It's an insurrection.
The double Standard

It’s easy to say “property isn’t sacred” when you’ve never paid for anything in your life!

[mikedavis]

Absolutely ridiculous. Who called these protests "peaceful"? Stand up and raise your hand so you can look foolish again.

[MegaSunshineyday]

I’m pro free speech, but, this isn’t ok. Making demands and being violent if you don’t get your way feels more like terrorism. Why isn’t the university shutting this down. There is more than one perspective on an issue. The violence here isn’t creating a dialogue. It’s coercive. CSULA needs to shut this down.

[mnamber]

These universities allowed this to escalate.

[lilyfromafar]

Who is funding these terrorist groups ? That’s the real question.

Arrest, expel, jail, deport, repeat

Hey Vera- it’s not your university- FYI if you refuse to let some leave an area it’s kidnapping. Oh yea, we are not violent but we are destructive.

[justanothaYTaccount]

“Our” money? That person never paid a dollar in taxes guaranteed

[larryrhodes]

Why are our governments and police allowing this mayhem and destruction, WHY???

[chervang]

Repair bill should be sent to the “Peace Organizers”.

[BabaYaga-yhyi]

If these are NOT domestic terrorists, who are?

[junkboxxxxxx]

Maybe now you get the idea that this whole Palestine idea is crap.

[francespelletier]

They should be arrested and made to pay for all the damage they've done! This makes no sense! What have they gained by damaging someone else's property? They need to grow up and stop their foolishness!

[NomeCultJoe]

Still calling them "students" and "protesters" KTLA? What's your underlying motive?

[alvas]

That is kidnapping and they should be prosecuted also for the damages they caused. Where is the police ??

[MouthWar]

I wonder how this will impact tuition fees when in the future….

[revelationakagoldeneagle]

They held hostages!!!
Kidnapping charges should apply...
Any Arrests???
I call BS

[Digital-Cajun]

Oh, they want people hurt.... and they're GONNA start hurting people.

[PoliticalSins]

Breaking the property of others and causing harm only silences your message in the echo of shattered trust, for true understanding arises from respect, not destruction.🙃
