Students peacefully protesting are brutally beat by NYPD in Baruch College

[charli3wils0n]

its a shame the only way to get our voices heard it through violence. Violence is the answer!

As a Baruch student, I understand the issues the students bring up, HOWEVER, please DO NOT protest at Baruchwith your problems.Go to your own campuses! It is not fair to the Baruch students who are not even protesting. You know why? Because us baruch kids do not have time for that shit. Go get yourselves jobs to try to pay off the $300 per year. thatswhat Baruch students are doing. I suggest you follow our example. Baruch College is definitely better than CUNY. At least we don't act like animals

@eldad90 ouch...that's pretty harsh...I'm a CUNY student and I'm not into having to pay more. I'm not a citizen and I'm not allowed to get a job to help pay for tuition so my family is paying for it. I don't like the idea of having my family pay more than they need to. Second...I did not go there and disturb the baruch studnets. so in short not all of us CUNY students are animals.

the poster next to the box office is a bit ironic...IRON CURTAIN.

The NYPD were using their clubs to shove us. We were sitting down, and we meant to offer testimonies on why we were against the tuition hikes, when the NYPD charged us.

@speedyhobbit13 Did the crowd get riled? Yes, we definitely did after some of us were hit by those billy clubs, others for being nearly trampled while sitting- I almost got knocked down by people being forced back- and others, yes, perhaps just to follow the crowd. However, we had no arms ourselves, nothing but our own bodies, and people were being hit by billy clubs.
