It's their position as victims that lets them get away with these actions in the first place. Further "victimizing" them will only give them more power. It will let them further capitalize on the "David vs Goliath" war against the university itself, and the media will inevitably side with the underdog victims.
- giardini 11y agoI disagree. Expel them, escort them off campus, get restraining orders to keep them away both physically and virtually. Shut down all of their student accounts and access. When they resist toss 'em in jail and sue them. Responding weakly to this kind of madness (and it _is_ madness) will only lead to anarchy.
- Zikes 11y agoIndividually, they are expressing freedom of speech. What is the basis for expulsion, jail, and civil suits?
- giardini 11y agoNo reason need be given for expulsion. Yale AFAIK is a private university and business and can do as it wishes. The reason for jail would be violation of a restraining order. The reason for civil suit would be damages to the university's image or property. The problem could be cleared out in 3 days and not a stir of it left after a week, were the administration willing to maintain control of their campus.
