It’s a good thing this student resigned from her position. Leaders aren’t supposed to say things like this. Leaders are supposed to know better.

Student Leader Resigns After Stating She Has ‘No Sympathy’ for Murdered Cops

The Brandeis University student leader who publicly stated that she had “no sympathy” for the executed New York Police Department officers resigned her position on Sunday after TruthRevolt and other outlets drew attention to her statements.

Khadijah Lynch, who was an Undergraduate Department Representative for the African and Afro-American Studies Department, tweeted, “i have no sympathy for the nypd officers who were murdered today” and “lmao, all i just really dont have sympathy for the cops who were shot. i hate this racist fucking country” among other insensitive remarks shortly after the officers were shot execution-style by a Baltimore-based gangster.

Chad Williams, the chair of the department, released a statement late Sunday announcing that Lynch had resigned her position as UDR. The statement in full:

Twitter comments by Brandeis undergraduate Khadijah Lynch (‘16) regarding the recent shooting of two New York Police Department officers have received widespread media attention. Many of the responses to her comments, beginning with an article written by a fellow Brandeis student Daniel Mael (‘15) for the blog Truth Revolt, have noted that Ms. Lynch is a “student leader” who serves as an Undergraduate Department Representative (UDR) for the African and Afro-American Studies (AAAS) Department.

The comments of Ms. Lynch, made through her own personal Twitter account, do not reflect the views of AAAS as a department. AAAS, unequivocally, does not promote nor condones a disregard for the loss of human life. The deaths of officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu are a tragedy and should be treated with proper respect. We express our most sincere condolences to their family and loved ones.
