'Horrific' violence at UCLA after counter-protesters attack pro-Palestinian camp - Lemmy.World

>Violence erupted at the University of California, Los Angeles after pro-Israeli counter-demonstrators attacked a pro-Palestinian campus encampment. Bubbling tensions on the campus boiled over following the alleged breach of a “buffer zone” between the rival groups.

“Law enforcement simply stood at the edge of the lawn and refused to budge as we screamed for their help,” UC Divest at LA, a group involved in the encampment, said in a statement.

Fucking disgusting, acab

But we mustn’t have evil guns!! The police will protect us, I’m certain of it!

Liberals will never, ever prevail against the fascists unless they pull their collective head out of their collective ass. News flash kids: The fascists are perfectly willing to use violence. And they know you are not.

Guns being present would have only resulted in many MANY deaths. That’s what you want?
If it’s the attackers, then yeah, thats the point. Guns are a deterrent.
Guns are NOT a deterrent. They’re an escalation and most often an unnecessary one.
Nuclear weapons are an escalation, an effective one at that.
Ah yes. Nothing describes a gun better then splitting atoms at a subatomic lebel.
Ah yes, nothing wins an argument better than not understanding it.
