I frequently contemplate moving since most other major U.S. cities offer more excitement. The high cost of starting a business has resulted in uninspiring chain restaurants, and our licensing system needs a major overhaul. Currently, Boston is too pricey for its offerings.

"The protesters have no shortage of to express their views. No one is threatening action against students who carry signs, hand out leaflets, write articles, post manifestos, hold events, show films, or request meetings with university leaders to make their case" write @sapinker…
@jessica4nh @carinemhajjar I always say this but for one of arguably the most innovative regions in the world, we fear change so much that it prevents us from realizing major improvements in our quality of life. Look at outdoor dining... fought for it for years, no one listened, now we can't get rid of it.

Boston’s Forever War On Fun "Loosen up. Let the people dance! Let them slurp spaghetti outside..! Keep public transportation open late enough to get the party people home." - @carinemhajjar bostonglobe.com/2024/04/29/opi…
For Palestinians and Israelis, this conflict is painful and complicated. For woke American students, it's a simple case of oppressor-oppressed — their flavor-of-the-month activist cause. My latest, no paywall! msn.com/en-us/news/us/…
Thanks Keith!
The Middle East is complicated, its history full of oppression, displacement, and death. But the Middle East is NOT complicated for the loudest NYU or Columbia student at these "pro-Palestine" rallies. It’s a cause that a small group of self-congratulatory students can champion…
Yeah Hezbollah loves acoustic hippies

The Middle East is complicated. But not for American protestors who cannot see past the oppressor-oppressed binary. Here’s all the crazy — and the productive — I saw at NYC’s campus protests: bostonglobe.com/2024/04/26/opi…

I agree with @1AMorey on this. But I think the aversion to these protests is less about the student’s right to say horrible things and more about their enthusiasm at doing so. They are now calling for free speech absolutism, but it's not a courtesy they'll extend those they…

It's very hard to get an accurate sense of what's happening on one campus, or at one protest, based on the one or two viral videos that happen to cross your feed. And different campuses and protests are different! To judge the tenor of things requires time and research.
"God is dead."--Nietzsche "Dog is dead."--Noem
Civil disobedience is, by definition, non-violent. Breaking and entering, vandalism, trespassing, and (per @ColumbiaSpec reporting) holding a maintenance worker hostage — is not "civil disobedience" and should be punished.
Occupying a campus building, blocking students from attending classes, and vandalizing property is not protected by the First Amendment, full stop. It’s illiberal. It’s illegal. And it should be punished.
I frequently contemplate moving since most other major U.S. cities offer more excitement. The high cost of starting a business has resulted in uninspiring chain restaurants, and our licensing system needs a major overhaul. Currently, Boston is too pricey for its offerings.
Boston's home...but it isn't my ideal location for a night out. Check out my latest on Boston's forever wars on fun: bostonglobe.com/2024/04/29/opi…
@berkie1 @carinemhajjar I bet I can take on at least 3 Puritan ghosts
@jessica4nh @carinemhajjar After two years of living in Salem... I don't mess with that sh**.
@berkie1 @carinemhajjar Boston’s buttoned-up vibe was one of the biggest shocks I experienced going there for college (and why I moved to NYC afterwards). Totally out of touch & nonsensical with the student and young professional demo that holds the city up. No happy hour is the best example of this!
@jessica4nh @carinemhajjar I always say this but for one of arguably the most innovative regions in the world, we fear change so much that it prevents us from realizing major improvements in our quality of life. Look at outdoor dining... fought for it for years, no one listened, now we can't get rid of it.
Boston’s Forever War On Fun "Loosen up. Let the people dance! Let them slurp spaghetti outside..! Keep public transportation open late enough to get the party people home." - @carinemhajjar bostonglobe.com/2024/04/29/opi…
Great to see a nuanced commentary on campus protests. 'Just imagine if schools instead hosted campus-wide conversations... Imagine if students were discussing the merits of a cease-fire, or the role of Hamas in civilian deaths, instead of screaming 'intifada:' @carinemhajjar
Woke students screaming genocide on college campuses doesn’t just hurt the Jewish students on campus. It trivializes Palestinian students’ great suffering into a virtue signal. My latest dispatch from the protests: bostonglobe.com/2024/04/26/opi…
At Emory University in Atlanta, economics professor @CarolineFohlin was attempting to protect students by asking Atlanta police officers “what are you doing?” when they violently arrest her and throw her to the ground.
Great piece by @carinemhajjar @BostonGlobe "Validated by the righteousness of fighting an 'oppressor,' these students find themselves above discourse — and above a more complete, albeit more complicated, understanding of the conflict." bostonglobe.com/2024/04/26/opi…
It's hard to understand why an economics professor showing concern for a student would be thrown to the ground and arrested. This is not an obvious way to defuse a crisis.
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
One of the metrics I use to know whether I’m helping defend speech in a principled and thoroughly non-partisan way, is whether I get repeatedly called both a right winger and a communist on the same day. By that measure, it’s another solid week in the books.
I’m pro supporting our greatest ally Israel 🇮🇱 and also Ukraine. 🇺🇦 Putin is a bad dude. Hamas are terrorists. Reagan would support both measures. We should also secure our southern border and have strong legal immigration. We are a nation of immigrants and we respect the…
Jury — it’s obvious from the jury selection that the Bragg trial should be moved. What person living in New York City could possibly be the juror that lets Trump off the hook and then have any kind of normal life without massive security. That’s the problem with such a trial…
