so the Jew should get arrested for walking through a protest..interesting take
Sorry, there is no clean way to remove Hamas without killing civilians. War ain’t perfect and the pro-Palestine folks amplify any little mistake by Israel (while being silent on Hamas). And more times than not it’s fake or highly edited video that the far left gobbles up. Israel’s response is no different than any other country would be, only difference is they are perceived to be white so the usual suspects cry about it.
Agreed but common sense also has to apply. Now this kid should not be arrested but I do question his judgment or intentions here.
why are you questioning his judgment and not the thousands of protestors across the country that has effected lives of many jews and other students
interesting to note
imagine you didnt have a graduation in 2020 because blue state governors shut your state down and then having your moment graduating ruined in 2024 by these people
He'll probably apply to a dozen schools. It's stories like yours that I find chilling. You'd think those accomplishments would get your son into a top 20 school easily.
My son is also going to apply to UNC, BC, Emory, Vandy, ND (gasp) and a couple of safeties. I honestly don't think we'll apply to an Ivy unless there's football "recruitment". I guess we'll see how the fall goes.
What it has to do with is this interaction where I stated Massachusetts law might considered what that man was trying to do a criminal act , in a reply to another person.. You really need to look past your own point of view and understand the USA has laws to protect the people you don't like. Not just the ones you like

i love how people keep going out of their way to make the pro Hamas anti Israel protesters feel special and protected
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not everyone who sympathize with what the protesters are trying to do are pro Hamas.
Some consider Hamas the type of scum that needs to be destroyed .
But also realize that Israel has been treating Palestinians living under their control poorly and want hat stopped.
Unless Israel starts treating Palestinians fairly destroying Hamas will not stop terrorist attacks by other terrorist groups .
Addressing the root of the problem by agreeing to a two state solution will take away
the Israeli haters best issue that helps terrorist orginazations claim they are fighting for the Palestinian people against their Israli oppressor .
Terrorisn has been part of the Palestine/Isreal landscape since Jewish terrorists started bombing the British trying to force them out of Palestine so the State of Isreal could be formed so all of the Jewish prople all over the world could come to a Jewisn Nation and live in their Bibical home if they so desired
Israel has the right to exsist, but the State of Palestine needs that shame right in order to finnaly have a good chance to bring peact to the mideast that has been full of violence even before the modern Nation of Isreal was formed.
Hate on both sides is keeping people from working on a fair and balenced solution .
That hate also makes some look atPalistianen people's rights comments as support for Hamas when it's not.
Compassion for people shouldn't be misconscrewd as supporting a terrorist group.
That's what you and some others are doing
Twitterings don't match your hypothetical ...
Not sure what’s eye opening. My wife and son loved the UNC campus. UNC refer to themselves as the oldest state university, although Rutgers at 1766 was older but I guess it was Queens college at the time. He liked the idea of being out of state, the campus is old and relatively contained, certainly when compared to Rutgers. He felt the business school was a little better academically than Rutgers, although UNC very rarely does direct admits to the business school. He is just completing his first year, so when he was deciding Rutgers had not made the move up in the us news rankings yet so I think UNC’s relative strength swayed his decision a bit.
I like the dorm setup at Rutgers, (at least when I was at Rutgers in 85) compared to the UNC suite setup, it seemed much easier to meet people. But he is in a business fraternity and has made many contacts and has an internship this year as a Freshman. You go in with a lot of “street cred” when you are an out of stater since they have a relatively low OOS acceptance rate. They are a very sports focused school, which was much different than my time on the banks, maybe not as much now. Franklin street was pretty cool. Football, basketball and baseball facilities right on campus, although the gyms are incredibly disappointing. Like I said, he loves it and is doing well, so it seems to be the right choice for him.
Good luck with the search,
You going to question families of those graduating before they get tickets? And some of those protesting were doing so at their own graduation. About the only real question is what to do when the protest starts. Or not having the ceremony.
Ohio State had a mishap.

I also wonder how many civilians we BBQ'd during the Vietnam War with those fuel explosive bombs? War ain't pretty!
I actually picked RU over UNC. I was looking for a change and get out of the south. Grass is always greener on the other side.

He doesn't. The cult is claiming Holocaust survivor George Soros is pro-Hamas as are the many proudly Jewish protesters.
Which are the countries that killed their own hostages, murdered aid workers, and opened fire on people queing for food all while the person ordering these attacks was under criminal indictment and allowed funding to flow to the group he claimed he was trying to eliminate?

I love protests but you cannot allow bad behavior under the guise of protesting. She should have requested NYC police assistance and their guidance and had graduation
You called to arrest peaceful protesters but claim a kid directing monkey noises at an African American woman has "freedom of movement"
Interesting, and wholly unsurprising- to note.
Thanks for posting this. Now I can stop debating with myself as to whether or not to post something along those lines. Not sure I could come up with as good a summary.
Thanks again.
My daughter had one A- and was valedictorian of her class, all the other bells and whistles AND was a recruited D1 athlete that didn’t get into her top choice after admissions doing a soft read on her prior to being offered. This schools class had 6 of their 7 recruits not admitted.
Where did she end up going? Did she end up playing a sport? My son has 2 B+ in AP classes on his transcript but the rest are straight A's so on a weighted basis it's way above a 4.0 at an excellent HS. It's nuts....
