A huge crowd of faculty members who teach at Columbia University in New York held a mass walk-out on Monday afternoon to protest the institution having called police to arrest students at a pro-Palestinian encampment protest last week. Hundreds of members of the teaching cohort at Columbia walked out in solidarity with the students who were arrested by the New York police department last week and also suspended by the university. The solidarity protest came as students put protest tents back up in the middle of campus on Monday after they were torn down last week when more than 100 arrests were made.

I think it is time to take away the Tax Exempt Status from these Universities. I attended one which was top 5 in endowments, yet have never paid taxes. I also contributed to their general fund. However, I now believe that it time to change that for these political organizations.

Take away all of these University’s Tax Exempt Status. They are profitable but are political organizations.

Just close down NYU & Columbia, bulldoze the buildings, and then salt the earth to make sure neither ever arises from the ruins again.

The cops treated those attacking them with kid gloves. I’m sure all were released within minutes of arriving at the police station and all charges against them will be dropped by the DA or dismissed by a judge.

Or, do we have sob stories from the poor oppressed students this morning of having to spend the night in jail just like the criminals they are?

I think a lot of alumni dismissed campus political hijinks as youthful excess. The Hitlerjugende were the most ardent Nazis. Sometimes youthful excess kills.
