Some of us actually like being part of the South and don’t reflexively hate Southern heritage. We’re Texans first and foremost and we acknowledge that we have a lot in common with our neighboring states.

Yes, the massive overlay of culture, politics, and demography between New Mexico and Texas is just overwhelming.  Oh wait...

These campus riots have been spontaneous eruptions of support for Hamas terrorists. Luckily 500 professionally printed protest signs showed up unannounced out of nowhere! 😂

While attacking police who have arrived to end the UCLA encampment, one protester shrieks:“Leave our campus! This is a f*cking school! This is a f*cking school! What are you doing? This is a school! We f*cking learn! I’m trying to learn about public health!”Watch out

At MIT they think that raping people is a form of resisting an occupation.

 

 

 

We just wanted to warn people entering the encampment @MIT, in case they were confused about who was behind it and what they stand for 😈

Guy who tried to keep the Columbia janitor hostage is the son of millionaire parents. People joke that Bruce Wayne could have used his wealth to help Gotham, but maybe Batman's creators understood that what rich scions really like to do is put on masks and try to beat people up. https://t.co/dYuUuGCd3F

Pretty sure 250's post was a joke.

  1. Tom Thumb stores are only still present in the DFW area.
  2. Those photos are four years old and were taken at construction sites during the height of the BLM protests.
  3. They were part of a social media hoax, saying that bricks were being staged for protesters to use as weapons.

I can't speak for Tom Thumb anymore, but Randall's has to be the worst grocery store in Austin...if HEB were closed for some reason I would choose Fiesta 10/10 times.

Randall’s was a good high end grocery then Safeway purchased it.

Randall's in West Lake Hills is excellent. But go ahead and stay away. More Topo Chico 12 packs for me (which HEB in Westlake doesn't sell).

Vassar protesters removed their tents after the college agreed to review its investments.

Pro-Palestinian protesters dismantled their encampment at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., on Saturday after reaching an agreement with the institution that requires administrators to review a divestment proposal.

Student demonstrators pitched dozens of tents on Vassar’s campus, starting on Tuesday. The liberal arts college is a bastion of progressive ideas with a long history of student protest, and Vassar’s president said in a statement this week that she hoped to resolve the current disagreement with pro-Palestinian demonstrators peacefully.

In the agreement reached on Saturday, Vassar officials agreed to review a proposal to divest funds from “defense-related investments, such as militarized surveillance and arms production,”  and to support student fund-raising efforts in support of refugees, according to a statement by the president, Elizabeth H. Bradley.

The divestment language did not mention Israel or the war in the Gaza Strip, as the protesters had in their demands.

But Ms. Bradley said administrators had also agreed to “recruit and support Palestinian students and scholars-at-risk, who have lost educational and professional opportunities” since Oct. 7, a reference to the attacks in Israel by Hamas and its allies that prompted Israel’s war in Gaza.

“With these commitments, the college will work to improve our understanding, dialogue about, and educational programming concerning peace and conflict, with focus on Gaza and the Middle East,” she said.

The Vassar agreement is one of several in which student protesters have agreed to clear camps in exchange for commitments to discuss institutional investment policies around Israel. Students for Justice in Palestine at Vassar, the group that organized the encampment and negotiated with administrators, said in a statement on social media that it did not feel like a victory.

“We are not happy about the concessions we’ve made, but our work is not done,” the group said in the statement, adding that the administration had not agreed to all of the demands laid out by protesters when they launched the encampment. Those demands included calls for the Vassar administration to release a public statement calling for “an immediate end to Israel’s siege on Gaza and an end to U.S. aid for Israel,” and to completely boycott Israeli academic institutions, including Vassar-sponsored study abroad programs in Israel.

“At this time, we believe this is the most strategic decision we can make in order to further our efforts for divestment and Palestinian liberation,” the students said of the agreement.

They said they would donate the roughly $7,000 they had raised since launching their encampment to families in Gaza, and redistribute any donated supplies to people and organizations in Poughkeepsie.

Boss move would be to review the investments and then purchase 7k more worth of Lockheed. 

The whole divest movement is just a transparent attempt to justify a temper tantrum, the vast majority of these schools just own some index funds.  The IDF is in no way dependent on American university investors.

Right, but here's the deal: It looks like those universities that are willing to sit down and actually talk to the students are the ones where you're seeing protests fizzle. Maybe open the books and explain to the kids how their investments operate.

Not true.   Ones where they laid out consequences and acted on them are open and doing great.  Ones that continue to appease….not free speech but a desire to disrupt others, are still living with the shit show they encourage.

While I agree I bet the students at some point will be allowed to take makeup finals. If they are seniors they will be gone after that. For the others I wonder if they will be allowed back to complete their degrees

A child learns there are repercussions to their actions.  You wish her parents had taught her that 17 years ago, but whatever.

I hate it. The only thing good about it is the fried chicken.  The Westlake HEB sells Topo, they are just frequently out of it.

If they conduct fake hangings or throwing them in jail, I assume that is no longer protected under free speech. Just wondering where the line is drawn. I would think going up to Jerry Seinfeld and saying Death to Jews is fine but something directed specifically at the comedian like you are next (as opposed to just calling him a Jew) is actionable justifying criminal charges that would probably get dropped.
