Welcome to Columbia: Keffiyeh-Clad Activists Chain Themselves to Campus Gate, Call for 'Intifada'
[WashingtonFreeBeacon] Columbia’s Public Safety removed the chains after several hours and escorted the activists through the gate, where they continued their protest. Later in the evening, Public Safety removed a second group that had chained themselves to a nearby fence on campus.
Last week, Grant Miner, a Columbia graduate student who was expelled earlier this month for overtaking Hamilton Hall, gave a speech on campus, telling anti-Israel protesters they had to "fight back."
Miner, the president of Columbia's radical graduate student union, Student Workers of Columbia, led a chant before giving the speech on the steps of Low Memorial Library, an administrative building. The union organized the protest, demanding "No research cuts. No ICE. No censorship. No layoffs."
Totally not reality based. Given that the feds have stopped all the money, where is the research funding to come from? And given that ICE is a federal super police, how is Columbia to keep them out?
