We thought it might be a good idea to head south and see how the pro-Hamas protests are going at the University of Texas at Austin. It doesn't look like they're fooling around.

Oli London (@OliLondonTV) ~ “Get out of here.”
Students at UT Austin scream at police as Texas State Troopers in full riot gear move in to clear the protesters from the campus.
Just days ago, Texas police showed zero tolerance to defiant activists, making 57 arrests.

Well, the protesters were blocking a police car that had arrested students in it from leaving campus.

Well, the difference here is that these police officers are Texas state troopers sent by Governor Abbott, not Austin PD officers. The Hippies running the Austin City Council don't have the stomach for enforcing the law, but our governor has no such hesitations.
Here's some equally satisfying footage from Washington University in St. Louis:

Last word from Sen. John Fetterman:
Jacob N. Kornbluh (@jacobkornbluh) ~ Sen. Fetterman on campus protests:
“Of course, it's a great American value to protest. But I don't believe living in a pup tent for Hamas is really helpful ...
“I can't end that war, Joe Biden can’t end that war, Netanyahu can’t end that war. But Hamas could end it right now.”
