Anti-Police Protesters Vandalize Campus at UC-Davis
“They also had smoke bombs that they placed outside of facilities along with a giant wooden pig that said ‘we will outlive policing.’”
If you really wanted police off campus, wouldn’t it make more sense to prove you can act civilized without police?

‘F**k 12’: Anti-cop protestors vandalize their campus
A group of anti-police protestors recently vandalized the University of California Davis campus in a demonstration that involved setting off smoke bombs and graffitiing school property, witnesses told Campus Reform.
Jenna DiCarlo, chairwoman of the UC-Davis College Republicans, said that the incident began as a peaceful demonstration against policing.
However, “at some point people went around and vandalized the signs of the UC police and fire departments, as well as the sidewalk,” DiCarlo said. “They also had smoke bombs that they placed outside of facilities along with a giant wooden pig that said ‘we will outlive policing.’”
Karen Nikos-Rose, associate director of news and media relations at the university, told Campus Reform that the protest marked the ten-year anniversary of the “pepper spray incident.”
“A group marched from the campus center to the Police/Fire building,” Nikos-Rose said. “Protesters let off a smoke device outside the building and spray painted a sign. The protest dispersed about 5:30 pm.”
DiCarlo said that UC-Davis “Cops off Campus” group was responsible for the protest. A recent post to the group’s Instagram page shows the aftermath of the vandalism, along with the caption, “looks like folks were busy on Thursday…”
Campus Reform obtained photographs that depicted the same acts of vandalism shown in the university’s Cops off Campus Instagram account.

This disruption was a guarantee when UC Davis lowered their matriculation requirements
“If you really wanted police off campus, wouldn’t it make more sense to prove you can act civilized without police?”
They don’t want to get rid of “police,” they want to get rid of the police.
Then they can be “the police.” And judge, jury, and punisher, too.
It’s not about policing, it’s about who is to do it and by what standards.
That’s about right. Although, I would qualify that observation. The powerful and sinister left-wring authoritarians that are trying to manipulate society to obtain more power and persecute their political enemies are to blame for this. They know exactly what they are doing. On the other hand, most of the protestors themselves are simply young, ignorant, and most of all, useful idiots who are motivated by false propaganda and fairy-tales. One of my favorite songs is “Won’t get fooled again” by The Who. Its message is timeless.
Now the college campuses can become little banana republics, which is where they are headed.
