From the RWEC:
Biden's current policy toward Israel and Hamas is literally "very fine people on both sides."
Seems demonstrably false.
Which part? The White House appeasement of Hamas, or the claim that Trump said Nazis were fine people?

@George-K those are chairs and stuff getting ready for the Columbia commencement which is held on the campus. Although the ceremony is tentative at best right now because of threats of disruption.
Ah...makes sense. Thanks.

"Mostly Peaceful."
This person, who identifies as a reporter, states that she didn't see anything that was close to violent.

Message needs to be sent. Do not interrupt graduation.
Want to protest? Do so peacefully and in a designated spot away from the graduation ceremonies.
Interrupt graduation? You are no longer part of the Columbia community. Have a nice life.

What would you like to bet there are 800 kids that would love to go to school at Columbia?

We, as a society - and at the moment - especially the left, have the lost - if it was ever had - the concept of "peaceful protest." What's seems especially
stupidill-considered is acting in such a manner as to lose the audience whose support one should be seeking - i.e. blocking the road to an airport, destroying businesses, frightening innocents, etc. The "medium is the message" has been transformed into the "method of protest becomes the message" - and the credibility and message of these protestors is lost. -
Echoes of the Antifa crap?
