Chaos Erupts At UCLA After Pro-Gaza Activists Refuse Entry To Non-Allied Students

Via ZeroHedge

It’s like the Seattle CHAZ encampment all over again.  Far-left activists have declared the UCLA campus a “liberated zone” and are refusing entry for many students not affiliated with the pro-Gaza protests.  They have erected barriers and placed guards, creating makeshift checkpoints which require a special wrist band in order to gain passage.

In other words, if you aren’t an “ally” then you don’t get to attend classes, or, if you’re lucky you are allowed to take a longer route around the barricades.  Keep in mind, this is not a protected form of protest or free speech, which explains why many college campuses have chosen to have protesters removed by police.  UCLA so far appears to be supporting the activists and has allowed them to take control.

The barricades and the selective barring of certain students has led to predictable anger.  Various groups are now engaging protesters and have triggered what can only be described as an all out brawl.  The use of weapons has been common and firecrackers have even been fired at activist tents.  Whether or not the fighting is between pro-Gaza and pro-Israel groups is not yet clear, and the conflict may simply be a matter of students enraged by the general blockade.  No substantial police presence is visible so far.

Though considerable criticism has been aimed at the police response to similar encampments at universities in other states and no doubt some of those actions will be reviewed in civil courts, there has been very little sympathy from the general public when it comes to woke protesters.  After years of cancel culture and the threat of Antifa and BLM mobs, we are now seeing the same exact people pummeled by law enforcement and kicked out of the tent cities choking college grounds.  Questions of free speech fall by the wayside when activists try to physically block other students from exercising their right to access public property and educational facilities.

A police response to clear UCLA of protesters is widely expected within the next couple of days.

Leftists have a tendency to hijack the causes of other movements as a way to elevate their own agendas, and this is exactly what is happening in the west with the Gaza issue.  It is rather revealing that these protesters aren’t amassing on Joe Biden’s doorstep or the halls of Congress. The people most directly responsible for the funding of Israel for some reason get a pass while US colleges with no power to change anything in the Middle East are overrun.

Is this simply a matter of what is easy?  Or, is there another motive at play?  Is this about speaking out about Gaza, or is it about radicalizing an ever growing mob that can be manipulated by progressive gatekeepers, just as we witnessed with the BLM riots?

Is it just me, or do “kids” these days all fight like little pussies?
All the videos, for a long time, show pushing, shoving, kicking when somebody is down, throwing shit at each other.
Where are the well timed, surgical knock out punches to the face?
How about a well placed kick to the balls?
A bunch of little sissy boys slap fighting, it’s embarrassing.
Maybe because most of them are raised by single mothers?

“Their” fight will not involve fisticuffs, if it did, these little pussies are going to get a curb stomp, shit their pants, wake up in a hospital, beat down.
Then their mommies can come and help them with their hurt feewings.

Young guys love to cause trouble. I remember a couple cars being flipped in 1991 when the Twins won the World Series. Drunken white guys, BTW. I would give this a 70% chance of mostly being young guys who had some roman candles laying around who found a good opportunity to shoot them off and a 30% chance of the feds or Israeli-paid operatives instigating this to taint any demonstrations against Israel’s genocide and ethnic cleansing campaign. And that’s just at this particular location. The odds that there are agents provocateur involved overall (Columbia, etc.) are 100%.

Totally agree. These shows are great made for TV propaganda nuggets that accomplish several goals. Keeps the pot boiling with anger and a opportunity of crisis to introduce quelling laws curtailing these completely organic protests.

But its all for our safeties.

Briefly saw a Foxnews segment (my father watches it) that showed — but never mentioned — a huge stack of pallets outside one of these universities.
This time, instead of pallets of bricks, they have pallets of pallets.
The fires are coming.
If I had to guess, I’d say starting in the next 24 to 48 hrs.

None of our brave politicians who took the knee for Fentanyl Floyd give a shit about 40,000 murdered Palestinians in their open-air prison.  Maybe Soros will be born again and fund riots with the slogan “Amalek Lives Matter”.

Zionist’s slaughter tens of thousands of helpless Palestinian women children and kike control media cries out in pain because students yell “Israeli Genocide” and small hats get their feelings hurt.

These coddled kids are learning about the real world and are horrified that there are monsters like SatanYahoo and Zionists. They are the same crowd who demand ‘trigger warnings’ and ‘safe spaces’ with soft toys and puppies, so they aren’t at all serious people. Until they are.

Israel has its crack whore politicians torturing these students with jack-booted storm troopers, but at what cost? Every day Joe and Jane six pack are made more aware of just how deep Israeli control of this country actually is.

“None of our brave politicians who took the knee for Fentanyl Floyd give a shit about 40,000.”

When they are murdering unarmed civilians it is standard practice to move the decimal point once or twice.
The real death total would be 400,000.

Useful Idiots. Although I think the protesting of Gaza genocide is the right thing since it is, well, a genocide, and that is evil. As I see it the Marxists are using them so they can point to their behavior and shut down free speech pointed at the shekeled ones. These useful idiots are the first ones who are going to be replaced by invaders from the middle east, africa, south america, and on and on and on.

I sometimes think of an air rifle that can shoot a GPS tracking pellet into the ass of a college campus (or otherwise) un-American agitator for tracking for a future ass-beating when they least expect it, like at their kids birthday party or the funeral of a loved one.
