A University of California, Davis, professor who has stated in the past that police officers should be killed and tweeted “it’s easier to shoot cops when their backs are turned” was finally criticized by the university for his remarks one month after a young female police officer from Davis was shot and killed in the line of duty.
University of California, Davis literature professor Joshua Clover’s past history was brought to the university’s attention after comparative literature student Nick Irvin, outraged by the death of police officer Natalie Corona, exposed Clover’s remarks in an op-ed in The California Aggie. The University released a statement reading, “We find it unconscionable that anyone would condone much less appear to advocate murder. A young police officer has been killed serving the city of Davis. We mourn her loss.”
