Outrage Erupts as Ontario Biology Professor Mocks Trump Shooting Incident on Social Media, Sparks Calls for University Action

Shoshanna Jacobs, a biology professor at the University of Guelph in Ontario, caused a stir on social media with a controversial comment regarding the recent assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

Last Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania, Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old, attempted to assassinate former President Trump during a rally.

Using an AR-style rifle, Crooks fired shots from a rooftop 130 yards away from the rally stage at around 6:15 PM.

In response to a video of the shooting, Jacobs, who teaches integrative biology and has been with the university since 2012, made a comment that sparked widespread condemnation.

On X, a social media platform, Jacobs wrote, ‘When 4 inches really matters,’ referencing how narrowly Trump escaped being hit directly.

Jacobs’ remark drew immediate backlash online.

Many criticized the professor for insensitivity given the gravity of the situation.

Social media users tagged University of Guelph officials, demanding Jacobs’ dismissal, questioning whether someone with such views should be teaching.

Reaction from Trump Supporters

Supporters of Donald Trump were particularly vocal, criticizing media coverage that they felt downplayed the seriousness of the assassination attempt.

They also condemned opinion pieces they deemed inappropriate in the aftermath of the incident.

Tragic Loss and Personal Impact

Amidst the fallout, the tragic death of Corey Comperatore, who was killed while shielding his family during the shooting, added to the emotional toll.

His family members mourned his loss publicly, describing him as a hero for sacrificing his life to protect his loved ones.

Trump’s Response

Donald Trump himself confirmed being struck by a bullet and expressed condolences for those affected by the attack.

He praised law enforcement’s swift response and emphasized the gravity of the incident for the nation.

Conclusion

The incident has ignited debates over the limits of free speech, the responsibilities of educators on social media, and the broader implications of political rhetoric in a polarized environment.
