“A group of Republican lawmakers introduced a bill on Wednesday which would send “any person convicted of unlawful activity” at a college or university, to do community service in Gaza for six months.”

“Strangely, the bill appears to refer to any “unlawful activity on the campus of an institution of higher education beginning on and after October 7, 2023” but does not specifically mention the ongoing student protests, rendering it stupidly broad.”

"Ogles spoke with Fox News about the bill, saying that, “If you support a terrorist organization, and you participate in unlawful activity on campuses, you should get a taste of your own medicine. I am going to bet that these pro-Hamas supporters wouldn’t last a day, but let’s give them the opportunity.”

    Oh, fuck you, you posturing GOP crybabies. Also, do you clowns realize that by using a trip to Gaza as punishment, you’re acknowledging that the conditions are unfit for the citizens who live there, many of whom are innocent?

      This is the problem. They have decided that they are guilty of being Palestinian, a crime worthy of death.
