In reply to the discussion: Live Updates: Protesters Take Over Building on Columbia Campus [View all]Lancero
(3,257 posts)37. Reminds me of a group of protestors that chained themselves up in a Lambo dealership.
I think it might have happened somewhere in Europe, but apparently the people who owned the dealership said "Fuck it, they chained themselves up, what are they going to do?" and left em overnight.
Came back in the morning to rather predictable results. The protestors, having marinated themselves overnight, complained because the dealership didn't try having them removed the night before.
Honestly, I think the above solution was great. Let them protest in peace. Wish we could do that a lot more often.

60's campus protesters were for the most part peaceful. Nor did they engage in hatespeech to harass Jews.

Is Columbia and Cornell doing this to appease their donors? This looks incredibly fishy
