Yeah, lots of opinions on Jay on this thread.  I'll check my bias at this time.  But there is obviously going to have to be some fall guy for this.  UTPD Chief Stephens may be an obvious choice, but she simply did what they've been doing for a long while at campus protests.  It'd be hard to make a case against her leadership since DPS just rolled right over her and her team.  somebody from student affairs or vice president for student groups, maybe.  Some of the Regents are pissed, and rightfully so...even the ardent Abbott supporters.  But none of them are gonna leave over this.  UT System/Chancellor have been strangely quiet, may be something brewing there.  But most of these would be regarded as hollow resignations/terminations since this story went national/viral and right quick.  So I think Hartzell may be the Fall Guy after all.  I have inside baseball opinions on his tenure and what his future with UT could be, but I'll save that for later.  But yeah, somebody's gonna have to eat a shit sandwich on this and I doubt it's gonna be Abbott.  If the heads of DPS can survive the slaughter or dozens of children's faces beyond recognition at Uvalde, I'm pretty sure they can weather arresting some browner students being salty on an idle Wednesday.  

I say the fall guy should be Terry Joseph.

Protests are fine.

Intimidation of groups of people is dead fucking wrong.  fuck you and anyone who allows situations like Cooper Union, the literal harassing intimidation of others.

And NO there is not evidence I have seen that harassing intimidation happened at UT yesterday.

This is correct. None of that shit happened on campus yesterday. Therefore, the overwhelming and thuggish response by DPS was completely fucking unnecessary. Everything else is peripheral, so stop bringing that shit up.

What the cops did yesterday turned this whole thing from a pro-Palestinian protest into something that strikes at the core of what it means to be an American: the violent suppression of Free Speech by the State.

fuck you and feel free to put me on ignore.

Jews being chased through campuses is not a trivial issue.  You should be embarrassed taking the position, "stop bringing that shit up".   What the fuck is wrong with you?

I know this in poor taste, but that would be funny in a Kramer getting shitcanned kinda way.

"Coach Joseph.  With regard to yesterday's events...you're being let go." 

-But I had nothing to do with it.  How can you fire me?  I was looking at passing game tape while the whole protest thing took place!

"I know you were.  And that's what makes this so difficult."

Does this include the Fox7 cameraman who tripped into or was shoved into a cop?

Because this was posted in the other thread earlier this morning.

I didn't say it was trivial. I said it was peripheral to what happened yesterday. And, to my knowledge, the extreme harassment you keep talking about that has happened elsewhere hasn't happened on the UT campus. I can cite an instance of a pro-Palestinian protestor getting stabbed in West Campus a couple of months ago, though, if you're interested.

I used to chase a few Jewish kids around at my school growing up.  I am not proud of it.  I was a horrible soccer player/slow as shit in track.

I guess you are actually stupid enough to think yesterday at UT happened in a vacuum.

You're fine with harassing Jewish students.  Noted.

Sounds like something a pedophile would say. Accuse others of antisemitism to cover up their pedophilia.

My god, how slow were you that you couldn't catch up to the non-existent Jewish members of the Track & Field team?    (I say this as a slow jew myself, but I'm still pretty quick in the pool.  Not Spitz fast, but not bad for my age group)

He was my friend, dickhead.  The point you easily missed was how things could be misconstrued because it fits an agenda.  Just as you tried to conflate something that happened somewhere else with something else.    UT's pro-Palestinian protest was a MODEL protest.   Unlike some of the others happening elsewhere or other incidents where people were harmed, threatened, and harassed, that is of course, until the republican's goon squad showed up.

No.  Feel free to put me on ignore.

Nowhere did I say the UT protest yesterday was antisemitism.   I've been abundantly clear.  Jokes about chasing Jews aren't fucking funny.

You're just saying it repeatedly and insistently in a thread about the protests yesterday, while the governor and senator that are creaming their khakis over beating up protesters are claiming that they sent in the goons because of antisemitism.

 

I'm not a fucking idiot, dude. It's pretty transparent the line you're towing.

He’s fucking admitted none of his bullshit has anything to do with the protest at UT, in a thread about the protest at UT 

Of course Blacklab and the aggy will ignore the obvious threadshitting

No, this wasn't on a track team, just PE and recess (elementary school).   Reading Diary of A Wimpy Kid books to my kids, I realized I identified with the protagonist a bit too much at times.

[gsoda3 3263]

is there another thread with just details and none of the commentary? how many were arrested?  and for what?  how many participants were there?

I'd watch a buddy cop show called Blacklab and the Aggy.

It's absolutely shameful and revealing to your character that you think being anti-fascism is an insult.

[Js1 85416]

I’d probably ask for my username to be changed to that. Badge of pride being on the side of the anti-fascists

It's revealing of your character that you think its ok to chase Jewish people around Columbia University chanting about their extermination and repeatedly attempt to burn down Federal Courthouses with hundreds of federal employees inside.

[YGIFS 19452]

Anti-Fascist=Supporters of Fascist Joe Biden and against Authoritarian Donald Trump

Pro-Free Speech on College Campuses=Opposed to peaceful protests held by students who pay tuition to be on that campus

Anti-Communist=Russia isn't so bad, Putin is a misunderstood genius, as is President Xi and Kim Jung-Un (both socialists)

Anti-Authoritarian State=let the state beat people and arrest them for no reason except in certain exceptions where it's just tourists or FBI fake actors getting lost on the way to the gift shop. 

 

You live long enough, you see everything turned on its head.  This is a horrible black eye on the University.

There's a clear precedent: DT is for news, CR is for discussion. This event isn't producing updates as fast paced as Gaza or Ukraine but it's bringing the hot takes out of CR at the same rate.

Weird that these protests don't get defended as much as the peaceful demonstration 3 years ago in DC

Maybe the students should have pushed past the barricades, broken some windows in the Tower, gotten into Hartzell's office and put their feet up on his desk, stolen some shit from the Tower and threatened to hang Sharon Wood

Bonus points if they beat some police officers with flag poles

Odd post. Who here has defended Jan 6?  There are, also, very few posters not defending these protesters.

Man it's definitely bizarro land watching all the obedience worshipers run afoul of their Khazarian overlords.

Of course genocide is bad and everyone should stand up against it but the control structure who created the obedience worshiping cult are the purveyors of the genocide and they don't like dissent.

Hopefully this causes more people to join the resistance class but only time will tell.  I'm sure we will have some manufactured false flag event to scare everyone back into line.

[Captainant 27680]

TexasTribune has some new reporting on the fallout

Notable things from the journalism:

• At least 57 people, including one journalist, were arrested yesterday
• UT Faculty Counsel Executive Committee this morning said they are "gravely alarmed" by yesterday's reaction and accused Hartzell of inviting DPS onto campus
• A number of professors have made classes optional today
• Protests are planned to resume at the Tower today at 12:15
