Sen. Murphy says he’s not ‘criminally offended’ by pro-Palestinian protests that are peaceful
The Hill ^ | 04/28/2024 | MIRANDA NAZZARO

Posted on 04/28/2024 11:30:37 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) on Sunday argued the rights of those participating in peaceful pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses should be protected, pointing to the country’s history of multi-day demonstrations.

Asked on “Fox News Sunday” about the GOP calls for the Biden administration to be more forceful in quelling the protests, Murphy said, “We should… all speak out, right? When [a] protest crosses a line, when it becomes violent or when there’s hate speech.”

The RATs are not offended by anything truly criminal.
They are very offended by folks who actually know economics, history, and science.

“Offended” is not a word which can be associated with criminality, even if the left wants it to be.

Hypocrites all over DC and the country.🦨🦨🦨🦨🐍🐍🐍🐍

Popular vote magnet? I’m for it. All the way.
Controversial? Needs more study. Get back to you.
Other side is now getting more sympathy? I have revised my opinions based on new information.
Selling out the Jews will gain for Arab votes? Those poor Hamas refugees are the reason we need a ceasefire now.

" pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses should be protected"

NO - THEY SHOULD BE EDUCATED!!

Historical and biblical truth - The “Palestinian refugees” are neither Palestinian nor refugees.

Here are the facts! https://www.frontpagemag.com/__trashed-14/

He is a Hate-Enabler.
Quick to rationalize violent chaos, when against a group he already doesn’t like.

Did this guy even graduate from elementary school? Or did any of the ‘tards who voted for him do so? They must be the epitome of “low information voter” and even “low IQ voter”. The pro-Palestinian fools (who couldn’t even find Palestine on a map) are preaching genocide of Jews and death to America, and doofus here has no problem with it, since it’s “peaceful”. What would he call violent? When they run him over with a truck?

They have a First Amendment right to protest. But that doesn’t include hassling other students or interrupting the operation of the college.

The peaceful extermination of the Jews should be OK with Murphy.

If they are harassing people or shutting down schools than they should be removed but people do have the right to protest even if they are stupid.

Blocking people from freedom of movement is not “peaceful” in any way.

"American Jews, you vote 80 percent Democrat, what are you gonna do?"

They'll continue to vote Democrat. Example. They think Chuck Schumer supports them. Well the recent funding bill contains 3.5 billion dollars to expedite the immigration of Jew haters to the U.S. Schumer knew that money was in the bill. And he voted for it. Nevertheless Jews will continue to vote for him and donate to the Democrat Party. I mean, how could they ever consider voting for Republicans?

I am sure though that as a reliable Lefty Democrat, Senator Murphy is “criminally offended” by peaceful and non-disruptive anti-abortion protesters outside abortion clinics. Disruptive demonstrators on college campuses aligned with terrorist Hamas and calling for the killing of Jews is not criminal for Senator Murphy, but peaceful protesters and rosary prayers near abortion clinics is criminal lest any babies escape the killing apparatus and an abortion clinic miss out on fee income.
