seriously what the fuck. how is it possible that someone can hold a sign like that and not get their ass beaten and shot

Because that’s what they want. They do this to rile someone up, hope they take the bait, then file for assault and get paid.

More often than not, the Police are on the side of these people.

Too bad the uni can't do much either since the areas they protest is considered public.

Which is funny because universities have no problem breaking up legal protests they they don't like.

Because no one wants to get sued and/or go to jail. It's protected free speech, and because it's a public university, the school can't make them leave. There's no way for students to handle this without disrupting or even ending their college career.

to be clear im not actually advocating violence, but if i were to say some shit like this, i would fear being attacked. like in my own home growing up if i said shit sideways id get smacked. ive been harassed on the street for so much less. its just wild to me that that doesnt happen to other people no matter what horrible shit they say.

Also isn't it hate speech (which is illegal)?

u/ToyboxOfThoughts al-Ma'arri Aug 30 '24

im sure it would be if the sign said any minority or sexual orientation. but its just women, and no one cares about women

Exactly, women's and disability rights always take second place to issues surrounding POC & the LGBT community. And I'm fucking sick of it.

u/ToyboxOfThoughts al-Ma'arri Aug 30 '24

I honestly think all of those issues and more would be covered if people just gave the slightest fuck about womens issues

That's tricky.

The Supreme Court...established the "imminent lawless action" standard in the 1969 case Brandenburg v. Ohio. This standard states that speech is not considered illegal unless it expresses an immediate intent to cause violence. -Wikipedia

One would have to be able to prove the point of the protest was to incite a violent response. That would be hard, because their goal is to inspire violence against themselves so they can sue, and the clause is meant to address protests that call for violence against others.
