George Washington University on Tuesday suspended a student group that projected pro-Hamas and anti-Semitic images onto the school's library. Just one day later, the group's leader defied the suspension, spearheading a campus protest that targeted the school president's home.
Lance Lokas, a junior at the university who as of February served as president of its Students for Justice in Palestine chapter, wielded a megaphone as he led scores of anti-Israel protesters on a Wednesday afternoon march through campus, the Washington Free Beacon witnessed while on the scene. Protest attendees—including students who have been photographed at past Students for Justice in Palestine demonstrations—congregated on campus to chant, "We will honor all our martyrs" before rallying outside of university president Ellen Granberg's home in Foggy Bottom.
The Lokas-led march came one day after the school suspended Lokas's group over an unauthorized, anti-Semitic demonstration that it led late last month. Lokas and other Students for Justice in Palestine members during that demonstration projected pro-Hamas images, including "Glory to our martyrs," onto the school library. The university's suspension bars Lokas's group from using school facilities and organizing campus activities for 90 days, a directive that Lokas and other Students for Justice in Palestine members openly defied during their Wednesday march.
The group's disregard for the suspension will test George Washington University's resolve as the school begins to crack down on anti-Semitic demonstrations that violated its rules. It's unclear if the school will go as far as to expel Lokas and other members of the group—George Washington University is yet to weigh in on the Wednesday march and did not return a request for comment.

Hamas buttboy, Lance Lokas, needs his ass expelled. He doesn’t run the school. He’s just an empty skull full of mush wasting a large sum of money just so he can wear an “I Go To College” sweat shirt.
Something like that, more emphasis on “reported missing”.
The universities were so busy fighting “white nationalists” that they didn’t notice who the real crazies in their midst were.
The greatest threat to US Democracy is Progressive Leftists. The entire world now knows it
Well said.
It's all fun d games until Universities proclaim that conservatives are terrorists and expel them from campuses.
The “white supremacists” are suddenly the latest DNC hoax related to the Hamas terrorists.
They wouldn’t suffer enough for my taste, but I could live with that.
That’s how the future textbooks need to be written.
It’s amazing the lengths colleges will go to to avoid expelling anyone. Spineless is an understatement.
Here is a list of places these students could attend to more effectively ‘honor their martyrs’ than GWU:

They more or less already have. They just want the conservative kids’ money. When it comes to conservative speakers on campus, that’s not going to happen. Conservative speakers are the new terrorists.
The group’s disregard for the suspension will test George Washington University’s resolve
George Washington University Suspended a Proud Boys Student Group. One Day Later, Its Leader Led a March to the School President’s Home.
I wonder how that would have played out
If he is here in a student visa, he should be deported.

is Lance Black or White?
The schools have painted themselves in the corners. They have encouraged and let this crap go on so long that it’s past that invisible line where it can be stopped without real anarchy. It’s kind of a microcosm of the entire culture here. This country has let the left get away with so much for so long that nothing short of violence is going to reign them in. Because they don’t truly believe anybody’s going to try and stop them.
