    So proud of our students! Those who would stop free speech have disgraced those who died to preserve that right!

      Were the protests for those who died because of the border crisis?Or for all the homeless and homeless vets?The majority of these people cant even point out were Palatine is in a map,Let alone educated on this conflict at all,But i guess its the Liberal and Progressive thing to protest support for a terrorist organization that has chanted death to America and kills homosexuals,and hates Jews.

    Psalm 83
    New King James Version
    Prayer to Frustrate Conspiracy Against Israel
    A Song. A Psalm of Asaph.
    83 Do not keep silent, O God!
    Do not hold Your peace,
    And do not be still, O God!
    2 For behold, Your enemies make a [a]tumult;
    And those who hate You have [b]lifted up their head.
    3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people,
    And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.
    4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation,
    That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”
    5 For they have consulted together with one [c]consent;
    They [d]form a confederacy against You:
    6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites;
    Moab and the Hagrites;
    7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek;
    Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
    8 Assyria also has joined with them;
    They have helped the children of Lot. Selah
    9 Deal with them as with Midian,
    As with Sisera,
    As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon,
    10 Who perished at En Dor,
    Who became as refuse on the earth.
    11 Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb,
    Yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
    12 Who said, “Let us take for ourselves
    The pastures of God for a possession.”
    13 O my God, make them like the whirling dust,
    Like the chaff before the wind!
    14 As the fire burns the woods,
    And as the flame sets the mountains on fire,
    15 So pursue them with Your tempest,
    And frighten them with Your storm.
    16 Fill their faces with shame,
    That they may seek Your name, O Lord.
    17 Let them be [e]confounded and dismayed forever;
    Yes, let them be put to shame and perish,
    18 That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord,
    Are the Most High over all the earth.

    Back in the Vietnam War era, students were also "passionate" about certain political causes. Unfortunately, their passion often triumphed over logic and common sense - resulting in counterproductive behavior. Fast-forward to today and we see the same phenomenon playing out. The cause de jour changes but human nature doesn't.

    “It’s quiet at Berkeley.” Oh don’t worry, it won’t be long before these losers will get obnoxious and start making antisemitic statements. It’s happened before at Cal and will happen again very soon. Protesting is fine, but making antisemitic statements and harassing Jews who also protest and disagree is not okay. And that has happened several times already. Unfortunately the goon squad is on the way I’m sure.
