Howard University students entered their fourth day of a protest Monday in which they occupied an administrative building and demanded campus police disarm.
The Washington, D.C., students initiated the protest March 29 after the school fired employee Tyrone Hankerson, Jr., who allegedly stole $429,000 in financial aid money. But not all of the demands directly align with resource allocation transparency.
“We demand the immediate disarming of campus police officers and the formation of a Police Oversight Committee controlled by students, faculty, staff, and off-campus community representatives,” The Concerned Students of HU Resist wrote in a letter that has been shared over 2,500 times on Twitter.

ReplyDeleteRemove the police from the campus
ReplyDeleteMaks about as much sence as police wanting to disarm citizens. Truth is i suport the silly snowflakes, in principle.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely remove the police from the campus and tell the students they are to use campus police for any and all calls, not city, not state, not county, just campus police then see how they make out.
ReplyDeleteWHO you gonna call?
ReplyDeletePresident Trump just stopped a caravan of 1500 illegals heading to our border by threatening to defend our border with Military force if needed, and he would do it, there in lies the key. That being said, tell these entitled students they have 2 hours to disperse and go back to class or the very Campus Police they want to disarm will breach the building and start arresting them, then do it. You can threaten all you want, but if you don't follow through, you will never be taken seriously.
ReplyDeleteRemove the cops from the school, and post on the news, Facebook, and Twitter that this school has no armed police to defend against a shooter. Brag it up that this is the safest school around, and no shooter will ever do a crime here. Challenge any shooter to even try.
ReplyDeleteIt is a gun free zone.
Then we just sit back an wait for the shooter to come and prove us wrong.
