You know better than what you type. My question is, when did you allow this poisonous thought to overcome you? I think you just want to appear high and mighty.
Good gosh, man.

Literally the only things I've said here are:
1. The students have a right to do this. It's actually what makes our society great.
2. The degree to which their opinions catch on and produce change will be determined by how many others agree with them.
3. The university has a right to take action as well. Similarly, the degree to which those actions will be accepted and won't be counterproductive will be determined by how many people side with them.
4. The UM president has not shown great leadership in this whole situation, beginning a few months ago, and he is reaping the consequences of that now.
6. We don't know everything about the situation.

I likely don't agree with everything these protesters believe or want. My political views in General might surprise you. But suggesting this is somehow mob rule, or comparable to the actions of the communist party in China, or that these students shouldn't be able to do this, is absurd.

Only you and a few others have made assumptions about anyone in this situation. Those assumptions are baseless at this point.
