- CNN's Ed Lavandera is on the ground as police tear down Pro-Palestinian protesters' barrier at the University of Texas at Austin.
#CNN #News
I gave up after the first few minutes. The reporter doesn't know how to use a microphone and at no point during this report was it mentioned what the people are protesting. I can only assume. What the hell was the point of even putting this on the air?
Same here.
Zero point of airing that !!
Its totally understood,US is a non-democratic country
It sounds like they are saying
“Sponge Bob Square Pants”
😂😂😂😂😂
No they are actually chanting FJB 😂😂
I can’t heeeeearr you
I thought they were yelling, “No more Candice!” I was wondering what she did wrong to generate so much animosity.
Ohhhhhhh who’s a Hamas Jihadist that lives under the sea?
Sponge Bob Square Pants does not approve of Islamic Jihad
It's a mix of "sponge bob square pants" and "I'm charles manson". Probably need a new chant
😂😂😂😂
They’re right though. It is their campus. They pay tuition and they pay rent for their dormitories. That campus is their home, and these pig cops are fascists. Proud of these kids!
😂😂😂😂😂
Funny...... I hear "hands off my foot" & "no more pedicures".......
brilliant 🤓I thought Kim Wilde's 'We're The kids in America' would be a good choice for the protestors, followed by Lennon's anthem 'Give Peace A Chance'.
Teach that dude how to use a mic
He is scared.
Teach you how to listen. Teach you critical thinking skills,
You got way more 👍 than John rider he's got 1, he did it himself 😂
@coachking5208 scared of what? He puts the mic away from his mouth that's the problem
😂😂😂 he is so scard to show the protester
"Why are you in riot gear?" I can finally hear what they are chanting.
Followed by "There's no riot here!"
Also "off our campus"
They are in riot gear because these unlawful assemblies tend to turn into riots. These people do not have permission to be on the university campus, actually, the university has told them to leave. Why do you think the cops are there, it's because the university has asked them to be.
The cops are people with families and the reason they are wearing riot gear is because, at the end of the day, they want to make it home to their families.
@LuIca5 No but it is an unlawful assembly.
Imagine that's your brainless kid, asking "why are you in riot gear?".
All that wasted tuition, and the kid still doesn't know why would need riot gear. stop the tuition, contact McDonalds, and let the dream end. focus on your other kids future, instead.
Why these protests are not in Egypt, Jordan or Saudi Arabia?
Because it’s easier to congregate where they are?
It’s their people they sent to our students
Because they all know that the Islamists are the problem not Israel. And they don't care much for protests...
WTF is wrong with you? Egipt is not sponsoring this genocide and illegal occupation.
True
This is not going to end well.
Didn’t know Palestine meant so much to so many other Americans…one day could come where we care about our own soil as much.
Yeah. Not wanting US taxpayer money pays for genocide and instead used for USAn is sooo....un american. Besides the pesky Constitution of USA and Leahy act.
Get out of here, hasbara.😂
No protests for genocide in Ucrania? Iran? Nigeria? Wth!
Our tax dollars are not directly funding those
This is actually a good point. This one conflict has sucked all the oxygen out of the room. It's always been that way with Israel vs. Palestine.
You're free to start protesting whenever you want. Get to it!
Is the US funding those
Universities don’t have investments in “Ucrania” nor in Iran nor in Nigeria..
Those kids need to have their participation trophies revoked.
Because they criticise Israel?
How is fighting against genocide a participation trophy?
@@nathanrupley: Genocide? You people are nuts. You know who wants genocide…Hamas! They openly condone it against Jews. That’s what “from the river to the sea” means.
Hamas wants to kill every Jew but can’t. Israel COULD kill every Palestinian, but doesn’t.
@nathanrupley how is it "genocide" when the gaza population has grown 10X since the Israeli state was formed???
They should be protesting the other Muslim countries that want nothing to do with the Palestinians.. maybe you should take a look at the wall that Egypt built to keep them out..
@@aimanmarzuqi4804 no.. because they don't even know that their protesting. They just want to bitch and complain like spoiled children.
Wow did they just say Cops are Escalating it. Way to go CNN
Communist news network (CNN)
One thing they got right. Cops are always escalating shit
I feel that if a protest is peaceful all the authorities do is make it more intense.
I will never forget about bing in high school and hearing about Kent State.
War takes its toll on innocent peoples lives. Nothing good can ever come from that.
you are younge. you will find that 'authorities' make everything worse
This isn't a protest, these are paid stooges praising terrorists! I'm sure many of these stooges were involved in blm and antifa riots.

public university...part of the Texas university system
@@nunyanunya4147bruh he said he was in highschool when Kent state happened
Not that young
What are these kids protesting? There's no draft, no working class kids getting drafted while rich kids dodged. So? What's all the fuss about?
They don't want their tuition fees to be used to prop up an apartheid state.
It's a pretty simple concept.
Maybe they should also be concerned about all the money Qatar and other bad actors are sending them.
@@John.Doe.272 Hasbara rubbish. Do better.
Don't you guys get it... these are all wealthy privileged kids who's parents are all connected to politics and corporate powers.. these "protests are being carefully orchestrated by very powerful people to cause chaos... just like evry other nationwide "protest" you have seen in this ever more pathetic country
Maybe Hamas should not endanger their own people?
Finally Sponge Bob will be held accountable
exactly.
why would anyone send their kids to college today? you'd be better off tellin em to start a pressure washing business
we actually need both "higher educated" and "skilled labor" nothing wrong with either one.
They are being systematically replaced and just don't know it yet.
you are a white racist. whats the problem in protest by brown people if it is peaceful
I can just see the pressure washing surgeons. 😅
Peter Boghossian says it would be better to lie down in a field and stare at the sky for 4 years than to go to a woke school. 😅
I am staying in my house until all my demands are met
😂😂😂😂
😀
Why do they have giant guns?
They're compensating for shortcomings elsewhere
You fear guns?
Guns are considered a visual deterrent so people don't think of starting to be violent. It's simple to understand. If you live in the US you'd know it.
Because everything is bigger in Texas?
@@reggieburkes4471
When their bring pointed at students yes.
It's not your campus. It's the State's campus!😂😂😂
No it is their campus. They pay tuition, and rent for their dorms. They live there. It’s their home. And the pig cops are harassing them in their own home.
Its public property.
@@mikeb5664 So is Fort Knox!
Why hold lethal weapons and batons?? So heavy handed. Causing more tension.
its there job you criminal.
AIPAC is working hard
Because it's not the US Capitol Building. If they were deployed to the US Capitol Building facing a bunch of psychotic anarchists then they would hand out free soda and cotton candy. Hope this helps.
Oh well then go home.
Because they’re facing pro-Hamas terra wrists (sic).
To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to DIVEST from.
Shows how weak the colleges are😂
To learn who rules over you, follow the money of who funds the protests. Follow the money as to WHICH country is TARGETED in protests & how many ARE NOT.
@@SafetySpooon yawn
What a silly little vanity-strewn remark to make! You ceaselessly heap opprobrium on a great and small nation that raised itself up, like America, by its bootstraps and you think it rules over you.
You're have no rights to come to the United States of America 🇺🇸 to try changing our laws of the United States of America 🇺🇸 dearly 😊
Medic came out from nowhere 🤔
There's a nursing program in that college I think. They're there acting as medics.
dont protest kids. You affect the money that will have a bigger effect
This is like plants vs zombies... the barricades and the slow encroaching police.
You can bet one thing, whatever the rich people kids go at. They aint having their problem.
Holy shit dude. Learn English well enough to write a coherent sentence.
I know none of our private Christian uni's are.
@@ChronicUnderachiever420😂
Isn’t protest the hallmark of democracy as Blinken said.
Not hateful speech, do some research.
There's a difference in public protests and occupying private property to protest. They asked them to leave and they didn't.
Your freedom of speech doesn't negate personal properties 😂
Only if is USA organized protest in some other country that USA don't like
Yes legally protesting . Not illegal when you block public places, threaten, or defy orders to disperse.
Please be peaceful!
You are addressing the Zionist Texas Trooper-Police, right.
Are you talking to Israel?
@@afridgetoofar1818 The left wing doesn’t know how to be peaceful
@@afridgetoofar1818right!
Oh sweet summer child. First American protest, huh?
Wait, I thought Abbot signed a law allowing public protests!?!!?
Never knew texas was so woke
University presidents can set their own Campus law, and have the state enforce it. True story.
I think when you chant death to America you have crossed a legal line. Not 100% sure but perhaps that’s what happened.
Only protests that he likes.
They have every right to stand on a public sidewalk and hold their signs. However they are o the private property of the university and they don’t have a right to be there nor do they have the right to impede traffic
this is a crazy situation but i like how chill that one trooper is being. He could be shoving people or yelling but he was just tapping them and asking them to stand back.
Trooper just adjusted his mindset to what you would need to do to deal with this situation, as one would say for a day care center or kindergarden class.
Tell that to his co-workers.
Omg medic someone slipped on this wet grass
Why are you taking down my tweet?
i can feel the humdity through my screen
Hahaha
yes, of course you have first amendment rights. but your university also has a code of conduct that holds community members to higher standards.
yeah and those standards are zionism
Are those standards higher than freedom of speech?
@@sebastianliebmann6014You know who else hated Zionism? The Nazi regime and the Soviet Union.
@@chadlevitan7886 WHat makes you think that the NAzis hated Zionism? And how is that an argument here?
@@sebastianliebmann6014 My previous study of history and the fact that I actually read Mein Kampf in order to learn how such tyranny arises in an educated nation so that I can recognize it for what it is. My point is simply that people like yourself shout buzzwords without even understanding the meaning and who historically was for or against such ideals.
What are they changing?
How safe jewish kids feel on their campus.
Their ability to think critically instead of following like sheep.
Shows that the students are too free. Nothing else better to do.
I am praying for these children.
Me too. I am with them too.
The best of us are risking it all right now.
For each protest that police shut down, two more seem to be appearing on different college campuses. 🧐
No more war - yelled during the anti Vietnam protests
Unrealistic and naive.
@@bennettbush3906 How is it unrealistic when it literally worked
@@bennettbush3906 Martin Luther King had protests that blocked all the streets, it worked in the end.
Lord, please protect both sides of this difficult situation. ❤
yes... but which one's Lord are you calling upon?
and the crux of the 'situation' has already been found....
Thank you 💜
Remember Kent State 🙏
@@nunyanunya4147 true, the gazans that voted for a terrorist organization to run their population are truly to blame
Lorde please protect the students that want to actually study and not these little sissies they want to protest for something they know nothing about and protect the police department, 🤣😂
Proverbs 12:15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes:
It’s UT in Austin. This doesn’t surprise actual Texans in the least.
If they succeeded to disperse these kids today, they will succeed to disperse every protesters any other day
Good we don't need ignorant people in the USA plain and simple, 🤣😂😁
Don't be so dramatic
Camping in unapproved public places is against the law in Texas.
These clowns don't have anything better to do than protest everyday?
Do they have jobs? Kids? Family?
These "Kids" are demanding genocide. Not exactly a classic American protest.
Honestly, the majority of these "Kids" are paid agitators. Preying on our weak minded youth.
Wake up friend, it is all on purpose and it's going to get worse and switch topics. This is to turn the public on the police AGAIN.
Wait until we switch to immigrant rights, ooh thats gonna be a big one.
Note to fools: This ISN'T a "public" protest. It's also not "their campus," they don't own it, and paying tuition doesn't give ownership rights. Universities are private property, and they can demand trespassers leave. Especially violent ones. The police will help property owners and managers remove the trespassers, INCLUDING students who are refusing to leave. Go out and protest on the side of the roads, without blocking traffic.
There was protests against Vietnam war like this.
But sure you want a protest for your beloved Ukraine.
If you're from Austin or had gone to UT, you'd probably be familiar with SB18 that was passed a half-decade ago by Texas' legistlative branch. We're a republic, different states and institutions have different rules.
Peaceful protest is the peoples rights !
Wow, they tour down two tents and removed two folding tables. The headline of "Police dismantle camp" was a bit much lol😂
This doesn't look like a democratic country to me
Well it sure isn't Russia or China
yeas, it looks like a group of middle east people in a middle eastern country.
Welcome to the reality of the US today …. A Police State.
@@janejones8672It’s a lot more similar than your government officials want you to believe… Let me remind you that China has invaded less countries than the US and hasn’t drop any atomic bomb.

What is the definition of violence?
Violence is defined by the World Health Organization in the WRVH as “the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or community, that either results in or has a high likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, maldevelopment ...
❤To protesters from India..
American freedom of speech and expression is now became a comedy..
What is the definition of a riot?
a noisy, violent public disorder caused by a group or crowd of persons, as by a crowd protesting against another group, a government policy, etc., in the streets.
It doesn't look violent to me
It sounds like they are chanting FJB 🤔😢😆
"There is no riot here. Why were you invited here?" is what many of the university students have been chanting to the law enforcement officials who surround peaceful protests. Its a good question.
The reporter would be given a lot more respect if he had his company logo on his shirt. Don't ya think?
It is heartbreaking and my hat off to those brave kids. Just talked to my wife that we would be in panic as parents if our kids were part of that although it is very noble action. In my selfish way, if any of my kid were part of that, I would talk him or her off by promising to donate any amount of money my kid would ask for this movement. I hope and pray for those brave kids that they would graduate from the college and have bright future ahead.
Surly, you're kidding... jeeezus
This is NOT a riot. A RIOT is : a violent public disorder. specifically : a tumultuous disturbance of the public peace by three or more persons assembled together and acting with a common intent. b. : public violence, tumult, or disorder.
A PEACEFUL PROTEST is also known as nonviolent resistance, is a form of protest in which participants do not engage in any action that could be deemed violent.
But you can do that somewhere else than on a Campus.
@@charlesmartel6103 Freedom of Assembly an American right fought for over countless generations and a hallmark of our democracy.
this is a protest because their color is brown. nothing but racism here lol
@@hafunland894 Other students have the right to go to university to learn and study, without being hindered.
@@charlesmartel6103 No one is stopping people from going to class and studying. They are peacefully protesting outside on common grounds. Do you think In the six months since the 7 October attacks in which 33 children were killed, more than 13,800 Palestinian children have been killed in Gaza. Does this bother you any?
Imagine protesting something you cant control nor will it have any effect.

Or a badge.

SUCH a riveting report. ... eyeroll
Jesus Christ ! I do need to relive the 60's. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I grew up in the 1960's and this is Deja vu. The authorities can't bear to allow anyone to protest.
Is this a free country or not??
Tin soldiers and Israel coming
The Palestinians are not on their own
You're not allowed to occupy a school. And they don't have a permit to protest.
What they're doing is disrupting everybody trying to study for their finals, intimidating other students and rooting for fascism.
They should have been off to campus the first day within the hour.
Yah - we now know those and these protests are a waste of time.
Nothing free about it. Obviously.
Power to the people. 🎉 We hold all the power.
Keep tellin yourself that
They don’t want to you to know the real story!
31000 ukranian soldiers have died and iran funds Hamas... how about anti Iran just confused why one nation has more out cry over the other.
*imagine everyone seeing the same thing but one side calling it anti israel protests and the other side calling it pro palestine protests*
depends if the protestors want Israel to exist or not
I see the failure of the Universities Mid-East Studies Department, or some of the instigators are not real student.
Greetings to all freedom-loving students of America. History will remember each of your names well✌️🇵🇸
And they both want the same thing, a cease fire.
I call them Pro-Hamas protests. #FreetheHostages
The First Amendment protects your right to assemble and express your views through protest. However, police and other government officials are allowed to place certain narrow restrictions on the exercise of speech rights.
They are on private property and the landowner does not want them there, there are plenty of open spaces where they can spout their asinine bullshit.

So we're doing Viet Nam all over again, are we? Hooray. Everything old is new again and we never seem to learn from our past.
You don't have the right to take over the entire campus when you protest.
And South Africa and Iraq 1 and Iraq 2 And Afghanistan. The same people buy the lies then act like they were against the war. Give it about 15 years and everyone will say they were against the police action and war.
@@reggieburkes4471says who?
The fact that you guys equate this to Vietnam shows just how far our civic knowledge has fallen. Our country is not a participant in this conflict and even so, our secretary of state IS IN the Middle East trying to broker a cease-fire. So I simply don't understand what these people are harassing these colleges for.

I am grateful to the conscientious students of various universities in the United States, and strongly condemn the brutal police operation😭😭.
This is private property and the University invited cops.
Here is the deal. The University is legally responsible if/when someone gets hurt. If they fail to ask for police assistance and someone gets violent, they would be held responsible for failing to protect their students.
It's a public University
The property of a public university isn't private.
@@tesladrew2608 Public high schools are public property. Doesn't mean you can camp, hang out and protest, etc. It becomes trespassing at that point.

Nothing will change anything...especially these protests will have zero results for the civilians of Gaza It's thedamn truth and we all know it.
For one reason, they are pro-Hamas and fail to realize that the citizens of Gaza have elected/acquiesced to a terrorist regime as their government who then committed the second largest attack in history. What did they expect?
This is about the election of 2024. The more I see these protest, the less likely I am to vote for Biden
That’s not the point. The point is to get colleges to divest and show that there’s still a shred of democracy left.
i’m remembering the protests that lead the civil rights movement, the campus protests against the vietnam war etc. before that was the revolution of dignity in ukraine, protestors on both sides of wall in berlin literally breaking it down. decades earlier, ghandi leading the march to the sea, etc.
sometimes things change as a direct result, sometimes not. however, as far as my research goes, no major positive political, cultural or societal advancement has sprung from negative and defeatist youtube comments.

Good one, I laughed so hard I even wrote it down in my diary. "Shaila made a really funny joke today..."
I know that a lot of people feel very passionately about this issue. But knowing how history repeats itself, I still retain my doubts and reservations about it all. I can't help it. I have seen these situations completely reverse themselves, leaving some people who do not have immunity, out on a limb. I have seen that happen many times.

Why are protests being banned?
They are on the private property of the university
Because they support Hamas Islamic jihadist and theocracy.
Of their campus.....@@margaretglowacki5749
College admins champion how they want their students to stand up to injustice but once it’s against something the college supports it all goes downhill🤡
Because they are pushing the universities to divest their investments in Israeli businesses. And the universities don’t like that.
What a mess....All sides of this is wrong. I'm tired of all the hate. Mankind will never learn.
Thank your government
true but one side is funded by america and the other isnt
“bOtH sIdEs”. One side is anti genocide. The other is pro genocide and apartheid. And the chickens are coming home to roost
How is protesting genocide wrong?
These protests are for peace, for a ceasefire.
hmm, what?
Ah, how sweet, the DA is already dropping charges. It's a reunion
These protesters don't seem violent. They seemed to be protesting peacefully. So why are police breaking up and peaceful protests
Because the US is an Israeli colony, sadly.
Reminds me what happened to students in Hong Kong protest
Hardly
Not even close
Solid Point 👍🏽
@pamelamattox7881 why not?
Revoke all Fafsa. Our taxes are paying for those students. No graduation. Send foreign students home. Close the university.
So are they protesting Texas joining the SEC?
As long as they are protesting g peacefully? What’s the problem?
