    Things such as this happened in the 1960's and 1970's.
    We survived!

    How much do you want to bet that the pro terrorist thugs who threw bottles at cops and smashed a cop in the head with a chair get far, far less than 1/6 treatment?

    Angry protesters at NYU anti-Israel demonstration pelt NYPD officers with bottles, bash cop’s helmet with chair

    Angry protesters at NYU’s anti-Israel demonstration pelted NYPD officers with bottles as they raided the demonstration late Monday – with someone even bashing a cop’s helmet with a chair, a top department official said.

    Props to these students. Stand strong against the senseless slaughter our nation is supporting. I am proud of them. True Americans, exercising their right to free speech to highlight the horrible injustices being inflicted on innocents in less fortunate parts of the world.

    Other than causing misery to people, what impact are they making on Israel’s military decisions? None.

    They are bringing attention to the evil our government is supporting. It is the biggest impact that can be made. It is huge.

    The only evil happened on oct7. When HAMAS was elected in the first place, THAT was evil. Palestinians voted for terrorists to lead them and this is the result.

    Israelis voted for a terrorist to lead them as well. That doesn’t justify the slaughter of innocents, on either side.

    All of that did not happen overnight.
    Who do you think they were protecting in the 1906's and 1970's?

    Considering who did the rioting and protesting back in the 60's and 70's and who they are and where the country is today!

    Maybe survived is a bit to strong a claim.. More like survived but severely crippled..

    Rioters should be jailed and tried as domestic terrorists! Their hatred against the Jewish community is no different than that of Hitler's Germany.

    Comparing 1st world govts to HAMAS means your education failed you. If Israel REALLY wanted a genocide it would've happened a long time ago and it would be finished in a week. When one side is fighting a war using human shields & no uniforms, there is no "war. You can't fight that in any sort of human way, because those you're fighting aren't fighting with humanity. They're using tactics that don't account for humanity, because they don't care. Its the 1st world vs 3rd world animals. Innocent people don't CHEER Oct7th, nor do they vote in terrorists, toss LGBT people off roofs or want ALL JEWS DEAD...sorry!

    So, what you are saying is that the IDF has given up their humanity by committing such horrendous actions against the innocent in Palestine. So, they are no better than the ones they pretend to be superior to. And add to that that the reason Hamas became inhumane is due to the inhumane treatment at the hands of Israelis. Either way you slice it, the Israeli government is at the root of the problem.

    I can imagine the 'progressive' media titles if Sahar Tartak from the quoted article was Black:
    "Black student almost lynched by racist Trump supporters in Ivy League.
    As usual police did nothing to protect Black student!
    ".

    I think in the US everyone has a right to be racist, anti semi or poorly educated.
    Pro Hamas demonstrations in Harvard started BEFORE Israel responded to Oct 7, where Hamas murdered about 1000 civilians, raped Israeli women and kidnap hostages:
    https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2023/10/15/gaza-protest-harvard/

    Harvard student and students in all American others universities don't have to give a flying f*** to the fact that Hamas committed genocide: murders, rapes and kidnappings or to care about Jewish hostages, and what Hamas are doing to them.
    If students don't break campus rules - they have the right to demonstrate and donors have the right not support universities they don't like.
    Anyway, as Claudine Gay already proved - if depends on context is calling for genocide of Jews is harassment.

    Yes of course.... It was the bad orange man in collaboration with Bigfoot and the bat boy :rolleyes:
    Ludacris post fail and obvious thread jacking..... At least wait for someone to make a few posts on topic first.

    WRONG! Again...
    Sadly it's becoming the Rule (and not the exception)...:bored:
    That said, certain people should be more aware of that entire "think before they hit submit" thing...
    Nothing personal, of course. Just a general observation.
    And, Btw--There was no "threadjack", I merely answered the question in a straightforward honest way.....
    It is undenible that Trump's election in 2016 (the most egregious mistake in Electoral history) led to an unseemly rise in poltical incivility..
    ^That is completely indisputable...
    New poll: 70% of Americans think civility has gotten worse since Trump took office
    Politics Jul 3, 2017 5:00 AM EDT
    Americans broadly believe their country’s political tone has become less civil since Donald Trump was elected president
