If Columbia student protestors are terrorists, then they are terrorists protesting terrorism. From Branko Marcetic at jacobin.com:
An NYPD spokesperson waved a scholarly book about terrorism around on TV in an attempt to associate Columbia University protesters with terrorists. Well, we actually read it. The claim is as absurd as you might guess.
Following its brutal raid on the antiwar student protesters occupying Columbia University’s Hamilton Hall, the top brass of the New York Police Department (NYPD) appeared on right-wing cable network Newsmax with an alarming message for the country: the students responsible weren’t acting alone, but had been radicalized and taught “how to be a professional agitator, how to be a professional protester” by some unknown, malevolent force providing funding and training.
“These students were more than prepared,” observed cohost Katrina Szish.
“Extremely prepared,” stressed NYPD deputy commissioner Kaz Daughtry. He presented viewers the “serious, disturbing propaganda” they had found at Hamilton Hall as proof of this claim: a book, roughly A4 size, titled Terrorism: A Very Short Introduction.
“A book on terrorism,” said Daughtry, eyes wide with disbelief.
“Wow,” said Szish.
So when esteemed CPUSA (D) party member comrade commissar Holder, the wingman of the messiah, the one, took over Columbia (Long March) dean office with weapons was that a freedom fighter?
Lefty isn’t all that bright so don’t waste your time trying to explain double standards.
The noticing of 2020 “Summer of Love” riots with no clampdown has already happened.
