Yet they only have 200 signatures to boot:

The Black Student Union at the University of California, Irvine has called for the abolition of the campus police department, calling the very idea of policing “unethical.”

“The problem is that policing as an institution is unethical; it accompanies anti-Black violence,” the BSU writes in a Change.org petition, which as of this writing has a goal of 200 signatures.
