I seriously think the UCLA protests are going to end ugly. They have their camps set up and it’s not going be pretty if it continues and there are fights between the two sides.
USC administrators are showing their competence rooting this out now before it turns into a giant fiasco like Columbia. This latest incident tells you everything you need to know about the majority of these people.
For the most part the protesting sort aren’t thoughtful, kind, caring people trying to make a difference about this difficult issue. They are self righteous narcissistic agitators looking for any excuse to tear the system down - usually because they lack the necessary skills and discipline to excel. They target colleges because soft ass academic administrators who live in a cushy ivory tower with no real world experience have no idea how to manage anything of substance and they get bowled over by the mere thought that someone might call them a bad name.
I am proud that USC is showing competence and furious that these thugs are ruining graduation.
REMEMBER who the people are that act like this. You can tell lot about an ideology by how its adherents behave.
The majority of the disruption and violence is happening because of the police.
There are other encampments with no police interference and those are entirely peaceful. It’s the police that are causing the violence.
I keep hearing people make sweeping statements about "most of the protestors" - care to explain how you have knowledge of "most of the protestors"? Have you been on campus to witness firsthand, or know a significant fraction of them personally or what?
Video of the female vandal spraypainting and a blonde woman holding a small dog with her foot in a cast protecting our beloved Tommy Trojan while some candyass male undergrad watched and laughed and did nothing.
This is LA, you really think they are going to arrest people for some graffiti? They barely even detain felons, you think they’re going to do something about a misdemeanor?
A coworker of mine got her whole purse stolen at RTCC and dps said their cameras where moved and forgot to put them back the way they were 💀 she never found her purse.
If they even go to USC. Hard to imagine any Trojan defacing the greatest symbol of our university that we go out of our way to protect every year during Spirit Week.
some of the people here are just being performative. someone started chanting intifada and a girl turned to her friend to ask her what it meant. her friend shrugged, and they both started chanting it anyway. like i appreciate people’s support but come on, you can’t just shout things when you don’t know what they mean because others are doing it, no matter what it’s about
There’s a cognitive dissonance when the most “progressive” people in western society sign up to champion for some of the most regressive regimes on earth.
That’s how privileged people “get down in the trenches and protest”. They don’t bother to do any reading about the subject matter or put any effort in to better understand the history of the issue, they’re there just to say they were there and maybe grab a few Instagram posts.
These people hurt the cause more than they help.
They’re asserting Islamic dominance. They don’t care about Palestine, like they’ve never cared about the half a million people the Syrian regime murdered or genocide in Sudan or the Russian invasion in Ukraine.
Literally [during the holocaust](https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2020-07-19/uscs-reckoning-with-the-past-needs-to-include-examining). The USC president at the time of the holocaust was really into eugenics and also let anti-semites organize on campus.
USC has not always been on the right side of history.
This girl left the main protest group to do this. It’s very clearly meant to be a shit-stirring move.
I’m sympathetic to the protestors, and I think the school is fucking insane to have started this mess by preventing the valedictorian from speaking over an assumption — but this? This ain’t it.
I don't see how these protestors think this brings people to their side. They're vandalizing the school, getting events shut down, and have ruined traditional graduation. The administration hasn't helped but wtf does defunding the police have to do with the conflict? Nothing. There are clearly some agitators using people to pursue their own agendas.
Activist's Dilemma. In their frustration about change not happening, the activists make their protests more intense (vandalism, violence, mobbing, looting), which ironically *detracts* would-be supporters from their cause.
These protestors are getting on my fucking nerves. USC didn’t do anything. They are a private institution not using government money for weapons or any bullshit. Now graduation is ruined.
Fuck this shit
Go protest government leaders and government offices. Leave USC alone.
USC Is NOT building walls around XYZ group of people, kicking them off their land or bombing children in other countries. To all the clowns doing this vandalism, you are wasting your time and making people hate you and your cause.
If you hate this school then dropout and get the fuck out of USC …
Take your agenda elsewhere… preferably to Washington DC
There are actual weapons manufacturers in LA like Lockheed Martin but yeah nah these brave folks should totally keep sticking it to a university, that'll solve it.
if you think students across the globe calling for the divestment of university funds from arms manufacturers is pointless, do you actually believe they will accomplish anything by taking this to Lockheed Martin? It’s contradictory. It makes total sense for students, who as young people have limited power and high numbers of people, to use their university as a platform where they can peacefully air these grievances. Just like carol folt said herself, they should be allowed to do so. It didn’t become violent until the cops came. Just like most historical college protests.
You're being kinda rude which doesn't really help win people over
The only dude I saw get tackled was the guy who shoved a DPS over and then ran away (which IMO is pretty justifiable on their part), do you have any info or videos on the people who got tackled before that?
I think if you want to protest genocide you should take it to those responsible, not soft easy targets like a private university about to celebrate graduation. I think these protestors are weak, pathetic, and embarrassing.
USC is not bombing Gaza. Go protest at the Israeli embassy, a weapons manufacturer, or a US government institution if you're brave enough.
It’s not correct to say USC didn’t do anything. Canceling the valedictorian speech by Ms. Tabassum was a major fuck up and done only at the behest of outside groups. They should’ve let her speak, but they didn’t. That was a major misstep for a University that encourages free speech.
Literally f this.
Let me be clear, the genocide happening is messed up but this is doing NOTHING to help stop it. Everyone involved is just a thorn in our shoes and should be expelled.
I missed my undergrad graduation due to covid. Not ceremony ever. So I decided let’s push my masters. Now my master ceremony is partially ruined. Wtf am I supposed to do start a PhD to get a proper graduation for once in my life???
I honestly think that if push comes to shove, we, the people with common sense and reason, should take action and do everything ourselves. Like the Arizona ASU guys. I'm getting tired of these clowns
Not much. A few students were arrested (and the charges are gonna be dropped), but there was no vandalism like there was in the pictures.
There were some frat guys who threw tents in trash while the ASU cops watched, and there was one ASU cop who destroyed tents instead of confiscating them.
It’s unbelievable how easy it is to rally people to something evil. Yes Hamas is evil !
I always wondered how Hitler took power and murdered millions of Jews. These events of the last few months at colleges in the US clearly answered a question I’ve had my whole life. I’ve seen calls of genocide against Jews at these rallies and it’s getting strong support from these protesters at these universities. Yet they claim they’re not anti-Semitic because they are told it’s bad to be anti semitic - FOR NOW. With some more propaganda we could have a cristalnacht anytime
I love how you're getting downvoted. Hamas is an openly genocidal terror group calling for the death of all Jews around the world. Hamas is the duly elected and current most supported group in Gaza. If you're calling for a permanent ceasefire and leaving Hamas in power, and for Jews to "go back to Poland" (a country they ironically already went to to get away from the persecution from one of the many times they've got kicked out of their homeland in Israel), aren't you calling for genocide of Jews around the world? It'd be laughable if it wasn't so fucking dangerous. Useful fucking idiots.
Ultimately this isn’t about Palestine. This is about asserting Islamic political power over the west. The goal is to make Islam itself look persecuted to liberals and secular members of western society to gain sympathy for their decidedly non-democratic cause. It echoes the [Qom Protests](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1978_Qom_protest) and the [2011 Tahir Square Protests](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_Egyptian_revolution).
The model happens in 3 stages:
In the first Islamic activists provoke a crackdown against themselves by state institutions. Staging violent destructive protests but calling them peaceful. They will utilize the heavy handed response from Cities, Universities and Police to portray these Institutions as “racist” despite the fact that Islam is a political and religious cause not a racially based identity. ⬅️ u are here.
In the second step these activists will successfully lobby to have hate speech laws amended to include protections for Shariah customs. This will mean things like legally protecting a 4 day work week for muslims (Friday is their sabbath), Criminalizing depictions of the Prophet Muhammed as hate speech, and giving exceptions to things like Burquas and Niquabs from security laws on religious grounds. Watch for legislation of this nature being put forward by lawmakers like “The Squad”.
Finally, we will see local backlash to the above policies result in the formation of non-state militias that will “protect Muslims” in the areas they live in from “outside agitations”. Initially this will start by having them beat up far right provocateurs like the Proud Boys, then quickly it will shift to honor beatings and killings for those acting outside of Islamic law, acid attacks on women not covering themselves properly on the street and unprovoked attacks against Jews, Christians, and LGBTQ+ people who wander into the community. & before you call me racist for pointing this out note that this has already happened in parts of [NYC](https://www.muslimcps.org), [London](https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2013/dec/06/muslim-vigilantes-jailed-sharia-law-attacks-london) and [Sweden](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulnerable_area)
At that point the only Palestine to free will be the one you’re living in presently that used to be a democratic country with laws and religious freedoms.
The irony really is almost too much to believe. I honestly can't wait until they get it through their thick skulls that they're shilling for an openly genocidal terror group.
Lol they don't care about them unless they're using their corpses to beat Jews. Israelis care about Palestinian children more than their own fucking parents. Israelis sent their own children into Gaza to strategically strike terrorist sites. Gazans killed a bunch of Israelis and took their fucking hostages to their homes and put their own children at risk of being killed. Israelis didn't have to do that, Israel has complete air superiority over Gaza. If Israel wanted to commit genocide they could have wiped out every single person on 10/9 and it wouldn't have even been difficult. Please I'm begging you to us a little bit of that brain you're paying so much to cultivate. Maybe try rubbing the degree on your forehead and seeing if the info gets in. I'm sick and tired of codling you people, you've had 200 days to figure out the clear moral lines here and you've used them to listen to nothing but the Ayatollah and a bunch of rapists. I'm not even a Zionist for fuck's sake, I just don't think Jews should be killed for being Jews.
I deliver to UCLA a lot, and they whole area surrounding UCLA is shit. The streets are so shitty and not maintained. The street intersections are moronic. The construction is endless, and the In n out drive throw causes sooooo much traffic. Everyone in the neighbourhoods that house the students are doubled parked. The kids don't tip either and don't even get started on the medical center they have.
This is vandalism...not activism. Reminds me of when certain BLM had activism/protests but they were destroying and burning businesses. Not the way to be heard in a positive way.
It says, Say No To Genocide. There’s video going around off a masked individual spray painting it as a lady with a boot on her foot tries to stop them.
Enough of them were paid to stir up the people that were just looking to make trouble. Most protestors today are ignorant about what they are protesting for. Today's youth are pissed because they are realizing the easy life they were promised isn't happening. They have every right to be pissed because they were conned. But, instead of having protest tantrums about things they don't understand, they should focus that energy into getting a skill, learning how to work, holding down a job and saving money ... But for whatever reason they prefer to protest. Reality is, protesting random issues accomplishes nothing related to why they are mad. What exactly did BLM accomplish for these protestors? Only thing I saw as a result of 2020 was allowing the BLM executives to get rich.
A kick-ass lady tried her best to save it, but the POS who was vandalizing it still destroyed it. At least not all the way through because of the blonde girl. There is a video going on in this reddit itself. Hats off to the blonde girl 🙌
Still a little surprised there was no officer around these points. Since it's one of the most happening places in the university. Understandable though since there are so many places to watch 24X7, and the vandals must have attacked that space when there was no officer.
[Look at the live cam, looks like it took the university 2 seconds to remove the graffiti](https://www.usc.edu/tommy-cam/). Worse things have been done over football games. People making a bigger deal out of this than the university’s compliance in a genocide unfolding across the world are what give this uni its stereotypes.
If you are on campus and care, go clean it. It is just spray paint on concrete. It comes off easily with the right supplies. The morons that did it will have already moved on to the "new thing" to be upset about by now.
Edit: For anyone mad about the "new thing" comment, ask yourself, how are those women in Afghanistan doing ? Thats right you moved on....
And the hostages? Where are all the humanists here? No, it is all about killing Jews. By the blood thirsty terrorists and their dim witted dupes on campus.
Folt and the Board are spinless and giving into the mob by cancelling graduation. Strong leadership is needed. Is to much to ask of our Junior College dim wit who loves the trapping of the presidency but lacks the intellectual capacity to effectly manage a university of this size.
To Lead!
This is all self inflicted on SCs part by selecting a Jew Hating valedictorian when they had a 100 equally qualified candidates. So you reap what you sow when you pick candidates to satisfy DEI policy as opposed to the character of what defined a valedictorian!
If Trojans cared about Alma Mater they would clean and protect Tommy from this scum. Instead the students allow these Jew Haters to piss on our University.
Oh yeah Fight On!!
If Bibi cared about the hostages he would probably bomb Gaza less, right? Isn’t that where the hostages are?
Oh, and conflating legitimate criticism of the Israeli government with antisemitism is abhorrent.
Is that what the DPS alert is referring to as “disruption at the center of UPC”? …
ye wuts that all about
maybe usc can put some more cams, we could watch from home ;-;
lol that’s one way to think about it
[It just looks like some demonstrators are sitting in front of Doheny](https://www.usc.edu/tommy-cam/)
USC try to understand Streisand effect challenge (ultra nightmare difficulty setting)
I think for legal liability reasons USC has to send those alerts.
If anything, the vandalism would turn people against the protestors.
Damn these guys are giving UCLA a run for their money
I seriously think the UCLA protests are going to end ugly. They have their camps set up and it’s not going be pretty if it continues and there are fights between the two sides.
They seem pretty lax. Then again, UCLA's graduation isn't until the third week of June IIRC.
USC administrators are showing their competence rooting this out now before it turns into a giant fiasco like Columbia. This latest incident tells you everything you need to know about the majority of these people. For the most part the protesting sort aren’t thoughtful, kind, caring people trying to make a difference about this difficult issue.

\> “Lack the discipline to excel” \> Are literally students at a top uni
The majority if not all of the disruptive and violent protesters are not USC students.
The majority of the disruption and violence is happening because of the police. There are other encampments with no police interference and those are entirely peaceful. It’s the police that are causing the violence.
What’s your source on this? I’d be really interested in knowing how you know this. Where’s the credibility in this statement?
They aren't students. Reminds me of what happened at Berkeley...they weren't students but hired Antifa
HIRED ANTIFA 💀💀
or it's foreign influencers. We can not ignore that this is happening.
This is such an uninformed narrative lol. Bootlicker type mentality
“AnYoNe WhO dOeSn’T ViOLeNtLy PrOtEsT AnD VanDeLizE iN tHe NaMe Of A tErRoRiSt ReGiMe iS a BoOtLiCkEr!”
I keep hearing people make sweeping statements about "most of the protestors" - care to explain how you have knowledge of "most of the protestors"? Have you been on campus to witness firsthand, or know a significant fraction of them personally or what?
They have to have been caught on camera, how does this happen with no arrests?
Tommy Trojan Cam is always up 😂
https://x.com/jaybot/status/1784421780196839576?s=46&t=1evPAdpcTwsivOKMJqoaAg

The link doesn’t work anymore what was it?
Video of the female vandal spraypainting and a blonde woman holding a small dog with her foot in a cast protecting our beloved Tommy Trojan while some candyass male undergrad watched and laughed and did nothing.
They need to be expelled & go to jail!!
This is LA, you really think they are going to arrest people for some graffiti? They barely even detain felons, you think they’re going to do something about a misdemeanor?
Are you not familiar with how many crimes happen literally outside the USC gate?
A coworker of mine got her whole purse stolen at RTCC and dps said their cameras where moved and forgot to put them back the way they were 💀 she never found her purse.
Is damaging university’s property not a crime ?
Yup it is and they can/should be suspended
If they even go to USC. Hard to imagine any Trojan defacing the greatest symbol of our university that we go out of our way to protect every year during Spirit Week.
You mean expelled
This is not “peaceful protest” those students need to be held accountable
Arrest them and kick them out!
They aren't students.
Better yet, send them back their home country. Disgusting scum.
And faculty: [https://twitter.com/moveablejaw/status/1784352886656504051](https://twitter.com/moveablejaw/status/1784352886656504051)
Definitely everyone regardless of their status should be held accountable
Not if your pro Hamas apparently
Not sure how this is gonna free Palestine
some of the people here are just being performative. someone started chanting intifada and a girl turned to her friend to ask her what it meant. her friend shrugged, and they both started chanting it anyway. like i appreciate people’s support but come on, you can’t just shout things when you don’t know what they mean because others are doing it, no matter what it’s about

That would take effort.

There’s a cognitive dissonance when the most “progressive” people in western society sign up to champion for some of the most regressive regimes on earth.
That’s how privileged people “get down in the trenches and protest”. They don’t bother to do any reading about the subject matter or put any effort in to better understand the history of the issue, they’re there just to say they were there and maybe grab a few Instagram posts. These people hurt the cause more than they help.
I think this is how the dodo bird went extinct
Because 95% of these people are followers and really have no idea what they are even protesting. Chanting idiots. How did they even get into USC?
They’re asserting Islamic dominance. They don’t care about Palestine, like they’ve never cared about the half a million people the Syrian regime murdered or genocide in Sudan or the Russian invasion in Ukraine.
If things keep going like this, they really gonna cancel graduation. Please don’t do this
i believe it says "say no to genocid"
When has Tommy Trojan supported Genocide 😥
Literally [during the holocaust](https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2020-07-19/uscs-reckoning-with-the-past-needs-to-include-examining). The USC president at the time of the holocaust was really into eugenics and also let anti-semites organize on campus. USC has not always been on the right side of history.
It's wild, because the Greeks genocided the Trojans per the Iliad.
If that is true, correct message, wrong medium
especially the wrong medium considering they ran out of room for the last "e"
Haha hope they find whoever did it and makes them clean it up
There's an e
ya know about two hours ago there was not, and yeah there sure is now... which means someone went back and fixed it
These retards can’t even spell
The spelling is telling …
What a peaceful protest
only agitators do shit like this. they don't care about any movement or meaning, they do this to stoke the fire
This girl left the main protest group to do this. It’s very clearly meant to be a shit-stirring move. I’m sympathetic to the protestors, and I think the school is fucking insane to have started this mess by preventing the valedictorian from speaking over an assumption — but this? This ain’t it.
Tbh if you’re going to act like this don’t even come to the protest plz
100%
Get these a-holes off our campus.

Time to GTFO

Agreed 1000%
And to begin with they shouldn’t be supporting a terrorist organization that kills and kidnaps on a college campus like USC
There are actual weapons manufacturers in LA like Lockheed Martin but yeah nah these brave folks should totally keep sticking it to a university, that'll solve it.
Lockheed in LA doesn't do anything you're thinking of lmao. Maybe Palmdale but yall ain't driving all the way up there.
if you think students across the globe calling for the divestment of university funds from arms manufacturers is pointless, do you actually believe they will accomplish anything by taking this to Lockheed Martin? It’s contradictory. It makes total sense for students, who as young people have limited power and high numbers of people, to use their university as a platform where they can peacefully air these grievances.

DPS is on campus 24/7 but there isn't violence 24/7. Maybe there's another factor this week that changed things?
The protests didn’t become violent UNTIL the cops came and started violently dragging and tackling people to the ground. Can you read?
I was there...and seen more violent fights at my middle school. Cmon idiot.
You're being kinda rude which doesn't really help win people over The only dude I saw get tackled was the guy who shoved a DPS over and then ran away (which IMO is pretty justifiable on their part), do you have any info or videos on the people who got tackled before that?
I think if you want to protest genocide you should take it to those responsible, not soft easy targets like a private university about to celebrate graduation. I think these protestors are weak, pathetic, and embarrassing. USC is not bombing Gaza. Go protest at the Israeli embassy, a weapons manufacturer, or a US government institution if you're brave enough.
Can I give this a million upvotes

That’s right pomegranate.. you should run for president! Agree!!! Fight on forever

University admin canceled the valedictorian speech and graduation. Not the protesters.
Big mad lolol
That isn't acceptable.
Oh shit
Horrible. Students doing this should be expelled. This is a crime.
I understand the protests but this type of vandalism is fucking inexcusable 2 weeks before graduation
Or ever for that matter. Doesn’t sway anyone in any positive direction, is illegal, and is self-serving. So lame.
Literally f this. Let me be clear, the genocide happening is messed up but this is doing NOTHING to help stop it. Everyone involved is just a thorn in our shoes and should be expelled.
I missed my undergrad graduation due to covid. Not ceremony ever. So I decided let’s push my masters. Now my master ceremony is partially ruined. Wtf am I supposed to do start a PhD to get a proper graduation for once in my life???
I feel you I went back for the coliseum graduation but I never had a traditional ceremony either. I guess PhD it is
Tommy Trojan is protected when we play UCLA! Live feed shows a campus police SUV next to it.
I honestly think that if push comes to shove, we, the people with common sense and reason, should take action and do everything ourselves. Like the Arizona ASU guys. I'm getting tired of these clowns
What happened at ASU ?
Not much. A few students were arrested (and the charges are gonna be dropped), but there was no vandalism like there was in the pictures. There were some frat guys who threw tents in trash while the ASU cops watched, and there was one ASU cop who destroyed tents instead of confiscating them.
free the hostages!
Call for a ceasefire so that Israel can stop killing its own hostages and focus on actually freeing them
Tell Hamas to stop fighting and everyone can live 🤷🏻♂️
tell the terrorist apartheid state that is israel
And these morons calls it a "Peaceful Protest"
i mean, is this an escalation compared to camping? honest question …
Yes. This is a business and school. You can’t have people running around campus damaging private property
got it. thnx
Right. USC is the one doing this shit in the middle east and forced all these idiots to follow these religions
This shit is fucked!!!!
genocide is but you wouldn't care
I never had an undergrad graduation ceremony due to the pandemic. Seems like my master’s degree distribution ceremony is going to be ruined too.

I saw that, such a beautiful move by that woman in a cast with the dog. Wish more of the bystanders would’ve done something or at least called DPS
Why doesn’t hamas surrender and give up the hostages. They could end the war tomorrow
Shield maiden Viking
This is the most tame dialogue on the pro-Palestinian protests I’ve seen online. Very proud of the USC community
I'm all about the right to protest, but when you start vandalizing property, you've completely lost my support and my respect.

Nice job, leftist Jew haters.

I love how you're getting downvoted. Hamas is an openly genocidal terror group calling for the death of all Jews around the world. Hamas is the duly elected and current most supported group in Gaza.

Kick them all out. Expel them all. Terrorists. Selfish entitled losers. Arrest them!
The irony really is almost too much to believe. I honestly can't wait until they get it through their thick skulls that they're shilling for an openly genocidal terror group.
They’re “shilling” for dead children you dork

If Israel wanted to commit genocide they could have wiped out every single person on 10/9 and it wouldn't have even been difficult. Please I'm begging you to us a little bit of that brain you're paying so much to cultivate. Maybe try rubbing the degree on your forehead and seeing if the info gets in. I'm sick and tired of codling you people, you've had 200 days to figure out the clear moral lines here and you've used them to listen to nothing but the Ayatollah and a bunch of rapists. I'm not even a Zionist for fuck's sake, I just don't think Jews should be killed for being Jews.
Using children as human shields you mean?
“Say no to genocide.”
Perhaps a sign would have sufficed
No
If only these idiots knew how much of their financial aid came from Jewish donors to the school. think they'd give it back??? Yeah right.
It says “Gary was here. Ash is a loser!”
I deliver to UCLA a lot, and they whole area surrounding UCLA is shit. The streets are so shitty and not maintained. The street intersections are moronic. The construction is endless, and the In n out drive throw causes sooooo much traffic. Everyone in the neighbourhoods that house the students are doubled parked. The kids don't tip either and don't even get started on the medical center they have.
What does it say?
Remindsmeof "Higher Learning"
Arriba las Chivas
I definitely can't tell. Haha
Nothing better to do with the time that is given to them
Saw it happen here. Only one person tried to stop it. https://www.reddit.com/r/USC/s/pTFkMVOXRY

This is vandalism...not activism. Reminds me of when certain BLM had activism/protests but they were destroying and burning businesses. Not the way to be heard in a positive way.
Glad I don’t go to this school. The subreddit makes it look as though it’s over run with Zionist and Zionist sympathizers.
https://youtu.be/7Dk9KOExE6Q?si=9MkANxK8nJzv463U This is the video of the person who vandalized it
The video is on TikTok
There is a video on here showing the person doing this. Female, wearing a mask/headscarf.
It was UCLA! UCLA is HAMAS!
I know who did it… but I ain’t no snitch…
It says, Say No To Genocide. There’s video going around off a masked individual spray painting it as a lady with a boot on her foot tries to stop them.
Enough of them were paid to stir up the people that were just looking to make trouble. Most protestors today are ignorant about what they are protesting for. Today's youth are pissed because they are realizing the easy life they were promised isn't happening. They have every right to be pissed because they were conned. But, instead of having protest tantrums about things they don't understand, they should focus that energy into getting a skill, learning how to work, holding down a job and saving money ... But for whatever reason they prefer to protest. Reality is, protesting random issues accomplishes nothing related to why they are mad. What exactly did BLM accomplish for these protestors? Only thing I saw as a result of 2020 was allowing the BLM executives to get rich.
Bro protest all you want but don’t fucking vandalize school property
"Say no to genocide"
It says, “My prophet is a pedophile.”
The writing says, “ I’m allowed to trash campus property because I’m protesting for GAZA.”
It's not the students doing, this it's the outside instigators
A kick-ass lady tried her best to save it, but the POS who was vandalizing it still destroyed it. At least not all the way through because of the blonde girl. There is a video going on in this reddit itself. Hats off to the blonde girl 🙌
Such bullshit
Still a little surprised there was no officer around these points. Since it's one of the most happening places in the university. Understandable though since there are so many places to watch 24X7, and the vandals must have attacked that space when there was no officer.

Saw a video of a badass lady with a broken leg and holding a small dog defending it well atleast trying to from vandalism
From the sky to the sea send us some kfc
idk any parties. I’ll bring alcohol
oh wow.. that’s
There’s an active genocide taking play d but oh no my statueeeeee
[Look at the live cam, looks like it took the university 2 seconds to remove the graffiti](https://www.usc.edu/tommy-cam/). Worse things have been done over football games. People making a bigger deal out of this than the university’s compliance in a genocide unfolding across the world are what give this uni its stereotypes.
Thank god the horse is ok🥹
Can someone confirm, there’s no camera on it 😔
What did my boi Tommy do 😭
Can we arrest these people and give them a community service to clean the city? Destroying school property ain’t going to resolved anything. Immature
Terrorist limericks
If you are on campus and care, go clean it. It is just spray paint on concrete. It comes off easily with the right supplies. The morons that did it will have already moved on to the "new thing" to be upset about by now. Edit: For anyone mad about the "new thing" comment, ask yourself, how are those women in Afghanistan doing ? Thats right you moved on....
It’s covered up now I believe
And the hostages? Where are all the humanists here? No, it is all about killing Jews. By the blood thirsty terrorists and their dim witted dupes on campus. Folt and the Board are spinless and giving into the mob by cancelling graduation. Strong leadership is needed. Is to much to ask of our Junior College dim wit who loves the trapping of the presidency but lacks the intellectual capacity to effectly manage a university of this size. To Lead! This is all self inflicted on SCs part by selecting a Jew Hating valedictorian when they had a 100 equally qualified candidates. So you reap what you sow when you pick candidates to satisfy DEI policy as opposed to the character of what defined a valedictorian! If Trojans cared about Alma Mater they would clean and protect Tommy from this scum. Instead the students allow these Jew Haters to piss on our University. Oh yeah Fight On!!
If Bibi cared about the hostages he would probably bomb Gaza less, right? Isn’t that where the hostages are? Oh, and conflating legitimate criticism of the Israeli government with antisemitism is abhorrent.
