I remember that day. I was awaiting graduation from Albany State and had scores of LEO applications in across the state. My 54 year old mind tells me that many revolutionary icons can (and do) forget the vigor and fire that they had when they themselves were young. While property value is important, human rights are so much more important. Protests are the defining factor and part of the framework of this nation, as flawed as it may be at times. When one protests, one must use the same process as they did in the 60s. Nonviolence is key.
Amen! Righteous! Like you say, we can't ever forget what it was like being that age! And, as we both say, so long as matters are protested in peace, then let the protests continue!
I support the tent protests, and other gatherings, I don’t support anti-semitic speech; but I also expect if I’m supporting disrupting university activity I will be arrested…and I should take that as a point of respect for that to happen.
I concur and add that if we could only secure the "intelligent" protesters from the "distress" that infiltrate the groups and hide themselves in the middle and outskirts of the groups, using violent attacks and /or methods to enrich by destroying property for entry and taking.
However, to note that in history, even in Biblical history, to make change or achieve control, BLOOD was shed. But that can be changed, "Les We Remember."

These activities are a shadow of the civil rights and anti-war protests in the 60s.🤨

Yes, indeed!
