      Someone blocking the roads or protesting at an airport for example causes some inconvenience, but at the end of the day, the issue may be so important that some inconvenience could shed light on the issue depending on how bad it is.
      I can always take the long road around or catch a different flight, but Palestinians in this context won’t be able to get over the inconvenience of moving elsewhere from their bombed location because Israel blocked travel from land, air, and sea and it’s been described as an open air prison.

      @@somkeshav4143 This isn't about the Palestinians in Gaza. This is about how some of the protestor are behaving. To be blunt some of the things that they're demanding is something the Universities can't do or affect. It's just them trying to get the University to echo their beliefs rather than allowing the University to be what it should be, a place of learning and development. I have sympathy for the Palestinians in Gaza since they're effectively hostages in a conflict between Israel & Hamas but the behavior displayed in some cases isn't helping or worse.

      Divestment isn’t hard for a university to do and I think it’s completely what the protestors want from them especially given the fact it’s their money they’re sending overseas.

Later that week, I was red & flush from a sunburn incurred for that day's excursion & getting some cool air from my bedrrom windows as the tanks rolled over Summit Street.

    There is a distinction to be made between protests and effective protests.
    BLM protests probably did more harm than good to their cause. It's harsh but it's true. So far the college protests have probably helped the visibility of the plight if Palestine some, but I doubt the colleges or the government are going to make significant changes directly because of the protests.

    With all due respect, this is why libertarians and libertarian minded individuals has lost nearly every institution in this country. Libertarians will champion the rights of those they disagree with (a truly good faith position to hold) and in turn be silenced by those they were just championing. I'm sorry, you CANNOT play this game any more, I'm happy many of you are holding fast to your principles, but with each passing day I grow more and more weary of such a stance. The skyrocketing debt, draconian laws, anti-religious fervor, truly heinous ideology, and all the other evils (evil used deliberately in reference to the unconscionable policies which have been adopted) unleashed by the American left, are simply too great to justify allowing to be propagated on the basis of "moral principles". I mean no hate by this comment, but simply continuing down this path of defeatism for the sake of the maintenance of libertarian values is simply not a justifiable choice given the reality which has been made so plainly clear, at the minimum, in the last decade.
