If you publicly protest you should be prepared to accept the outcome that police or vigilantes will use tasers, bear spray, zip ties, and or guns to considerably harm and or kill you. Or even that you could be arrested and classified as a "terrorist" and banned from airports, concerts, and other public events for life, just for verbally protesting a war.
When you grow up and see the real world for what it really is. You will come to find out, perhaps the hard way. That the rules and protections of the constitution only apply when and where the authorities say they do. Only when it is convenient and in alignment with what the political agenda of local law enforcement is.
What you're describing is fascism and should be resisted, not accepted.
Or why not simply get a permit to protest? They’re getting arrested for protesting on private property where they aren’t allowed without the permission of the schools.
The crackdown has begun. Clear out the hobo shanties by 2pm or face suspension. Good.
Mom and Dad will be pissed if Becky gets suspended.
Tuition is $65,000 a year at Columbia. Finals are coming up. Are these dummies not attending class? Don't the have papers to write and tests to study for? You would think they would at least wait until Summer Break to protest.

And making asses of themselves at the same time. How is that helping Palestinians? They may indeed be counterproductive to their supposed cause.
The only way something like that should be appropriate is if you could prove that specific individual said or did something truly antisemitic. Protesting the Israeli isn't.

In Texas they're allowed to, Abbot signed a bill allowing all public universities to be free speech zones last year. I guess that slipped his mind.

On the contrary. The more the cops drag them out and body-slam their elderly professors onto concrete, the more their cause grows and the more pressure is applied towards changing US policy.
While the crowd on this board would have gladly seen MLK curb-stomped, they seem to be forgetting that disproportionate crackdowns and shows of authoritarian force historically backfire.

Should be expelled really. I don't get what concern is it of American college students what's going on 10,000 miles away unless they are Palestinian themselves.

I feel the same way about the pro Israel people and pro Ukraine people. Why do you worry about shit so far away?

At least you people can be consistent.
Nice try. Do you see any pro Ukraine encampments on campuses or burning of Russian flags. i.e. 🤔
Calling in reinforcements. This could get messy. The best course of action would be shutting off internet and cell coverage over the encampment. Those kids will abandon their tents without access to TikTok and OnlyFans.

I don't know why you'd think that of the protesters. They're already camping out and risking getting bodied by the pigs rather than sitting inside their comfy apartments playing video games and watching movies. Why would they care?
Though it is a scary thought that the po-po would shut off communications in order to block first-hand reporting.
