University student won’t condemn Thin Blue Line as ‘racist,’ now faces impeachment from student gov’t
Standing up for individuals’ rights to show support for the pro-police Thin Blue Line and refusing to condemn the symbol as “racist†has one student government senator at Rochester Institute of Technology facing possible impeachment, The College Fix reported this week.
After Jacob Custer, an RIT senior and Student Government College of Liberal Arts Senator, denied that the Thin Blue Line was a symbol of “overt racism,†21 other student government members signed a petition calling for the student senator’s impeachment.
The petition stemmed from a conversation that occurred in a student government group message about filing a bias report against a school safety officer who wore a Thin Blue Line facemask.
Screenshots of the group message that were included in the petition showed that after one of the representatives suggested pressuring the school’s administration into moving “blue lives matter out of the ‘free speech’ category and into the ‘overt racism’ category,†Custer argued such a move would violate free speech rights.
