#NYPD #ColumbiaUniversity #protest
This is criminal. This is not a protest.
Agree, it went beyond a protest. This is what HλMλS orchestrated, they hired organizers and brought in people other than students.
This is senseless! This world! This world! Praying for God’s people! 🙏
These are supposed to be the top educated students from this generation.
Exactly, the are leading the way to freeing Palestine a the constitution while you criticize.
My dog was smarter…then half these brats nowadays…
@@Trailershift don’t insult your dog, it knows the difference between men and women. 80% is more accurate. rip doggie 🐶
@@carmenvelez3327 you achieve that by vandalizing a building? You must be from this generation, or maybe a proud parent.
Adults need to start adulting. Or we in serious trouble. Teachers need to start TEACHING. NOT ALL DAY THERAPY SESSIONS.
I’m Vreek. Unfir, we are accustomed with such mentality here since… ever. Schools, universities, libraries, town halls etc. are occupied by some leftists once or twice per year in every major city.
Free North America from AIPAC and Israel.
Free constitution and 1rst amendment.
Trespassing and destruction of property isn’t protected by the 1rst amendment.
The constitution is a joke.
This doesn’t make me more sympathetic to their cause in the slightest. Entitled rich kids who wouldn’t last a day in Hamas’ Gaza.
You are so right.
🎯
Yes, how do they square this with, say, how women’s rights would be in a nation of Palestine. They wouldn’t be, that’s how.
So much for peaceful protests. 😠😠
No tax money to this university… let them pay for thier own policies…
In real democracy it’s the taxpayers who should decide if or not to give funding to universities. That said, why not help students achieve their goals. Imagine if we don’t help universities. We will be hurting the many young people who I feel should have a better chance of life, then they would elsewhere. As for their policies, they need to keep into account in history, it’s usually the young people who go to war as puppets for older puppet masters. The age when the forebrain is fully developed is about 25 years old. Brain washing really does exist and it is easy to dupe many people because of the way humans brains think. Although they did this, we must forgive. Later on in life, I only hope that they get to rhe realization of not being controlled by a movement or by individuals with destructive puppetry motives. Emancipate yourself from mental slavery. Only yourself can free your mind. Don’t be a slave to my ideas or to other people’s ideas.
The whole point is that colombia was using its money to fund pro Israeli groups, and likely they funded columbia and other institutions as well…
They are no better than the people they are protesting against👌👌👌
Jail
There just peaceful protesters
More damage than Jan.6 😂
Nope, January 6 had deaths! 🤔
Trump is back, so are the riot squads. Prepare for 4 years of entertainment.
Expect a big tuition increase next year to pay for the damages.
A woman protestor got shot dead for doing that in DC
Stop calling them protestors, protestors don’t cause violence or damage. Smh
This is what happens when entitled brats throw a temper tantrum.
I feel like, when our parents were protesting for their actual civil rights.. they weren’t trying to destroy the facilities that they would eventually hope to occupy.
You feel like?
I was one of those Boomer protesters. Yes, things got torn up on occasion. Sometimes passions ran pretty hot, especially after Kent State.
@thomasbell7033 But then you put on your big-boy underwear and grew up.
These are not your parents.
@@thomasbell7033this seems mild compared to those days. They’ll have volunteers move the furniture back in place, and insurance will pay for the broken glass.
sooooo who really creayed that damage!??!?!?! likely NYPD themselves 💩🙈 #creayed
All students should be suspended and also pay for the damages .
‘Peaceful’ Protest or straight up vandalism? Hmm… 🤔
So that damage and piles of chairs is from the Hogs. Grow up NBCnarks
😮
Ahh the much talked about liberal peaceful protests
You are probably one of those who promoted the dishonest claim that BLM “burnt cities to the ground.”
Who pays for the clean-up?? The taxpayers.
Columbia is a private university. It doesn’t receive taxpayer money.
We have a right to peaceful assemble not turn into a destructive mob. Stop sending your kids and money to these indoctrination camps.
This is wrong, but what they did not do is attempt to overthrow a legitimate democratic election and the will of American voters.
This people must be suspended and put in jail
Suspended from what? You think these were students?
@@master-oppressorYes, they were. Put away your conspiratorial thinking.
@thomasbell7033 Okay, once they’re booked, you’ll see.
Looks like Gaza now
What happened? Did Trump lose another vote?
Yawn.
Right wing activists at work
What?
This was done by out siders . 😮😢
And easily influenced brats.
Worse than Jan 6 ! 😢
Never would have happen under Trump .😊
Every thing is falling apart under Biden administration . Go figure.😮
All or most of these issues will be left for Trump to clean up . Little to nothing will be resolved before dementia Joe leaves office in 6 months . 😮😢
It looks more disarranged than “damaged”.
Did you see all the smashed windows?
Policemen show up after everyone left😮😮😮😮
What happens if you corner a peaceful raccoon? Peaceful protestors confronted with violent American law enforcement.
How disapointing to see the lack of disrespect it is mind blowing. Sad day for higher education.
Are you surprised? Why?
Folks should watch Democracy Now. Much more thorough and nuanced vs. NBC’s hyperbolic coverage.
You must be drunk to mentioned that useless channel that spew nonsense news
How quick you are to condemn the students without the facts. How much pain and damage was done by the police and the administration?
Look at all damages. That’s fact.
You are the problem you enabler
Nypd did how much of that?
Just imagine if they would’ve handled this before the destruction. Instead of letting it happen just for a spectical. The moment the first violent act happened shut it down, it’s no longer a peaceful protest
I’m not sure what these students are doing? Why are they destroying the school’s property? This is not protesting!!!! It’s an act of violence!!!
if they were smart they wouldnt need *MORE* schooling……
both fortunately and unfortunately for us they are not. unfortunately because keeping these 🌈hipsters alive has only weakened us as a whole but fortunately cause id they were smart and had one atom of strength then the🌈 would really be a problem
I think the phrase is “common vandalism.”
J6 did less and people still in jail. This too looks like an insurrection not a protest. Where are the arrests?
Your government is allowing this to happen destroying your schools
Now, this is horrible and sad.
Next stop the US Supreme Court! If these students can destroy their own university, imagine what chaos they can create over there. I am just kidding, if course. This is so wrong.
Yikes can someone tell me exactly what this accomplished??
When you can’t fight your cause? in the country that you’re fighting for.. you don’t have a cause, you have a problem!!
Mostly peaceful protest😂
Debería estar en cárcel for el daño causado los muebles no tienen la culpa son parte de su útil escolar h😮😢
Criminals
Protest, or (islamic) Rampage?
What if the damage was done by police
Rioters* not protestors
Everyone blaming the students and not the heavy handed tactics of the police here is absolutely hilarious. Ye all are proper fascists.
These people are not students I don’t know why you people think so
Who thinks the invasion and destructive activity may have involved “agents provocateurs?”
Oh ok i get it. They indulged in violence to get peace! Oh didn’t Hamas try the same thing last year?
The police did all that damage in the process of arresting peaceful students protesting genocide? Completely unnecessary.
Shades of the Capitol… mindless idiots bent on destruction. I would imagine a lot of these people are not students at all, but instigators from off campus. Looks like a Trump mob all over again.
Peaceful Protest??? Doen’t look like it. If anything it makes the point ot the opposit.
most ironic thing is republicans outraged by THIS lol
Tell me again how the liberals break laws, and Republicans enter the conversation.
You are genuinely brainwashed.
Every person that was in there should be charged and thrown in jail. But they want do it because its NY.
Aahhh another one of those peaceful riots its like the summer of love all over again only blm can’t collect the big bucks this time move over you’ve been replaced
Wow way out of control!
The furniture doesn’t look broken, just seems like it was used as barricades. The only damage I see is the broken glass. But maybe there’s more than what’s shown here? 🤔
Really looks more like they was protesting climate change and garbage dumps
When people align with religion of peace,
Children of Columbia, you are being used by communists and marxists.
