College Democrats Refuse to Endorse Disarm-Police Demands at Stony Brook

A socialist student group at Stony Brook University, located in New York, demanded that the university administration disarm their campus police officers. The Young Democratic Socialists of America student group issued a manifesto that spans four pages, demanding administrators to “revoke firearms from the possession of university police.”

Why?

The group claimed firearms “creates unnecessary tension between officers and the university community, especially between minorities and police.”

But, the group did not offer a countermeasure to a potential school shooter, who would hypothetically be the only person on the campus to have a firearm if the campus police were disarmed.
