA:
UCLA's director of race and equity has been placed on leave over social media posts he made about the killing of Charlie Kirk, the Los Angeles Times reported Monday.
Jonathan Perkins, an official with UCLA's Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Office, apparently published the remarks on BlueSky. The posts seemed to express both satisfaction and indifference to the fatal shooting of the conservative activist.
The posts were "written in my own hand, in my own voice, in no way the echo of my employer, UCLA," Perkins said in a written statement provided to The Times, adding that they were protected by the First Amendment.
In a statement on its website, UCLA wrote, "UCLA has placed a campus employee on immediate leave and has launched an investigation following reports of social media posts regarding the murder of Charlie Kirk. While free expression is a core value of UCLA, violence of any kind - including the celebration of it - is completely unacceptable and will not be tolerated."
Now Perkins has doubled down on the violent rhetoric, posting "Kill your masters" on Bluesky.
This is a clear violation of the statement UCLA issued in September. Perkins is calling for open violence against our "masters."
Perkins must have realized his post was unwise, as he later deleted it.
This isn't the first time Perkins has made the news. In 2011, UVA refused to discipline Perkins after he made up a story about police harassment.

Yeah
What did Charlie Kirk ever do to this guy?
Crae crae proved again.
