So what you are saying is that their methods worked. He had decided at the point he met with a superior force that his radical ploy wasn't going to be effective

I said nothing of the sort. He was leaving BEFORE any force was applied on either side. Therefore, force was not necessary.

I just can't understand California logic. He had a butt kicking comming and now someone wants to talk about fairness and review. Don't hire people to enforce rules or give them the power and tools to do it. Lets just make sure no one gets their feelings hurt. They didn't clean up NYC by worrying about the feelings of some malcontents. If there was less concern about students feelings on campuses they might be better prepared for the real world after they graduate or at least we would have fewer radicals on campus.
