re: #46 Charmingly Persistent

I find this overreaction to be deeply weird. When I was in college, we had a tent city to protest apartheid. Nothing happened except people had to walk around it.

I’m sure the administration hated every moment of it, but they had the sense not to make it a hundred times worse by calling in LAPD to bust a bunch of student heads (I don’t think we even had campus police).

I just - I would astonished if students weren’t protesting. That’s what they do. I do not get the severe overreaction at all. Let them protest!

Here’s my conspiracy theory: the university president has been told to send the police after the students so they will wonder why Biden isn’t standing up for their rights AND the people in Gaza.
