Because they feel entitled to speak, treat and create problems instead of solutions. Getting loud and crazy doesn't mean you're right with your views or beliefs. They look immature and uneducated if anything. In other words... ghetto.

I studied in business-related program at SUNY Binghamton some time ago. Back then, the students from the "less rigorous" departments, as we politely called them, would stage "die-ins" in front of our building because "capitalism kills".

We used to stand inside where it was nice and warm sipping coffee and laughing at them through the big windows.

It might be fun to go for a stroll on campus NEXT November. :)

That video is an indictment of education in general and society as a whole. Logic and rhetorical debate have been cast aside in favor of histrionics, volume, and vulgarity. Sadly those vulgar and inarticulate young people not only incorrectly consider themselves intelligent and righteous, they receive artificial validation by being admitted to a prestigious university that then apparently fails to educate them on civility, rhetoric, or logic. If I were a student enrolled at BU, I'd show this video to administrators and demand a refund of my clearly wasted tuition money. One hundred dollars says the shrieking students are "Social Justice" majors of some sort in the school of Human Development.

Vote anti-establishment candidates at all costs or this will be your new normal. I'm actually happy it finally happened locally. I've been watching these mentally ill college student videos from all across the country for a few years now. They all say the same thing so it is highly organized and funded. Most likely by Soros. 

Was Bob Joseph screaming along with them? He claims all of this kind of thing is just Trump supporter conspiracy theory. He really needs to stick to local topics. He is dumb as hell on national politics.

Saw the video over the weekend, and just saw BU's press release. They're blaming it on the fact that the "conservative students" didn't properly register to set their tables up.

1:45 pm

 
VESTAL (WBNG) — Binghamton University Vice President Brian Rose has addressed protests that occurred Nov. 14 on campus in an official press release sent to students on Monday.

The press release reads:

On Thursday, Nov. 14, two groups tabling outside of the Union attracted counter-protesters. The tension between the groups tabling and protesters became volatile and University Police intervened to remove the tabling groups in the interest of the safety of all involved.

Social media posts have misrepresented the course of events and encouraged political pressure upon the University based upon those misrepresentations. What actually transpired and how the University did and will respond is as follows:

The College Republicans, an organization chartered by the Student Association (SA), was joined by another group known as Turning Point that, by its own choice, is not chartered by the SA or otherwise recognized by the University. Representatives of the two groups set up tables outside the Union in a reservable space without having followed procedures to properly secure use of the space. Representatives of the Union professional staff and of the SA notified the tabling students that they were tabling without reservation in a space that had to be reserved in advance and asked them to relocate. The groups refused twice to move. The groups’ display included provocative posters with gun imagery, this being the same day as the Saugus High School shooting. Self-evidently from the nature of their display and their refusal to comply with procedures for reserving the space in question, the groups intended to be provocative. Social media activity suggesting they were handing out hot chocolate and promoting an upcoming lecture fail to accurately represent the context.

Students offended by the display and disapproving of the views of the two tabling organizations gathered around the tables in increasing number. University Police were alerted by several members of the University community and responded to monitor the escalating situation. Counter-protesters began pulling down the tables and sweeping the political literature and materials of the tabling groups into boxes in an attempt to close down the tabling activity. This increased the volatility of the situation and University Police stepped in between students from the tabling groups and protesting students to try to maintain safety. Eventually the police directed the tabling groups to abandon the area and escorted them away. Some protesters viewed the actions of police as protecting the tabling students based upon race and directed chants at police. The escalating situation was successfully defused without physical injury to anyone present.

The University’s response was and will be guided by principles and values related to safety, equity, free expression and reason. As the College Republicans were advised prior to the incident escalating, they had violated applicable procedures related to reserving the space in question. The purpose of those procedures is to avoid conflicts among groups for use of the space and to allow the University to safely manage activity in this area. Had the group followed procedures, the University would have had the opportunity to plan for what was self-evidently a provocative presentation in a manner that may have facilitated expressive activity by both the tabling groups and those who wished to demonstrate against them. Any future action taken against the College Republicans will pertain to their violation of University and SA policies and procedures and not to the content of their message. The University will also work with the SA to ensure that there is clarity and understanding around policies and procedures related to the use of space by campus-affiliated groups and others, and will review how to best respond to those violating these policies and procedures.

There were also protesters who acted in a manner that may have violated University rules. In the context of the incident and in keeping with the principles and values noted above, the University did not seek to identify or charge any protesters. To do so would have escalated an already volatile situation and run counter to the primary interest in safely de-escalating the situation. In other circumstances, the University has taken action against individuals infringing upon expressive activity without regard to viewpoint. Our response has and will continue to take into account the full context in each instance.

We acknowledge the larger political context in our country that is polarizing our society. It is unfortunate that interests external to the campus have seized upon this incident and attempted to mischaracterize it to feed their own narrative and to attempt to influence our response. We will not be responding to those external voices or altering our approach as a result of external pressure. We will continue to work within our community to facilitate the expression of the many diverse viewpoints that are present on our campus, to encourage members of our community to respect one another through disagreement, to maintain a safe campus community and to exercise professional judgment fairly to achieve those ends.

Brian T. Rose
Vice President for Student Affairs

The Binghamton University Students Association says it will continue to work with students’ rights to protest and assemble.

They didn't get permission to put their tables up.  In no way do they deserve the treatment they received.  They showed remarkable restraint.  I have never seen such low-class behavior or heard such foul language.  How incredibly rude.  This is our future - I am disgusted.

Bob Joseph's reporting on the incident makes the same point about them not getting the correct permits to set their tables up.

MY QUESTION: Did the reported 200 counter protesters get a PERMIT to gather and overthrow their tables??? Has anyone asked that question?

What a f**king joke Binghamton University and Bob Joseph are. One sided narrative as usual. Enemies of the people. Big Soros lapdogs is all they are.

Shameful yet fast becoming the norm for bizarro academia, populated by the entitled generation and the weakling administrators who never fail to rise to the top of the academic circus. 

These idiotic brainwashed students are far too dumbed down and entitled to recognize their own fascist behavior in what is supposed to be the enlightened environment of a university campus. Disgusting. 

And VP Rose's lame response about improper tabling and protesters acting in a manner which MAY HAVE VIOLATED University rules is shameful at best. One can only imagine the severe repercussions had College Republicans turned over tables of a minority based organization that they disagreed with that hadn't followed proper "tabling procedures". Rose is obviously too steeped in academia and too fearful to act accordingly with needed consequences. Ironically and tragically, his sad assed attempt to "de-escalate" will most assuredly guarantee more of the same with violence as the next natural escalation. Human Nature 101. Somewhere somehow a line must be drawn and these fascist deniers of free speech have to be called on their unlawful actions.

But obviously now at BU is neither the time nor place. The concept of the college "safe space" must selectively be race and gendered based and "tabling reservation rules" on public property override the 1st Amendment. Sad day at my Alma Mater....with more to come.

I’ll about guarantee that ghetto trash yelling “suck my d%&$” didn’t know or care if they were registered or not. Also, notice they/someone immediately brought up the gun pics and the fact that there was just a shooting that day...trying to fit that in...as if they were fearful. They were brazen as all hell.

Once again, I'm with Toup...those racists had no idea the status of the permits...what's that, like the Benghazi defense?  I believe if you listen closely one of the students states they have a permit.

Doesn't BU have a code of conduct?

Please tell me the "suck my dick" chick is a nursing student. 

"Why are you shaking?" For future reference the republicans should have told them...

You're Breeding is showing.

Remember folks these are the same "SUNY" students who elect our local officials. City Council, Vestal Town Board, etc. In fact the SUNY campus has so many registered voters it has 2 Election districts to cover it. Thankfully I wont be around in 20 years.

We will beat these bastards. I don't know exactly how yet since they are breeding like rats in the education system but all I know is I'm not going to lay down for these lunatics. My hope is in Generation Z. Early studies of them showed they were trending towards old school America. They abhor debt for example. I've seen some recent polling that made them look leftist. I think that is propaganda trying to reshape them. Something tells me Gen X and Gen Z teamed up with sane boomers will get this done before it is too late.
