Is this the good kind of authoritarianism?
quote:

The U.S. Justice Department is examining whether student protests at Columbia University over the Gaza war violated federal terrorism laws, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said on Friday.

Blanche said the investigation is also looking into civil rights violations tied to the demonstrations that roiled the New York campus last year.

Blanche, the Justice Department's second-highest ranking official, said the investigation was part of President Donald Trump administration's "mission to end antisemitism in this country."

"We are also looking at whether Columbia's handling of earlier incidents violated civil rights laws and included terrorist crimes," Blanche said. "This is long overdue."

Blanche added that federal law enforcement had executed a search warrant on Thursday night as part of a separate probe into whether Columbia University harbored undocumented immigrants on its campus.

Well like has been mentioned before, there's a huge difference between peaceful protests and radical anarchist take overs of public or private buildings, threats, intimidation, etc. The left can scream like the 4 year olds that they are, but people aren't buying the bullschiff anymore.

Do you not want the law to apply to students?

This is a waste of time and probably overreach, but whatever.

So in your perfect world Bunkie, guests in our country can openly advocate for a terrorist organization while harassing and intimidating US citizen students?

The poor little Israelis. We must protect them (and give them billions).

Those mean college kids could disrupt the Zion grift.

Funny how everyone loved the Brazilian Buttfricker when he was railing against Democrats and their social media censorship. All of a sudden we love the government policing speech we disagree with.

Kudos to you for being intellectually honest, Bunk

You Woke Right Bros taking the mantle for literal fricking retards who support designated terrorists raping and burning alive children is certainly a take.

What is your end game?

Absolutely ridiculous. Anyone who believes those college protests were in support of Hamas is being hoodwinked by people who want to cause a Middle East conflict that will get us knee deep in it. We need cooler heads to prevail. The protestors are more right in the big picture than many of those in power over our foreign policy. We need peace and we need the Palestinian state with broad normalization of relations between the majority Muslim nations and Israel. Our fight is in the Pacific. We need Europe and Middle East to stop being a thorn in our arse.

This would be a perfect time to make an example out of these rogue universities! Investigate the hell out of Columbia University and if it’s sponsored terrorism, shut the fricking college down!

This board would support universal healthcare if Trump introduced it. I agree with my good mate, Bunk. This is a waste of time at best.

If it was just speech, you'd have a point. Why can't any of you ever admit that it involved violence, assault, hostages, and vandalism?

He's just following his Israel hate. I don't like Israel either, but that doesn't mean I think foreign visitors should be allowed to attack citizens in the name of free speech.

This whole defense of the terrorist is retarded. How does the CIA overthrow a government? It organizes protests. We all know that. So why would you ever think that letting foreigners protest in our country be a good thing or even a protected right? A foreigner overthrowing a government is an invasion. Citizens overthrowing a government is a revolution. There's a reason citizens get the first amendment. You're selling your country out so you can feel righteous.

With your logic, China should be able to send 100k people here as "students" to protest and create disruptions. And we should be happy and proud about it.

Why do people insist on virtue signaling for their own demise? Leftists believe in diversity so much they are willing to let their daughters be raped. You people believe in "absolute" free speech so much that you're willing to let avowed terrorists roam free and create havoc, even after they've committed violent acts. It's insane behavior. Conservatives here easily recognize it in the left, but take pride in not recognizing it in themselves.

Taking over a school isn’t terrorism to you?

As of today bleedingheart libtards like Bunk are one of the biggest problems we have in trying to act like the voice of fairness while actually being on the side of terrorists and their sympathizers.
