Please notice that the cops will do everything possible to stop protestors but cannot manage to stop school shooters. Because it’s not about protection. It never was. It’s about compliance.
Police attempt to push the crowd, arresting one. This is happening directly under the UT Tower. Went here for 4 years, never saw anything like this.

Using counterterrorism strategies against students protesting!
“Counterterrorism” NYPD forces are now arriving to Columbia campus
Tell me you have no Black friends without telling me.
Masked Columbia University students perform bizarre silent dance without music as they entertain the hundreds of Palestinian activists occupying the university campus.
My point is not to make you feel bad for me. I figured it out and am fine. My point is I’m one of many - so many like me graduated into a decimated economy and were dropped on our asses without a care. These institutions care about money, not students. We must force change
I earned my PhD 4 years ago. Not only did my uni take away my job and health insurance with no grace period during a pandemic, but they denied me govt-supplied pandemic funds because I was “no longer a student.” These institutions do not give a shit about any of us
