Comments by a UC Davis English professor several years ago reportedly saying he believes police officers “need to be killed” have gained attention since the shooting death of Davis police Officer Natalie Corona.
Joshua Clover, a professor of English and Comparative Literature, tweeted in 2014, “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,” according to UC Davis’ college newspaper The California Aggie.
On his now-private Twitter account, he also reportedly tweeted, “I mean, it’s easier to shoot cops when their backs are turned, no?”
Clover also responded to an SF Weekly interview question in 2015 asking him what he believed what was wrong with society. He replied, “People think that cops need to be reformed. They need to be killed.”

The leftists hate the police because the police protect ordinary people from violence. You can be sure that if America goes full Socialist and there is a Gestapo-like force set up to arrest dissidents and spy on people, that leftists will love this “police” force.
And he’ll be dead too, someday, and the world will be better off without him.
This from the University’s website: “Joshua Clover specializes in critical theory, Marxism, political theory, political economy, poetry and poetics. Interests include social movements, social reproduction theory, crisis theory and the end of capitalism. “
No wonder we’re all shocked /s/
That’s what I thought, too. “Hoi, Sailor!”
In the part of Texas I came from, if you walked around crowing about how someone needs to be killed, YOU might be the one to wind up with your own lamp blowed out...
Just sayin’
What would happen to a police officer if he made this statement except inverted.
Exactly.
What would happen if an angry cop or cop’s relative were to blow this moron’s head off with a large caliber handgun?
Would it be cute and funny then, O ye campus hypocrites?
