Anti-Israel criminals caused at least $3 million in damage and the need for costly extra security at taxpayer-funded City College’s campus in Upper Manhattan during their violent protests there, officials say.
A protester who threw a flare that torched the roof of the City University of New York school’s administration building caused $350,000 worth of damage alone, said CUNY Chief Operating Officer Hector Batista during recent testimony before the City Council.
Batista said the flare damage was particularly unfortunate because the City Council and state previously provided capital funds to install a new roof.
“It’s costing over $3 million — money that should be going to our academic institution and lifting up our students,” Councilman Eric Dinowitz (D-Bronx), chairman of the council’s Higher Education Committee, said in response to Batista’s information.

Hakkaa päälle!
That’s because these are not protests. They are more like targeted act of war.
And yet J6 people who stayed within the red ropes or were just outside the Capitol are still rotting in D.C. gulags.
Hmmmmmm! And like panty-fuh and $blm, no one will be held accountable. Take a tour around the capital taking some pics——20 yrs in supermax. Just sayin’!
Hey! Councilman Dim-o-witz (D-Bronx) ... your students don't need "lifting up", they need locking up.
Per the article below numerous arrests were made. Hopefully the NY Post will follow up with results when charges are prosecuted.

Pro Terrorist Criminals
the college got what it deserved for allowing such evil human trash on its campus to begin with
it would be smart now if the criminals were prosecuted (with direct repatriation of the Muslim rioters)....the criminals should also be made to pay for the damage they inflicted
nobody has the right to destroy public property
BTTT
And then there are those who were invited in through the front door. Same
treatment.
I hear ya.
I hope their insurance doesnt pay out...
They did nothing to protect the property...
Calling in the police the moment this all started would have helped alleviate some blame towards the college ...
But NOOOO they just let the rioters run wild for days/weeks...
So, in just ONE of these “peaceful” protests, lefties and Muslims caused more damage than on J6. And this was repeated - to one degree or another - at numerous campuses across the country.
The PBS Frontline documentary, “Crisis on Campus,” examines how university leaders, some of whom have faced congressional hearings, navigated the challenges of responding to heated rhetoric and division on their campuses and balancing free speech with the need to prevent harassment and discrimination.
