High time protesters paid for their actions

[@splice635]

It was against the law for them to be there. You guys really suck at journalism.

[@cluelesssss]

Which law is that exactly? Sharia?

[@lusttravel1247]

Yes! Yes! 🙌 I sure hope UT students pay attention if you plan to work in Texas…we pay attention to students like you all…we don’t want DEI woke babies…

[@lourdesvilar8515]

When Given an ORDER YOU MUST COMPLY. RESPECT! He teaches there? What kind of CREEPS are they employing? He Needs to be fired. What example is this to show the students? Specially from a sidewinding individual who disrespects authority! Universities are for LEARNING, leave your Politics out of our children's classrooms!

Look art the hypocrite claiming its scary to be a Muslim student on campus! Do these people have any conscience at all?

Yup she’s a regular on 6th street every weekend. Lives a white privilege lifestyle with all her white sorority sisters driving new cars that her parents bought her.

[@dalemcauley7065]

News MEDIA is the problem here. The police asked them to leave. Protesters did not . Protest all you want but do it in a peace full matter. Were is the money coming from to support this???

[@michaellopez5982]

No great loss! Teaches LIBERAL ARTS? A useless degree program that serves no useful purpose! You'll get more out of a high school woodshop or welding class.

Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?

He dosnt look very innocent to me, he looks quite aggressive. Mr Heyman (Hayman) I would stay out of it next time if there is a next time to me your behaviour was unprofessional, but if you are not employed by an institution then protest all you want and please remember you are not in your early 20s any more.
