  • Now the school should permanently expel all students who take them to court and sue bar them from entering the property for life
  • @dougiep2769
    Sue the leadership of the university personally for allowing this to happen knowingly. The incompetence has caused damages

    Good for them. I saw video interviews of some protesters. When asked why they were protesting specifically, they didn't know. It seems the whole thing is just trendy and exciting. For the University to do anything but step on this is ridiculous. Jewish students, and other students who are just looking for an education, shouldn't have to put up with such garbage. They pay huge money to attend Northwestern. And by the way, Palestinians have been presented with a two state solution and turned it down. They aren't interested in anything but taking it all.

    Absolutely, sue them all these universities, but I would like to see a nice investigation on who is funding this and organizing It, and I’d suit them too
  • @riverduck3
    How can I send money to support these two young people in their lawsuit?
  • @tilik13
    NU did not admit Jewish students until 1974.

    Attention Northwestern football team (as well as the other money-revenue sports). Enter the transfer portal. Leave 'm with nothing. Hit 'm where it hurts.

    Columbia. NYU and the rest of the colleges in the area (imitating the big name universities), now it’s time to sue them all! Collective punishment for collective antisemitism, vandalism and intimidation. Collective punishment for the faculty members and administrators for their role in this situation getting out of control. My message for the adults, faculty and management: we can say students were susceptible to the frenzy and hysteria of the moment due to them being brainwashed for decades, what is your excuse for not stopping the hate filled chants and intimidations?

    Not supporting Israel does not equate to antisemitism. Even being against zionism is not antisemitic. Many Jewish people disagree with the concept. But like the old saying goes " he cries out in pain even as he slaps you. "
