The NYPD and the mayor's office claim to know who the outside agitators are. Why aren't they telling the faculty and students, for their own safety? Why not arm our students with information first, before going in with riot gear? There are many good, well-intentioned kids there.

@ProfessorShaw Absolutely correct. I will also hold responsible the armchair pundits screaming "do something" at university administrators they've decided are insufficiently tough. The most important value should be public safety.

@ProfessorShaw That's what I'm saying. I keep reading about non-students being arrested. Who is paying these people to disrupt American higher education, and stoke anti-semitism in the US? I have my guesses.

@ProfessorShaw @MollyJongFast I think that ship sailed when they broke into a building and refused to let other students use it.

@ProfessorShaw @MollyJongFast That makes too much sense.

@ProfessorShaw @MollyJongFast A little late for that. Team hms should not be rewarded

@ProfessorShaw @MollyJongFast You are absolutely right.

@ProfessorShaw Police are not the solution, in fact, they are often the problem.

@ProfessorShaw @MollyJongFast

@ProfessorShaw @MollyJongFast You would think that would be their role, but they don't have that tool in their tool box.

@ProfessorShaw @MollyJongFast I take the @MollyJongFast retweet here as tardy recognition that Joe, Tony, and Jake, fellow travelers with AIPAC, have effed this up beyond all recognition, and that we're transported back to 1968. "Oh, it's only two percent of young people who care about Gaza," says Molly.

@ProfessorShaw @PoliticusSarah Encampment cleared, 72 arrests made at pro-Palestinian protest at Arizona State University Officials said about 80% of those arrested were not ASU students, faculty or staff.

@ProfessorShaw @MollyJongFast How do you think we got here? (I don't consider Mike Flynn and Bannon as domestic only).

@ProfessorShaw nope!

@ProfessorShaw @MollyJongFast They didn’t buy all that gear for yucks

@ProfessorShaw @MollyJongFast No.

@ProfessorShaw Neville Roy Singham

@ProfessorShaw Depends on the numbers. 80% of those arrested on Arizona State University campus did not belong there. They were not students, faculty, or staff. The WTO rioters in Seattle? Most were not from Washington state.

@ProfessorShaw Bring suspects in for questioning and ask them who won the 2020 Presidential election. If they answer "President Trump" then hold them for 72 hours for additional interrogation.
