The Time Has Come To Get Serious About Punishing And Removing Campus Tyrants

I've watched in absolute horror at what is happening at college campuses across this great nation. Yes, there have been protests on college grounds forever. That is nothing new. Usually, those protests targeted government institutions, elected officials, unfair laws or the police. This is the first one I can remember where actual students are being tormented. The first time protestors are making a specific group of students feel unsafe. These demonstrators have effectively run Jewish students off campus, disrupted graduations and overall made a group of people operate in fear. That is unacceptable. College administrators must use every deterrent at their disposable to make it clear this can never happen again. USF in Florida is off to a good start. They have informed protestors they will be suspended. This should be the minimum punishment. Police at UCLA decided there would be no anonymity for students terrorizing other students. They pulled the masks off right on television. Another spectacular move. The 'protestors' violated campus policy & rules, dumped liquid on an Officer, threw objects at Police & raised a foreign nations flag in place of Old Glory. You don't have 'talks' with racist terrorist supporters. You suspend them, expel them, & arrest them if they break the law. If campus administrators allow students to get away with disobeying rules and disrespecting local police authorities, there is no way to put the genie back in the bottle. It will get worse. Here are three ways to fight campus antisemitism without advancing DEI-style policies: • Defund “decolonization” studies departments. • Prohibit foreign state funding of US universities. • Expel students who disrupt operations, occupy buildings, or commit violence. Florida is following this model (Chris Rufo is on the Board of Directors for a Florida college) and as a result, the protests in Florida have been squashed rather quickly. -- Deport every single Marxist foreign student engaging in this lawlessness while in our country on a visa. It is past time a message is sent to foreign students permitted to study in the United States on a study visa. They are here as guests. They do not have a right to cause disruption. They do not have a right to participate in illegal 'protest' activities. Our police officers should not have to spend one moment dealing with a student here as a guest. The very first time they disobey University rules or have an interaction with the police, they should be sent home the next day. There should be no discussion. There is enough strife happening in this country without allowing outsiders to come here and create more. Arresting protesters on campus would allow us to understand who is actually a student, who is actually a citizen and who is a foreign paid agitator. It would allow us to deport those who have forfeited the right to be here and take action against foreign backed groups. At Columbia University: 55% of students are International Students. In 2017, there were 17,202 foreign students enrolled on its campus, and by 2022 that population had gone up 18% to 20,347. 30% of them are engaged in Optional Practical Training (OPT) a DHS-created program that allows foreign students to work in their field of study for one or three years beyond graduation while remaining “enrolled.” Globalization has destroyed Columbia University. Columbia University is the hotbed of some of the worst protest activities. Here are some facts about their student body. According to the latest DHS data available, in 2022 there were 20,347 foreign students enrolled at Columbia University. The university’s website has the latest data for 2023, and puts the number at 20,321 foreign students. Columbia also lists the population by country of origin; almost half of the foreign students come from China, with 9,961 enrolled students, while Indian students account for 2,357 of the population, and Canadian students come in third with 751 enrolled foreign students. A data table on the Columbia website notes that the university has enrolled a total of 36,649 students. Accordingly, this means approximately 55 percent of students at Columbia University were foreign students as of 2022. Columbia has increased its foreign student population in recent years. In 2017, there were 17,202 foreign students enrolled on its campus, and by 2022 that population had gone up to 20,347 foreign students — an 18 percent increase. It should be noted that of the more than 20,000 foreign students at Columbia University, the school reports that a total of 6,483 of them are engaged in Optional Practical Training (OPT). This is a controversial DHS-created program that allows foreign students to work in their field of study for one or three years beyond graduation. In other words, that population is not studying on campus, but is employed at some worksite (which may or may not be a campus lab, for example). Nevertheless, foreign students remain enrolled in the school while they are participating in OPT. Put differently, if looking solely at foreign students studying on Columbia’s campus, the percentage of the total student body that is made up of foreign students is approximately 38 percent (13,838 of 36,649). That really illuminates what is happening. Why negotiate? Just remove them and suspend them. Possible agreement reached to end encampment of pro-Palestinian protestors at University of Minnesota. Places like the University of Minnesota are attempting to 'negotiate' with the Hamas sympathizers. That is a sure way to get much more of this nonsense. Remove the protestors, suspend them, and send foreign students back to their home countries. It is the only way to restore order.
