Why Should New York Taxpayers Clean Up Columbia's Mess?

Last night, Columbia University’s administration finally gave the green light – far, far too late – to the NYPD. The takeover and vandalism of Hamilton Hall was, finally, the last straw.

The last straw should have come weeks ago when the students refused to get off the lawn, but President Shafik absolutely caved after allowing the NYPD to remove protesters the first time, and was apparently hoping to avoid being called a big meanie by these idiot students and their professional advisors by negotiating with them to leave. What did that get her? A modern-day insurrection and anarchist “liberation” of a campus building. And then came the demands. Oh. My. God. The revolution will be televised, but not until they get their DoorDash because the revolution demands gluten-free snacks and proper hydration. These imbeciles are out-parodying themselves, and they are so thick they don’t even realize it.

They also destroy upper class buildings and claim them as “liberated” while the students repeat chants in zombie-like chorus, playing the roll of “freedom fighters” destroying Israeli infrastructure and claiming them freed. If I’m alive in a world where people don’t see the levels of perversion in this, I give up...
