@middleeasteye: At least 34 pro-Palestine protesters were arrested following a rally at the University of Texas in Austin on Wednesday. Students were calling for the university to divest from companies doing business with Israel and chanted to “end the occupation” before police forces on horseback and in riot gear attempted to disperse the protests. The standoff in Austin comes as ongoing protests at New York’s Columbia University amid Israel’s war on Gaza and similar demonstrations across the country have sparked intense attention from media and politicians.
Full riot gear and police on horseback for unarmed and peaceful demonstrators, yet they couldn’t be bothered to show up at Uvalde 🤨

These people are the bravest Americans of all. While some people still think these armed losers in uniforms are “protecting their country”

when you're too ignorant to realize it wasn't to stop student protest but to rid of non-student organizers and terrorist to protect all students.
