NYC Mayor and NYPD PC have released new information showing that approximately 48% of individuals arrested on Tuesday evening at Columbia and City College NY protests were unaffiliated with the schools.

[Darksheare]

And they were just let go, probably.

Dropping the other shoe——who the heck are they, then?

Old time Communist Party USA? Leftover SDS? Various Soros paid actors?

It’s a wonder they have time on their accrued vacation days from their jobs to allow them the luxury of hanging out in a tent for two or three weeks. Nice work if you can get it.

Actually, as always WE are paying their way through tax money.

[george76]

Soros rent a mob?

[metmom]

That’s hardly unexpected.

Bring in the outsiders to stir up trouble and many of the brainwashed useful idiots will join them, not even really understanding what is really going on.

[Paladin2]

BiXiden insurrectionists.

[frank ballenger]

Rent a mob still has to be around.

Rocks and bottles I will lob
at cops out doing their job
I’m in a Soros mob
and I’ll make the Trumpers sob.

[JustaTech]

No doubt they were innocents swept up in the moment.
People visiting friends on campus, food delivery people, window washers who caught mob fever and became window smashers, a few who just accidentally wandered in while looking for a place to pee.

No planning, no common elements or funders, just random people who happened to be there because everyone has to be somewhere.

Yeah, that’s Shirley how it was.

The commies are changing the narrative to “INNOCENT LIBERAL COLLEGE STUDENTS JUST REALLY WANT PEACE.” They are not radical hypocrites. It’s just some fringe crazies that are the problem, not good democrats and college “students.”

[jjotto]

There’s already a class action lawsuit against Columbia.

Presumably, it’s understood that without punitive damages in the billion dollar plus range, the kook administration there won’t change.

They can laugh off anything in the mere millions. Not their money.

[vpintheak]

And they were employed by? And the useful idiot students were expelled?

[PGR88]

When I was in university, “divest South Africa” was the big fashion

I attended a rally once. I was shocked how many people were not from the university. A lot of dirty looking people, hippies, druggies and activists who clearly weren’t students

[Mark17]

In my best Gomer Pyle accent, surprise, surprise, surprise.

[KingofZion]

Nice to know, they can all be jailed.

The rest can be expelled from the university, with major student loan debt (at least until Biden wipes it out)

[Sequoyah101]

Organized professionally and paid to be there. How much were blm protesters paid? Anyone remember?

[Georgia Girl 2]

Shocking! 🙄

[piasa]

Like J6

Obama had an agitator training group out in California

[piasa]

A bunch of Marxist agitators who thrive in the shadows, being subsidized by the taxpayer.

A lot of this country’s problems would shrivel on the vine if the welfare state housing, fake disability and food payments were slashed.

[nickcarraway]

People are are ignoring the fact that that means that over 50% were from Columbia.
