Police finally clearing college campuses of assholes and terrorists.
Took long enough.

DePaul students are vowing to keep their protest "city" up until all their demands are met.
Hopefully the administration gives them 15 minutes to beat it, and then calls in a bulldozer to clear it out. If the assholes want to stay there, they can get bulldozed too.

Hey Peeps, can you fill me in on this story? I haven't been following the college campus thing.

Protestors against university and government support and collaboration with Israel have built tent cities and taken over buildings in universities across the country. There has been harassment against students for being Jewish in some cases as well.
Instead of telling these little shits to clear the way and get fucked, university leaders have been negotiating with them.

Got it.
See, I understand why these things bother you, but we can't just take away the right to demonstrate. There has to be some middle ground, especially if there are examples of anti-Jewish discrimination.

As I get older, the less patience I have for stupidity.
People can protest their dumb fucking cause as long as it doesn't interfere with anybody else's day. The minute it does, you can fuck off.
I know that's not a popular idea. But I'm a grumpy fuck. Haha.

Hey man, you're entitled to your own opinion. However, I'd be curious to know how you'd respond if your kids decided to take up a cause that they believe in. Would you support them?

There has to be some middle ground, especially if there are examples of anti-Jewish discrimination. I am all for peaceful demonstration. This has not been that. You cannot take over buildings in a university demanding the impossible and restrict students and faculty from learning and teaching. That is destructive and antithetical to what they want. Also many of these are private campuses and not public schools. If you think J6 rioters should be prosecuted then the same applies to these misguided youths. Unfortunately they are turning most moderates and centrists away from their cause by behaving in this manner. Between demanding the University honor your meal plan while locking yourself inside is beyond parody, it is downright offensive to lower the American flag and raise the Palestinian one which happened here at UNC. That led to some violence.

That's fair. I wasn't familiar with the story, but if all that happened then I'm 100% agreement with you guys.

Aren't the non-violent/overly zealous ones simply protesting the genocide of the Palestinian people, which now stands at over 30,000.

Not really. They're calling for the elimination of Israel and the support of Hamas.
People cam couch it in whatever language they want, but let's be honest.

Zero issue with my hypothetical child protesting something that wasn't popular. Especially if we're talking about genocide. Which we are. I'd discuss the positives and negatives and let them do them. If the administration was being excessive, I'd consider allowing the kid to transfer. If my hypothetical child was intimidating Jewish, Arab, or any people with their protest, I'd be saving about $100k the next year because their ass is coming home for at least a year. You're going to work and learn about some shit. If they're taking the Dean hostage I'm getting an attorney and trying to figure out what I did wrong.

All I know is that I support the average Israel citizen as well as the average Palestinian citizen. In fact, I don't think either hates one another. Or at least that's my hope. My problem is with Hamas, IDF and Netanyahu.
