How many times have we seen this in recent years? Why are student mobs allowed to do this?
FOX News reports:
U of New Mexico investigating ‘who violated the law’ after violent protestors interrupted Tomi Lahren speech
The University of New Mexico told Fox News Digital there is an investigation ongoing to see “who violated the law” after Fox News contributor Tomi Lahren was escorted to safety Thursday night when angry protestors shut down her speech on the Albuquerque campus.
“I would not have gotten out of there last night if it wasn’t for New Mexico State Police and Albuquerque P.D. I would not have gotten out of there, so I owe them a lot,” Lahren told Fox News Digital from an Albuquerque hotel room.
Lahren, also an Outkick host, is used to being confronted by angry liberal protestors who attempt to silence her conservative views, calling it “pretty routine stuff” she encounters frequently when speaking to college students. It was no different on Thursday when she was set to speak New Mexico’s Turning Point USA chapter inside a large event space at the student union. She saw a few signs claiming she was a “White supremacist,” but thought the presence of campus police would deter any serious resistance.
“We were told that they were going to be out in the courtyard, not allowed into the student union, these counterprotesters or whatever they were. We were told that they’re going to be kept outside,” she said.
“I start my speech and you can hear the chants and you can hear the screaming and the expletives. And again, nobody really thought anything of it. They’re just, you know, fired up. And I didn’t really think too much of it until they started pushing past the officers and banging on the doors so much that these double doors are visibly moving and shaking and they are smashing into the windows. And that’s when it became incredibly chaotic,” Lahren continued.

How many were expelled?
/thought so…
Real legal question.
Is there no Civil recourse against individuals identified in these videos?
Even a small claims court action for $3000?
Mom and dad having to hire a lawyer is not going to sit well at the Thanksgiving table.
Even a small financial loss in Civil Court is a permanent legal record.
Probably won’t make any difference today, but I doubt the same people will act the same at the next event.
Sounds insurrection-y,
Somewhere in the background, a Marxist professor was grinning big. Will this investigation get that far?
Police are all too eager to aid progressive protesters, by forcing speakers to leave rather than evicting the protesters.
Yet this is what they accuse and prosecute protestors on J6 for.
These punks should be fined and expelled. If they aren’t, it is tacit approval by the UNM administration.
