    I can't help but wonder how much good these meaning-seeking SJWs could have done had they focused their hours locally and actually helped someone.

        And they did focus their time locally! They burned down 3 stores and a police station over George Floyd!

              The abstract is appalling but the tweeter’s question ‘Will Biden Act?’ is a non-sequitur. Do we really want presidents to censor law review articles

                If asked today, nobody would want them to send the National Guard to a public school.

                  The president of California State University in Los Angeles declared that pro-Palestinian activists are no longer welcome on campus after a group of activists occupied last week the first four floors of a university building, causing significant damage and allegedly assaulting three employees and one student.

                  So long as the [Gaza Solidarity] Encampment remained non-violent, I was committed that the university would continue to talk,' California State University President Berenecea Johnson Eanes wrote after a group of activists occupied a university building, causing significant damage and allegedly assaulting three employees and one student

                            This coming weekend into next week is the European Respiratory Society meeting in Vienna. I’ll be able to spend quality time with my friend in Columbia leadership there. Can’t wait to hear some scoop about the president leaving.

                                There are few words to describe these morons.

                                The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                                    Tweeter is congressman Richie Torres, was originally known as squad-adjacent like Bowman but came out super pro-Israel after 10:7. He’s from the Bronx. (Never got on my bill but will keep trying).

                                      That makes me think Senator Torres doesn't want to free palestine.

                                      Education is extremely important.

                                        You know, this is pretty mild compared to 1970.

                                          True, that.

                                          Remember Big Al? His wife was at Kent State in 1970 when all that went down.
