Quite the conundrum for Columbia to punish these students for saying what their professors have taught them.

Free plane tickets to the Middle East.

Its to bad the public schools dont teach critical thinking anymore . Because if they did these individual people would remember that there are different sides to a story. And in order to get a better understanding of whats going on to get to the truth. Its important to listen to all sides because lies travel fast why in order to hook the simpleton

The students should be suspended and stopped any funding they get from the country

[moewadhawa]

These students should cut their ties with terrorists

Why do we care so much when we have school shootings, the migrant situation, homelessness, starvation, fentanyl epidemic . The list goes on and for us to really help other we need to fix ourselves 😂 it’s a joke out here now days!

That president needs to FIRE those professors who preach hate.

When I was in college, I was too busy going to classes, studying and partying to have time for this. I didn't have time for this. While protesting is interesting it doesn't affect anything on a national level. It has doesn't affect policy or laws. Politicians, lawyers and policy advisors do.

If college students want to protest, focus on specific issues within your own school. Not on national or international policy which you can't affect and do not understand.

If you vote Democrat in November, you are actively endorsing this behavior.

I am so sick of these people and their ideology.

[EvanAndHell]

The people fight while the politicians and their corporations make money off both sides of hate.

I'm just curious as to what they teach in college nowadays because it's definitely not common sense

Some network exective: "Yeah, we could get a news anchor who can look straight... but wouldn't it be hilarious to get a guy who is cross-eyed?!?!"

I appreciate that network exec and his choices.

That’s not public property. Shut it down!
