This is strawmanning our arguments and is logically fallacious. We never said we agreed with breaking windows, nor that we agreed with students not being able to graduate.
If you want to assign blame, assign it to the US government that has made the hitherto peaceful protests impossible. When peaceful protest becomes impossible, violent protests become inevitable.

@basilfawlty89 You sure did get mad when I said that breaking windows and occupying buildings was bad. Just kept repeating over and over that protesting doesn't stop being protected when it "inconveniences" people.
But I do take your point about the peaceful protesters being treated as criminals. And also, yeah, I strawmanned a bit.

@LordShadowfire I didn't get mad, I'm just reminding you of the point here. Occupying a building when the majority of Gazans don't even have buildings anymore is a bit tone deaf.
