Eh. There are times when a person in a uniform with some degree of authority on campus would be legitimately helpful, but they’re never around for those moments.
UT campus rape was an epidemic when I was in school, back in the mid-'00s, and the police were notorious for just looking the other way.
First, he was wrong for saying that. Second, he apologized. Was it because he was caught. No idea, good chance of that but 🤷.
More importantly, Zionist =/= Jews. There are plenty of Jews that are anti-Zionist. Some well known Jews including Noam Chomsky who has used the phrase “Judeo-Nazi tendencies” of the Israeli state. There is nothing wrong with being anti-Zionist.
Black voices for Trump are white people and paid black actors. The white people are racist, the black people probably doesn’t even want to be there but need the money
Isn’t this a protest against genocide? Did you see somewhere that protest organizers were advocating for antisemitism? Could you link that for us? That would be very helpful context. Thanks
Genocide? Genocide is not happening in Palestine. The Hamas are doing exactly what they wanted, gain sympathy from gullible people to make them look like the victims. Hamas and Palestine are one, whether you want to hear it or not. they’re in power because of the overwhelming majority of Palestinians support them. Israel is trying to only target Hamas and their military, but it’s very difficult when Hamas uses the Palestine people as human shields and hides in their homes…
Have you not been paying attention to the news? The protests are literally disrupting normal kids from just wanting to go to school. USC cancelled graduation because of all this shit…at least Texas is nipping it before it causes any problems.
The police and admin are disrupting normal kids wanting to go to school and also wanting to see other kids be allowed to go to school without being bombed
Yeah, obviously the protesters should be off in a corner where they aren’t a nuisance or disturbance to anyone. I’m sure their protest would still be just as effective 🙄
This is the same state which said it was perfectly legal for them to seize border checkpoints from the federal government. They seem to be making “states rights” arguments all over the place. So, apparently we’re sliding backwards.
Can’t win in the United States…people are complaining that the cops aren’t doing shit about all these protests, and then when they do, people STILL complain. Whatever…
yeah bud, because it’s different people complaining. it’s a country with a lot of people who all have a lot of differing opinions. most places work like that actually.
DPS was one of various local and state law enforcement agencies that responded to the Robb Elementary shooting on May 24, 2022. Ninety-one DPS personnel were at the school when law enforcement waited over an hour before breaching the classroom where the gunman was.
Whenever I see things like this I think back to something Lewis Black once said back during the Occupy Wall Street protests. They had him on ABC or one of the major news stations and asked him what he thought about it. His answer was along the lines of, “When were the college kids ever wrong?”
Um, now? I mean, these “protestors” aren’t even remotely interested in what’s REALLY going on with the Israel/Palestine situation…they just want to protest from the comforts of their home here in the United States.
Those amendments are very selectively applied when it comes to any grassroots action that isn’t fully right-wing. There is essentially no protection to speak against the state if they want to target you.
Eh, a lot of people are fucking terrible at showing love, even to the ones they actually do love.
Either that or they just have their priorities mixed up. I wonder how many of them had attentive parents, but they thought doing a good job as a parent meant raising sons to be aggressive tough guys.
it’s indoctrination, which is strong in rural texas. the problem cannot be solved without a complete overhaul of the social landscape of america. conservatives need reeducation camps.
Should we beat and arrest the students or maybe sever ties with a nation committing war crimes? Better get those students and arrest record, looks good on job interviews.
Vast majority of protesters arrested don’t end up with any charges or a record, the police know this, but they still get their mugshot taken which gets posted online by right-wingers, doxxing them to potential political violence.
Last I was on Twitter a couple years ago there were antifascist pages that did that, the ones I followed were banned while the fascist ‘antifa watch’ pages I’ve seen are promoted. But I agree, Twitter won’t work for it anymore but we should have some kind of fascist watchlist.
I’ve thought about the deck of cards of terror suspects the US had, with higher members of Al Qaeda or whatever, we should have that for the top fascist politicians and war mongers. It should be well known the names and faces of the people pushing us off the cliff.
