    More arrests of college students walking out of class and peacefully protesting the situation in Gaza. This time UT Austin.

        Spraying chemicals directly in the faces of nonviolent students and then beating the shit out of them with batons.

            Wait - that meme cop at UC Davis or wherever some years ago with the pepper spray? They tried to scrub that?

            Or a different one? Because that meme was everywhere - good luck with that one.

        To make it look like the protestors are violent. They wouldn’t call in those troops if it weren’t for those savage antisemitic protestors, right?!?

          Or if a bunch of school students are about to be killed and they need a group of nutsacks to stand around and do nothing.

          These are the same dorks from Uvalde.

        Because the American Power Elites believe Might Makes Right and the riot police are their most willful and most violent goons.

        Depending on your biases, either to try and maintain order to prevent it from becoming a riot, or to intimidate and assault protestors.

        Given the history of police and protesting college kids, it’s probably supposed to be mostly an intimidation thing.

        They don’t, they just want to scare the kids into but expressing ideas they don’t like. Which is very illegal but they don’t care
