    As I watch the demonstrations by the "students" at many universities I ask myself who would want to be anywhere near such behavior. Even if I was strongly in favor of Hamas or strongly in favor of Israel, I would not go anywhere near such behavior. I would rather be fishing, watching a movie, even working at a job. These people need to get a life. They have to weak minded individuals.

    There's money to be made in Big Hatred.

    Notorious anti-Israel protester Lisa Fithian, paid $300 a day to teach activists, spotted among Columbia rioters

    A notorious professional protester with past ties to multiple controversial anti-Israel efforts was spotted among the rioters who broke into a Columbia University building and occupied it this week, according to police.

    Lisa Fithian, 63, was captured in footage taken outside Hamilton Hall — an academic building on the Ivy League’s Morningside Heights campus that protesters, some of them masked, stormed the around 12:30 a.m. on Tuesday.

    A lifelong agitator, Fithian in the mid-2010s was raking in $300 per day training unions and other activist groups in the basics of demonstration and disruption, Mother Jones reported in 2012.

    Agreed. Whether it was BLM rioters, Capitol rioters or these college riots. All are very weak minded individuals. Glad you agree.
