- I would also accept Israel-Palestinian children war, since the majority of the dead are children.

- It’s unclear why you felt the need to act needlessly cruel. It’s even less clear what you get out of it.

  Almost certainly someone who chose not to go to college or didn't get in and see people who spend the money and fail as vindication for themselves.
  
  Same reason people are against loan forgiveness.

  University Professor with now "prior" students affected by today's raid. The University is neither partisan to foreign events nor a place to take a building hostage for such. It just boggles my mind how anyone, including my prior students could both assume nothing would happen to them and to fall victim to feed such hatred. Hatred is not the answer, it's a proven fact.

I can't wait for the surprise Pikachu on their faces when the university takes action. If they think actions should have consequences for others, why shouldn't it apply to them as well?

- There will be no surprised Pikachu faces because anyone out there protesting values innocent human lives more than a suspension, expulsion, or unjust criminal charges unto them.
  
  I think you might not get protesting.

  Did Hamas value innocent human lives on October 7th?

  If that’s really true, why weren’t they protesting when the saudis were bombing the hell out of Yemen?

- You presume that everyone acts selfishly and ignorantly like you do.

  Nah, I expect people are dumb enough to think the first amendment protects them from private institutions and consequences. I've seen enough people over the years that have proven me right and were then surprised by the consequences of their own actions.

- Are you stupid? You think they haven't faced action yet? Lol read a book

  Their camp is still there on campus past the deadline. They clearly haven't fully faced the consequences of it yet.
