We’ve seen endless pro-Hamas, antisemitic protests breaking out at universities across the nation—but what’s arguably worse is witnessing the administrations of these institutions and many folks in the leftist corporate media condoning these hateful, violent campus takeovers and coddling the radical students like they’re little well-meaning babies. But one school in California (surprisingly) is calling these actions out for what they are: “lawless behavior” that has nothing to do with free speech and everything to do with vandalism, violence, and discrimination. The school is California State Polytechnic University in Humboldt, and on Sunday they issued a hard-hitting statement to the brats who have commandeered two academic buildings and named one of them "Intifada Hall." Disgusting behavior. “Intifada” is a word many take to mean “kill Jews,” but it’s unclear if these radical protesters know that—or even care. Here’s what it’s been like lately getting your "education" at Poly: The situation could heat up Monday, according to leftists on social media who predict police action and also exhort their comrades to make a stand. The school’s statement starts out with all the usual academic bromides, but then unexpectedly takes a sterner tone:
Fair enough. But at this point, the administration takes a different approach than the weak-kneed, capitulation we’ve seen from so many schools:
It’s almost amazing that we are shocked to see a school actually saying the right thing—that's how far the reputations of our institutions of “higher education” have fallen. The school points out that rather than being a cutesy, peaceful protest by big-hearted young idealists, it actually reeks more of gang violence, and the damage will be in millions:
More profound than the loss of property, however, Cal Poly points out another loss that is much more important:
Kudos to them. The question hanging in the air, though, is why aren’t more colleges and universities condemning hateful behavior instead of condoning it?
