Wow, they are now arresting protestors with firearms. Huge escalation. |
Some people have standards. They feed their bodies the way they feed their minds, with thoughtfulness and purity. |
These lists of demands that involves creature comforts and essential supply "do-overs" because they forgot to pack snacks and sippy cups are goddamned ridiculous. And that's from the perspective of someone who thinks the counterprotestors are complete scumbags.
If you have to leave a protest because you forgot to prepare well, deal with it. Don't protest casually, would be the lesson. |
Their list of needs and ask is directed at their supporters. They don't rob the taxpayers of another country to the tune of hundreds of billions to meet their needs the way a certain welfare country does. |
You’re clearly not talking about the protesters. |
I am so disgusted by schools that have “negotiated” with these arrogant dolts. UF seems to be the only school that acted decisively and with common sense.
On Monday Northwestern University said it reached an “agreement” with the leaders of its anti-Israel encampment, which has sprawled across the campus lawn and onto Sheridan Road. In exchange for removing the tents, Northwestern will fund two visiting Palestinian faculty members for at least two years, scholarships for five Palestinian undergraduates and a safe space for Middle Eastern and North African Muslim students. That’s not negotiation; it’s successful blackmail. Students for Justice in Palestine will encourage more of the same from protesters on other campuses if university leaders won’t enforce their own rules. https://www.wsj.com/articles/columbia-northwestern-florida-campus-protests-israel-palestine-30761ae8?st=uqtavouh45j06q1&reflink=article_copyURL_share |
Yes, but people aren't traveling to Asian countries or to Europe either. What happened 5 years ago to cause such a radical worldwide change? A global pandemic. |
So the only problem jihadists have with the US is its support of Israel? That's it? Their only problem is Israel? |
Has anyone seen polls on how Independents in swing states are viewing these campus protests (and Biden’s reaction)? |
I agree with you 100%. It is like giving into your toddler when he/she throws a temper tantrum. You're just reinforcing the bad behavior. |
It’s very clear how the Zionists attacked anti-war activists at UCLA:

What do these clowns have against bananas? |
