Yes I would support having all minors present at these protests put into protective services.
Protesters, especially identifiable ringleaders/organizers and any actively participating university faculty, should have their bank accounts frozen as well.

Somewhere I read that among the demands of the "students" is a provision that any suspension, expulsion or arrest not be on their student records, because if you FA you don't want to FO in the future.

Thursday night I’ll be back in NY at a fundraiser with my friend in leadership there. Can’t wait to get her take.

A group of Jewish students has filed a class-action lawsuit against Columbia for failure to provide a "safe learning space."

We all say, "LOL" with stuff like that.
But, in this case, I really did.

I call that the LLOL (literally laughed out loud)
What I would pay for a nice mass arrest video, it would be so great.

Here’s why.
Because the protests are revealing the rot in American universities.
Yup

The absolute BALLS...
A Columbia University protester representing anti-Israel campus occupation protesters asked the institution to provide people occupying Hamilton Hall with food and water.
During a press conference on Tuesday, the individual said that Columbia is “obligated to provide food to students who pay for a meal plan here.”
”I guess it’s ultimately a question of what kind of community and obligation Colombia feels it has to its students? Do you want students to die of dehydration and starvation or get severely ill even if they disagree with you?,” graduate student Johannah King-Slutzky asked.
The protester said that food and water for occupation protesters “is like basic humanitarian aid.”
”We’re asking for, like, could people please have a glass of water?,” the individual said.
