Are they actually breaking any laws or are we ok with militarized state police threatening 1st amendment rights for people who have opinions we don't agree with now?
Before the hate and downvotes come this is a serious question. I haven't seen encampments on these other campuses like Columbia and the articles I've peeped have said the troopers were threatening to arrest for trespassing but nobody had been arrested.
You are allowed to peacefully assemble on public university campuses.
For sure, the articles from this campus I had read stated they were threatening arrests for trespassing but none had been made. If anyone is vandalizing or threatening safety that would fall under a different category.
Doesn't help I'm not there as we all know how media can frame, but none the less this video is not a good look and feels like a great way to whip up some more division with media.
I suppose we have the rebranded BLM/antifa movement ready to ride.
You're spot on and I find it a bit distressing that you're getting downvotes.
These kids are complete idiots but we don't put people in jail in this country for speech. Or at least we sure as hell shouldn't. We're lowering ourselves to the tactics of leftist pigs.
For the kids who are destroying property, that's a whole other conversation. But it looks like a lot of these idiots are being arrested for saying something unpopular.
