«Breaking News» California professor is reprimanded for saying police 'need to be killed' in a 2016 interview

A California professor has been reprimanded after saying that police officers 'need to be killed' in a 2016 interview. 

University of California, Davis literature professor and author, Joshua Clover, was exposed by comparative literature student Nick Irvin in an opinion piece published in The California Aggie. 

The expose comes more than a month after Davis police officer, Natalie Corona, was shot and killed while on duty. 

'I first heard about a UC Davis professor who thinks cops should be killed late in Fall Quarter. There were murmurings in the newsroom about his in-class discussions, and rumors of how the professor had given an interview that advocated for violence against law enforcement,' Irvin wrote.

Clover, was exposed by comparative literature student Nick Irvin in an opinion piece published in The California Aggie. Irvin said he did some digging and found tweets from Clover's Twitter (pictured) 

Another tweeted from 2014 read: 'I mean, it’s easier to shoot cops when their backs are turned, no?'

He said it was Corona's death that prompted him to dig further to see whether or not the murmurings were true.  

Irvin said he browsed Twitter and found old tweets from Clover.

'I am thankful that every living cop will one day be dead, some by their own hand, some by others, too many of old age #letsnotmakemore,' Clover reportedly tweeted on November 27, 2014.

Another tweeted from 2014 read: 'I mean, it’s easier to shoot cops when their backs are turned, no?'

In an interview published in 2016, when asked what's wrong with society today, Clover said: 'People think that cops need to be reformed. They need to be killed.'

Irvin said he wanted to make the public aware of 'what this university is allowing'.

Irvin said it was the death of Davis officer Natalie Corona (left and right) that prompted him to look into rumors that Clover believed police officers should be killed 

The university (pictured) released a statement that said they 'find it unconscionable that anyone would condone much less appear to advocate murder'. The university did not specify what action, if any, they were taking against Clover

The university released a statement to Fox 40, that said they 'find it unconscionable that anyone would condone much less appear to advocate murder'.

'We support law enforcement, and the UC Davis Police Department and Chief Joe Farrow have been and remain critical partners to our community,' the statement continued. 

Clover responded to the outrage, in a statement to the station: 'On the day that police have as much to fear from literature professors as black kids do from police, I will definitely have a statement. Until then I have nothing further to add.'

The university did not specify what action, if any, they were taking against Clover.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
