Current Events > Biden denounces takeover of campus building as protests escalate

(+) Yeah! (+)

I support these guys right to protest but some of them need to touch grass. Theres a video going round of a college student crying because the police arent letting humanitarian aid in to the protestors. Thats literally what she called it because they werent letting a pizza delivery through. Ill see if I can dig it out.

Have you heard the stuff the leadership of Israel as said ..does that logic go both ways?

"why can't these people protest quietly so we can ignore it and go about our business?" ~ everyone who doesn't understand protesting

No, it'd probably be better for all involved if you just left the topic.

God forbid a window gets broken though.

Storming a building and breaking property is not shining move to do.

All its doing is asking for the authorities to get involved, and providing low hanging fruit for those to vilify your entire cause.

It's also insane to act surprised when the authorities get involved, after you start damaging property or storming into property you were told to leave.

Condemnation of how these people are deciding to shoot themselves in the foot in what they call protesting =/= all protesting is bad.

Speaking of people shooting themselves in the foot, biden is doing a great job of blowing away both legs of his presidential campaign by supporting genocide. Oh, but you have a million excuses for why supporting genocide is fine and would rather lecture people on how to protest properly.

Your argument is basically demonstrating you don't know how to protest effectively to begin with. You are misconstrueding "Hey, how about not destroying property so the protest doesn't draw in the wrong attention like you know, the authorities. For you to then act surprised destroying of property tends to bring in the authorities to forcefully stop it" to....... "all protests are bad."

All they are doing by storming the building and breaking property is providing low hanging fruit for Newsmax, Fox and the likes to point at them every time Jan6ers are brought up.

What you are protesting becomes background noise, because to no surprise the new topic of discussion becomes about the obvious of the authorities being called to shut it down and violent protestors not cooperating.

The message of the protest gets lost and tends to resonate more with those who already supported it. Resonating with those who already support and getting bad attention by those who dont support your methods, is not winning over new people. You also may not like hearing this, it also hurt those who support your cause.

This is the worst type of liberal, white moderate method policing. If this causes someone to lose the message of the protest and to stop caring about genocide, that's a problem with that person's values, not the protesters.

Ive seen infinitely more people this morning talking about how horrific it is that the police (and the counter protestors at UCLA) were the real violent forces last night. Which is great. It's gotten some people talking about it.

People sitting in their mommy's basement telling protestors how to protest is pretty fucking funny. Disregard the fact that many of these kids have spoken to previous protestors from the Vietnam War protests to the South African protests to the Iraq/Iran War protests. And yet these basement dwellers still talk shit about these kids echoing the same bullshit people on the wrong side of history said during those protests in the past.

Projecting much?

Who are you talking about specifically. Im for the protestors. But they can do better by not scoring own goals like the one I posted.
