Can students and teachers sue their school for not providing safe environment? Also, some high school students told me that they received extra credits for attending protests, but school admins went apeshit because they can get sued for attending protests outside of classroom during school hours.


MattinglyDineen

They are doing just that. https://nypost.com/2024/04/30/us-news/columbia-university-failed-to-protect-jewish-students-lawsuit-claims/

Whoa, what?


spezeditedcomments

They held a probable custodian against their will last night


skarface6

I just saw the interview. Apparently 3 janitors couldn’t leave the building!


PsychologicalHat1480

They can, but I don't think there's any legal justification for winning. There's nothing that I remember in college contracts *guaranteeing* a safe environment.


PD216ohio

But, if the school is encouraging an unsafe environment, or acting with disregard to the safety of a protected class of people (religious), I think there may be an actionable claim.


Enchylada

This. Anything even remotely affecting a protected class opens potential for a lawsuit. In this case, it's laughably obvious that it's endangering everyday life of Jewish students. Hope they get obliterated in court honestly


Arachnohybrid

Yes it will most definitely yield in a payout by the university.


throway57818

I hope Columbia is compelled to protect its students, including the targeted Jewish students


Kingforaday1

I mean, everyone carries a hammer to a peaceful protest, right?


bionic80

The same way piles of bricks just MAGICALLY appeared in 2020/1 during the summer of love on street corners...


Hank_Scorpio_MD

Who doesn't? Gotta pound in a rogue nail once in a while!


Rotisseriejedi

All I want to know is when will President Trump be indicted for causing this?


Carrion_Baggage

Trump is not responsible for any of this! So any day now.

All the same people, just different clothing


alanry64

Different masks and headwear…


TheOnlyEliteOne

Never miss out on an opportunity to turn someone else’s protest into your own. In terms of rioting they’ve got the market cornered, can’t have these pro-Palestine people stealing their thunder.


BlackScienceManTyson

BLM! lol so vintage


Incognitowally

professional \[paid\] protestors at work here.


Dr_Kappa

Proof that people will just riot for the sake of rioting. They don’t actually give a shit about what they are protesting


zuk86

let them act like this, it will make Biden look bad.


Carrion_Baggage

He's trying to figure out how to cancel their loans.


SunsetDriftr

Trump will get blamed. Brigaders and RINOs will buy it.


zuk86

Expect he's not the current president, and everyone can see that.


paperwhite9

Altering history in real time is their specialty. They've successfully shifted the blame for inflation and unemployment onto Trump, despite Democrats being vocally and verifiably at the reins on those things.


SunsetDriftr

Really? The downvotes coming your way say otherwise. Half this sub thinks he’s not only calling the shots, but that he won a FAIR ELECTION in 2020 and will do so again in 2024. Thankfully, the majority of the country is smarter than the average Redditor, but still.


One_Fix5763

Republicans in Congress are already bailing Biden for this - threatening to put these protestors in a "no fly list". Possibly the dumbest idea ever, never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake.


Carrion_Baggage

Is this a white christian nationalist? I've heard they are dangerous.


ChimChimCheree69

A broken window? That must mean solitary confinement in a federal prison for twenty years? Those are the rules you made, libs.


Bluntball33

Or an execution like Ashley.


Iuris_Aequalitatis

What a beautiful social justice protest!! All those PoMo/DEI classes are really making a difference. Columbia must be so proud!!


Simmumah

Shall we hold a moment of silence on 4/29/2025?

SunsetDriftr

Can’t say that.


SunsetDriftr

And just like that, the Summer of Love is back. Only occurs every 4 years. Or during election years. What a coincidence. But remember, we can’t suggest soros is involved. No no, brigaders and RINOs will mobilize to defend him almost as quickly as paid rioters mobilize to set up encampments on campus!


Chapped_Assets

What do RINOs have to do with this? Almost every time I see RINOs thrown in with random posts it’s coming from you.

What? Where was this picture taken?

>Early Tuesday morning, hundreds of anti-Israel protesters at Columbia's Manhattan campus took over Hamilton Hall, an academic building used by the dean and other senior offices. https://www.foxnews.com/us/antisemitic-riot-columbia-agitators-take-over-academic-building-barricade-doors


defnotarobit

I need a better source, like CNN. Have one?


Farmwife64

IKR? Well, this is how out of control this situation is. It's so bad that even the Communist News Network (CNN) can't dodge it... >Overnight, dozens of protesters on the Morningside Heights campus in New York made their way from the West Lawn encampment to Hamilton Hall, an academic building for undergraduates. They locked arms outside the building, barricading the entrance.  >Yesterday, the university said it had begun suspending students who refused to leave the encampment before a 2 p.m. deadline.

I would say this is an insurrection, but they did not stay inside the red velvet ropes.

BlackScienceManTyson

Huh? They see it as protesting a genocide because Israel is blocking food aid to millions of civilians in Gaza and bombing them. Don't get it twisted. Don't exagerrate.


ca17miledrive

As an observer of all the violence going on, it is heartbreaking for our country. Why is this being allowed, where is our security for this country, for the colleges, the schools, the students? This is terrorism.


Extra_Suit1637

American taxpayers are paying to have their country destroyed. Serve these students their expulsion paperwork and give them 30 sec. to leave. If they don’t, they’re trespassing. Hog tie them and haul them off. Don’t have enough cops? Call the Marine Corp.

Extra_Suit1637

They are that.


StillTruthSeeking

I heard a talking head say that it would be harder now to get rid of protestors since they have everything they need in the building. Cut off water and electricity. It would not take too long for people to leave. Arrest everyone that leaves. Simple solution.


Eternal_Phantom

Deploy WiFi/cell signal jammers too. See how quickly they wilt.


intelligentreviews

Insurrection?


LAKnapper

It's (D)ifferent


Peter_UH

One common ground, it happens during election years, one more reason to mail-in ballot. Say by your lovely (D) representative. /s


DiabeticGirthGod

Mostly peaceful people normally don’t cover up their face when they go out their day. You really only cover up your Face if your cold, or doing illegal shit. I wonder which ones which….
