    I don't think there is anyway possible that gets congressional approval. Like you said, even surrounding muslim countries will not take them.

    I can't wait to see how these Muslim refugees react to having LGB and the other letters thrown in their collective well behaved and tolerant faces.

    How did they ever fit it in in between Hunter, violence in America, Trump’s martyrdom, and the immigration armageddon?

    When they cross the line into illegalities the police move in as witnessed at Columbia

    And what do you expect with those who get their world view off of Twitter

    Whats happening at Columbia is the result of the participation trophies.

    According to you ? Well, you're wrong.
    And I see you slipped in "terrorists" along with "terrorist supporters" to your false claim.

    "Terrorists ", "terrorist supporters", same difference since the pro-terrorist protestors are using terrorist tactics.

    I'm for it if they keep to criticizing Israel, and not all jews, and if they can protest without disrupting the rights of other students and staff. Clearly, some have not held to that standard, but I am not really sure what proportion. Light disruption is kind of on the line (being loud, being a bit in the way). People will just ignore you if you're not doing something disruptive or outrageous, but if you are disruptive and outrageous you violate others rights or give your cause a bad name. There's a balance to be struck.

    Is that not Fox’s daily agenda, just asking how they can squeeze in Columbia, interesting, not even a mention of similar events occurring in North Carolina or Texas

    If you don't watch Fox, then maybe you should visit their website before you comment on what they cover. Did CNN tell you that guns were found on the bigoted haters of Israel?

    I agree with what the council members wrote.

    Taxpayers shouldn’t pay for NYPD to ‘babysit unruly’ Columbia students, pols fume as cops asked to stay on guard

    Columbia University should open its checkbook if school leaders want the NYPD to stay on the Ivy League campus through May 17 and “babysit unruly students,” a bipartisan group of city pols fumed Wednesday.

    The elite institution’s beleaguered president, Minouche Shafik, drew the ire of the City Council’s Common Sense Caucus with her request that cops stay on campus until two days after commencement to ensure that another anti-Israel encampment doesn’t spring back up.

    “Columbia created this mess and Columbia – not New Yorkers – should pay to clean it up,” the nine council members, led by Queens Republican Joann Ariola, Minority Leader Joe Borelli (R-Staten Island) and Queen Democrat Bob Holden wrote in a scathing letter to university officials obtained by The Post.
    ..................
    The council members said that, “while we can all agree that these protestors should not be allowed to re-assemble and harass their fellow students, we believe taxpayers should not be forced to pay for a private institution’s use of significant NYPD resources.”

    “New York City has very real problems that must be prioritized,” the letter continued, adding, “Babysitting spoiled students, activist professors, and professional protestors on an Ivy League campus is not one of them.”

    Biden does not give a rip about laws. Once we have a critical number of Muslims, all hell will break loose.

    I do check out Fox on the radio, even pick up the NYP every now and then, for the Sports page, that is why I know their daily agenda, so predictable, and I don’t watch any infotainment channels, plus protesting against Israel’s actions in Gaza doesn’t mean you hate Israel

    Frat Boys for the Win! Refuse to let Old Glory touch the ground as the Pro-Hamas rioters, some on guest VISAs, try to dishonor our nation.

    Yesterday they were hollering at Coeds to "Show Us Your Boobs!" Today they are showing the mettle of next gen leaders.

    Does the truth hurt? Was the Civil Rights Act of 1968 overturned? The rioters are attacking people because of their religion and national origin. It would be ignorant to ignore that.

    Unless one can blame the attack on Trump supporters or Jews, it's okay to attack people.

    Ever wonder if the Bribed Joe's WH is coordinating with the Hamas rioters on our campus? Did you see that Bribed Joe's brother was collecting bribes for the Biden crime family from Qatari, who funds Hamas?

    Lol, you're out of your mind. Biden is as Pro Israel as it gets. I never have and never will vote for that loser. I'd rather Trump win, and I definitely am not a Trump fan.
    I'll be voting for either RFK or Jill Stein. Right now I am leaning towards Jill Stein, who seems to be the only one with a sane view on the conflict. She comes from a Jewish family, so maybe she can be someone that brings some reason back to the table.
