Yup, who knew these antifa/blm guys were so good at rioting…

Campus police across the country will have their hands full for the foreseeable future.

Nothing creates divisive liberal infighting like the topic of Israel.

I remember back in the '60s students at UC Riverside (California) occupied an administration building; the administrators bought them coffee and donuts.

"A protester at Columbia University spoke out on Tuesday and delivered the demands of those occupying Hamilton Hall on the school's Morningside campus. The protester was identified as Johanna King-Slutsky, who has been a campus activist at least since 2021. She was with the Student Workers of Columbia and is a PhD student in English and Comparative Literature."

It sounds like Ms. King-Slutsky is building her CV in preparation for interviews applying for a tenure-track professorship at Berkeley or Harvard.

Yesterday a female Jewish UCLA student was beaten unconscious by pro-Palestine protesters and taken to the hospital for treatment, which apparently set off the response from other Jewish students last night.

No. Confiscate the tents and give them to the homeless.

No. Homeless have enough tents. Give them to hard working people who would like to go camping.

Things have really escalated. The University needs to put safety first and stop allowing the violent disruption on campus property.

Remember the Vanderbilt Kirkland Hall rioter who called 9-1-1 to demand a tampon change?

"Other protesters called emergency medical services for a woman who said that she was at risk of toxic shock because she was not able to change her tampon and cited concerns that she would be arrested if she left the building."
