“Divest or f— off”

These coward criminals are targeting Jewish people specifically. And they probably believe they are against hate.

‘Antisemitism’: U. Michigan regent’s office vandalized with pro-Palestinian graffiti

The law office of a Jewish member of the University of Michigan Board of Regents was vandalized with pro-Palestinian graffiti on Monday, according to local news reports.

The words “Free Palestine” and “Divest or f— off” were painted in large letters across the Goodman Acker Law Firm in Southfield where Regent Jordan Acker is a partner, according to Detroit News.

“F— you Acker” and “UM kills” also were written across the walls and sidewalk, while red paint was splattered over the door and office sign, according to a video on X by WJBK Fox 2 legal analyst Charlie Langton.

Acker described the vandalism as an act of “antisemitism” after learning none of the other regents were targeted this week.

“If you show up at my house in the middle of the night, while also targeting my other colleagues, it is rude and disgusting, but it is not necessarily antisemitism,” he wrote on X. “If you show up at my business, and not any other regents, you are engaged in antisemitism.”

Southfield Police Chief Elvin Barren said local police and the FBI are investigating the incident as a possible hate crime, according to the Associated Press.

Other regents also have been targeted by pro-Palestinian protesters in recent weeks.

The AP reports more:

On May 21, police broke up a monthlong pro-Palestinian encampment on the University of Michigan’s Ann Arbor campus. About 50 people were cleared from the school’s Diag, known for decades as a site for campus protests. At least four were arrested.

A group of 30 protesters showed up May 15 at the home of Board of Regents Chair Sarah Hubbard and placed stuffed, red-stained sheets on her lawn to resemble body bags. They banged a drum and chanted slogans over a bullhorn.

Ha ha!
“But we’re Regents!”

These are the wages of letting the left exclusively have influence over education. If we don’t start using every bit of lawful and constitutional power and influence we have to counteract this and change the education system radically at all levels, open up the public square to freedom of speech by cracking down on the private corporations unlimited power over the public square we are sacrificing the nation.

“It is only the culture, the corporations, the media, the education system, academia, the military, millennials, gen z, gen alpha, and the bar but other than that….” what else is there?

As long as it is constitutional government governed by the U.S. Constitution I really don’t care about the size of government I care about what kind of country we have and these kinds of stories are suitable enough for third world bleep holes, but they are the inevitable result of wokeness we just can’t fight without use of government both to secure our ability to operate in the public square and to end the leftist indoctrination machine in public schools and colleges.

    Can we trust our bureaucratic government to do this?

      Which one? There are literally dozens of governments of the United States, and even where the bureaucrats are initially going to rebel well that is why the executive could fire insubordinates.

WRONG-O

YOU might be targeted for your religion while the others would have been targeted for other reasons
