Analysis

"Nearly 100% of Campus Gaza Protests Have Been Peaceful"

Of 553 US campus protests, 97% remained non-violent.

Of the 3%, half were from clashes with police sent in to clear peaceful protests.

"If someone is speaking more about 'violent encampments' than they are about violent genocide of the Palestinians, they have a problem reflective of deep and dangerous biases."

This is akin to MAGA claiming that BLM was violent, based on a few incidents, mostly vandalism and looting, while ignoring the fact that, based on the number of people who protested, 1/6 was 100 times more violent and destructive. They are not comparable. Perhaps 10,000 surrounded the Capitol that day, while for BLM, 20 million people marched in the US alone.

@DrALJONES
I heard some of them were calling to exterminate some people based on their nationality, religion, and place of birth. Instead of suing those who break the law.
Not judging about the peace level, but calling for putting someone to death seems to be illegal in many countries, in particular, where these protests had been.

"I heard.."

Ah, yes, what comes next is inevitably the result of thorough scientific investigation...

May I assume you stating that the matter I mentioned is legal and correct?

@nk

No, I was referring to statements beginning with "I heard..."

Plus, from memory, what you were saying wasn't clear to me.
