Glad I left that box unchecked on my ballot on principle (she ran unopposed) She excused a cop when he killed a kid by shooting him in the back a couple of years ago.

I forgot that this rabi was raising the biggest stink about the encampments and how he was in emergency meetings with admin about how the kids were breaking campus rules by putting up tents. He is also an adjunct law professor at the college along with Julia Reitz.
