  • If this was Turkish students protesting against Erdogan , DW headline would be : Brutal clampdown on Students continues all over the country .
  • Funny how violence always breaks out when the cops show up.
  • Why can't Americans protest that Wallstreet again?
  • @ZecVitaly
    It is not anti-Semitic to call for a ceasefire. The media seems to place a lot of emphasis on the agitators when most protests have been peaceful.
  • I’ve notice the same thing, that this movement is growing at lightening speed compared to the Viet Nam War protests. Generation Z were born into the digital, social media space. At this rate, it wouldn’t surprise me to see Mid-West campuses join in big time, also, I could easily imagine high schools, nationwide, getting active. We don’t know what this Z generation is capable of. I’m 72, but I say, Go Gen Z!
  • So much is the freedom of expression and peaceful protest.. USA should be ashamed....
  • Why not report how Brown or Northwestern handled the situation?
  • Innocent and poor lives doesn't matter...only powerfuls I learned the hardcore truth of today's world
  • those who died for "FREEDOMS" all those years in america have made the ultimate sacrifice for......?
  • bro thinks protests should last several decades before being heard or switch to violent options
  • This coverage missed the obvious comparison to the campus based campaign for divestment from apartheid south africa.
  • @MMA-gb6to
    do you still remember, when hong kong students protested, what did you say?
  • So what are the students using to lock up their bikes if they’re on the building?
  • En Argentina no estan pasando ninguna noticia de lo que esta pasando en la UCLA, es raro, siempre pasan las noticias de EEUU pero esta no. Me entere por redes de este gran acontecimiento.
  • When looking at how quick these protests escalated was cops were tearing down encampments when they were two tents and 5 signs, there was no chance to start slow if they wouldn’t let them start.
  • In India Same thing happened but usa give moral lectures hope they get there own medicine Soon these protests will become violent I am sensing a wild scale protests and can escalate current situation These is not the way to diffuse them
  • @trnogger
    "We dissolved the protest because of outside agitators." - isn't that exactly the pretext Georgia, Russia and Iran use to suppress their citizens opposition?
  • @calj2090
    Lol. But notice the violence isn't from the demonstrators , but those trying to stop them
