If I pay for something, it's mine by right. I don't pay for privileges that can be taken at whim. The kids mistake is that he couldn't prove he had the right to be there, but it was his RIGHT nevertheless."

No, when you pay for the university facilities it is contingent upon you following the rules. By your reasoning getting a passing grade is a right based on your paying tuition.

The kid violated the 'rights' and safety of all the OTHER students in the library. He lost his 'right' when he became disruptive and broke the law when he refused to leave.

"No, when you pay for the university facilities it is contingent upon you following the rules. By your reasoning getting a passing grade is a right based on your paying tuition. "

Nonsense. Being fairly graded is as much of a right as using the library once tuition is paid.

"The kid violated the 'rights' and safety of all the OTHER students in the library.

How so?

"He lost his 'right' when he became disruptive and broke the law when he refused to leave."

Disruptive - 1. Causing disturbance to peace or order.

By that definition, he wasn't disruptive. Law enforcement was disruptive by grabbing him as he was leaving.
