 NY city and state lawmakers condemn CUNY chancellor after anti-Israel melee at Brooklyn College: ‘Step up or step down’

Chaos breaks out as anti-Israel activists ‘erected tents’ at Brooklyn College in NYC, 80 arrested
A bipartisan group of nine New York City and state lawmakers is demanding Brooklyn College take swift action after a mob of anti-Israel protesters brawled with cops on campus Thursday, resulting in more than a dozen arrests.

“It is unacceptable but not surprising that almost two years after October 7th — after an investigation into CUNY and several public hearings — we are still grappling with disruptive and criminal behavior against Jewish students, encampments and masked agitators on campus,” reads a May 9 letter to Brooklyn College chancellor Félix V. Matos Rodríguez exclusively obtained by The Post.
 
The letter was signed by Councilmembers Inna Vernikov, Farah Louis, Mercedes Narcisse, and Robert Holden, and Assemblymembers Kalman Yeger, Lester Chang, Eric Ari Brown, Jamie Williams and Alec Brook-Krasny.
 
The chaos erupted around 4:50 p.m. Thursday after a group of agitators attempted to start a tent encampment on the Bedford Avenue campus as students were studying for finals.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I'm sure the "protestors" can find a federal judge who will rule the city had no right to arrest them and fine the city so the "protestors" don't have to work for the rest of their lives. :whistle:
