The riot in Hong Kong was way more violent. They did it for an entire year until COVID and the security law started. And what started the protest was just an expedition law, there were no war crimes and mass graves involved. What the US Congress is trying to do is that they are also pushing a bill to shut the students up on the pretext of an overused term called "anti-Semitism". The term is weaponized to the point that it's becoming anti-democratic.

Limitations to speech protected under the First Amendment have always existed. For instance the First Amendment does not protect the right "Of students to make an obscene speech at a school-sponsored event" as per Bethel School District #43 v. Fraser, 478 U.S. 675 (1986), nor the right "to incite imminent lawless action" as per Brandenburg v. Ohio, 395 U.S. 444 (1969), both of which have occurred during the protests at Columbia. The First Amendment therefore does not protect the anti-Semitic speech which has unfortunately found its way into the university campus protests against the situation in Israel/Palestine.
