This week, students at Portland State University decided to take a break from whatever studies they have and make fools of themselves. They staged a “die-in” to protest the fact that police carry guns. That’s right. They want officers unarmed.
“So, I do believe I have mentioned the die-in before—what that entails is a lot of us who are abused so to say…we’re going to be laying down in the street outside so [the president] can see us so he knows what the Board of Trustees does to us, which is it kills us,” one protester explained.
The video starts with the students chanting “We want real diversity! Not a police-state university,” then it shows some 200 of them laying down, blocking traffic with signs and their “die in.”
“Whose streets? Our streets!” they chanted, along with “Black Lives Matter!” and “Disarm PSU! Disarm PSU!”
The group “Disarm PSU” is a student group that was founded two years ago after the school voted to arm campus police officers. The raucous group has staged several protests before, but the school said they will not give in to their demands by disarming campus police, CampusReform is reporting.
Among the amplified comments from the students was this gem: “The police are a tool of capitalism to control people in the state they are—staying in slavery, staying in poverty wages, staying in ridiculous working conditions.”
I’m pretty sure they haven’t seen the working conditions in most socialist countries.
Instant Expulsion!!!
Life is Hard, It’s harder when your Stupid.

People actually work?
Exactly...The way to stop all this BS is to automatically expel them from school...Give them one day to clear out of their dorm rooms...No exceptions...No 2nd chance...
Makes the students of the 60s with their sit ins look intelligent...
How many students have been fatally shot by campus cops? I'd wager the number is zero.
[“The police are a tool of capitalism to control people in the state they are—staying in slavery, staying in poverty wages, staying in ridiculous working conditions.”]
Violent ground-acquisition games, such as football, are, in fact, a crypto-facist metaphor for nuclear war.
What was left of Portland State’s reputation has taken another big hit today. Employers are watching.

I GUARANTEE that if someone was violently attacking these one of these young women they would be damned glad to see a cop with a gun.
Universities today are an alternative universe.
.
I thought it would be more ironic to post the other pic.
We would need about 200 of them.
It never ceases to amaze me, the stupidity of some of these campus protests.
Next, they’ll be complaining that trees are subjected to our carbon dioxide.
Do make believe “die in’s” ever become REAL die in’s?
One can only hope.
Don;t these idiots realize that the less guns law abiding citizens have the MORE guns that COPS need to counter the “Undocumented Gun Owners” ie. CRIMINALS who will use already illegal guns to commit crimes????
Entire state of Oregon is a waste....
No, they don’t...They only think, “Ewwww, he’s got a GUN!!!!”
The guys participate because they want to tap the easy liberal chicks.
