We have been saying this for years.

    Just checked out the article and video. I’m a bit out of the loop, but the woman in the video says

    Ms King-Slutzky said: “Nobody’s asking them to bring anything.

    “We’re asking them to not violently stop us from bringing in [food and water]’’

    Is this the hilariously mollycoddled part? The article makes it sound like the protestors want “to be fed”, but her quotes seem to suggest they just want to not be assaulted for bringing their own food? Or at least, asking for food they have already paid for to be provided? Can someone clear this up?

    It just seems like any time some young liberal college students want to protest something (like a genocide), there’s an arsenal of right wing media out to make them look like morons. Sure, young people don’t always have their shit together, but as a country we should be in support of protests and protestors, even if we don’t agree with their message. Why shit on free speech?
