1. Sick. Anger isn’t even the word. Our America is hurting on college campuses and elsewhere. We need a miracle. Stop the police state!

2. This was disgusting on so many levels. I was reminded of the Stanford Experiment:

   What has me creeped out is the change in young people, they were identifying with the police, not the student.

3. I think one thing that’s changed is colleges have been fighting to remove the anti-authoritarian elements out of both staff and student body for the last couple of decades. Lots of conservative and authoritarian liberal think-tanks have long noted that campus activism has made it difficult to direct elite opinion and depletes the corporate/state pool from which to draw recruits.
   So, if student bodies seem apathetic, perhaps that’s why.
