Columbia University: NYPD Not Permitted To Oust Anti-Israel Illegal Occupiers

(1/1)

Legal Insurrection by Stacey Matthews Sunday, April 28, 2024

“we all share the view, based on discussions within our community and with outside experts, that to bring back the NYPD at this time would be counterproductive, further inflaming what is happening on campus”

As further evidence that the lunatics are indeed running the asylum at Columbia University, it was announced Friday by school administrators that the NYPD would no longer be called in to assist with the anti-Israel occupiers on grounds that it only “inflamed” tensions and ultimately was “counterproductive.”

The Columbia Spectator reported the news:

    The University does not plan to call the New York Police Department back to campus, University President Minouche Shafik, board of trustees co-chairs Claire Shipman, CC ’86, SIPA ’94, and David Greenwald, Law ’83, and University Provost Angela Olinto announced in a Friday email to the community.

    “We called on NYPD to clear an encampment once, but we all share the view, based on discussions within our community and with outside experts, that to bring back the NYPD at this time would be counterproductive, further inflaming what is happening on campus, and drawing thousands to our doorstep who would threaten our community,” the email reads.

    The joint statement further states that the University must “enforce our own rules and ensure that those who violate the norms of our community face consequences.” The statement condemns antisemitism on and around campus and writes that “the safety situation has become concerning, particularly with the involvement of individuals not associated with Columbia.”

If the KKK established a tent city in the middle of @Columbia University, threatening minority students & violating rules, you can be sure that Columbia would call the NYPD, the Marines & anyone else with the power to remove them.

But now it's only Jews at risk, so no such luck.

Columbia sends out email to its alumni list linking to Board chair/president statement that the NYPD won't be called back to campus even as anti-Israel protesters continue to flout university rules.
Striking they want this message to get through as widely as possible.

Kamaji:
Every jewish graduate from Columbia who contributes funds to that school should stop doing so - as should any other graduate who still values personal freedom and liberty - and should find other, more deserving objects of their beneficence.  Those who have made large gifts in the past should be suing to recover those gifts on the basis that the university is now antithetical to the purpose of that gift.
