What kind of punishment should the college protesters receive?

When it comes to the college protesters there seems to be several different types:

People who just stand around and chant
People who harass, intimidate and assault Jews
People who pitch tents, build walls and take over property
People who vandalize buildings and statues with spray paint
People who occupy buildings
People who attack the police

Those people have violated college polices, they damaged property, they assaulted the police and refused to follow their orders.

There are various types of protesters; some are students, some are professors, some are college employees and some are outside agitators.

These protesters have disrupted school life, caused classes and final exams to be cancelled or delayed, and who knows what will happen at the graduation ceremonies.

They also made insane demands. They want colleges to open their investment portfolios to them and divest from anything associated with Israel along with the companies that do business with Israel, and that's on top of the vegan food they want delivered to them. Those who violated policies and/or the law are demanding amnesty.

So what, if anything, should the punishment be for the above acts? It's been said before and I'll say it again, if someone at one of these colleges misgendered someone there would be hell to pay.

To be honest, I'm not expecting the colleges or prosecutors to do much of anything and that will only result in getting more of what they tolerated.

 

Expel and deport to the country they are supporting. That's the only way to put a stop to it. Lessons not learned in blood are soon forgotten.

 

Aren’t a lot of them already being arrested at least?

 

DNC? I'm going with "Loan Forgiveness" of any type!

 

The big offenders, who defaced property and fought with the police, should be expelled. If they were foreign students, they should be expelled and deported.

None of them should get any loan forgiveness.

It would be great if "the worst of the worst" were forced to take Iran up its offer to give them a scholarship to Tehran University. Then they would find out how miserable it is to live under the system they advocate for the rest of us, especially if they are females.

 

Throw the book at em. And make sure it’s a heavy one. Like the Bible.

 

I think the same measurement that was used after January 6 should apply. Those that have broken serious laws cause property damage or hurt individuals should be identified and prosecuted.
Nothing should happen to those who stand around and chant or even those who harass.
People who assault or intimidate anyone should be treated appropriately.
Those who occupy buildings without violence should be removed.
Those who erect tents should be removed.
Those who significantly damage property should be prosecuted accordingly small penalties for spray paint large for more serious damage.
Those who attack police should be arrested and charged.

We have to be consistent in our enforcement of our laws and try as much as possible to sort out the crime and not be influenced by the message.

 

These college kids are the only ppl left defending freedom of speech. All the older generations, that have been brainwashed by Israeli run MSM, are throwing them under the bus because they know they'll die soon of old age.

 

In my opinion...

Full respect for their rights

Expulsion and prison.

Full respect for their rights!

Expulsion or suspension, depending on the gravity. Fines or Prison according to the law for the most grievous. Vandalism noted in their criminal record.

Full respect for their rights!

Expulsion and prison.

 

Trespassing on private property after being told to leave is not free speech.

Intimidating, harassing and assaulting people is not free speech.

Spray painting private property is not free speech.

Taking over buildings is not free speech.

 

Do you really think taking over buildings is within their rights?

 

I can go along with most of that. However, I do think some sort of suspension from school is warranted. The suspensions, depending on the severity of what the protester did, can range from the rest of the school semester to several years to a permanent lifetime ban.

 

Yes! So long as they do it peacefully. AND, of course, if they're students there. I saw outside groups do this kind of things posing as college students back in the day.

 

I'm talking about the protests in general. Sorry if that's off topic

 

Lol, what? These protestors are heroes.
Lock up every politician in DC before you lay a hand on these young champions of humanity and freedom.
Fire the school administrators who called in the police to shut the protests down.
The schools should honor the student's demands immediately.

 

That's just the first step. The next step is to punish them to the fullest extent of the law.

 

Peaceful protest should be allowed. Vandalism and violence should result in charges and being expelled.

 

Depends on how far they go. Vandalism and blocking people from going to class should be prosecuted, as should any physical attacks. I'm not too upset about pitching tents.

 

WOW....When J6 protestors.........

You literally just described J6, but you claim they were just peaceful protestors with grievance ?

 

So where do we send the J6r's ?

 

And you do not see any Irony in that post do you

 

I thought that just a "demonstration" ?

Unless done on Jan6th ? Did I get that right ?

No it is not....its "a peacefull march"....rigth ?

 

No protestor specific penalties need be applied.

Protestors who have broken the law, such as committing assault and battery or destruction of property, should be arrested, prosecuted, and, if found guilty in a court of law, sentenced appropriately.

Protestors who have transgressed school policies as they existed prior to October '23 should be penalized as provided in those policies. Schools can change policies in anticipation of future demonstrations, but they should not change policies just because they find this batch of protestors more objectionable than the previous ones.

 

Do you recall posting this earlier today?

 

Punishment may vary by country.
