Social media reports that at 1am local is when police will start breaking down the camps. They've warned the protestors to disperse or risk injury for last 30 minutes now.

The crowd forced LAPD to retreat after entering the encampment

Fox just read an email they received from law enforcement. Supposedly, law enforcement is about to enter the encampments.

I hope it's ugly, the clashes are intense and Palestinian supporters lay beaten to within an inch of their life.

UCLA potentially about to escalate. Getting multiple texts from local law enforcement contacts all essentially saying some version of “we’re going in”.

I'm not convinced California law enforcement won't be told to stop by the idiots in power.

LAPD of the 80's and 90's would have mauled these clowns. Damn, I miss those days.

Trying to find a postable link. There is heli footage.

Police have the encampments surrounded and are tearing down barriers on one side while the protesters piled up on the other side to try to prevent the initial breach.

They have apparently been instructed not to use tear gas or other disbursement methods. I'm not sure, but I think they've been largely outlawed in LA since 2020. These policies are going to lead to a lot more hands on violence.

They reached the tent city and are systematically dismantling all of the plywood barriers. Police are being surprisingly calm and going slow.

That's what the libs in CA want, then they have Gascon to prosecute the cops involved in the brawls needed to disperse and control the mobs.

Good lord... It used to be Berkeley while ucla was always laid back.

Cops starting to haul off the tent people. Pretty much looking exactly like one would expect.

It looks like this is maybe a hundred people out of b thousands of students and a lot of these people are probably not even students. The big problem everyone needs to have is the administration not shutting this down sooner.

Police now being sprayed with fire extinguishers. They are being remarkably calm. My guess is protesters will try to claim it was tear gas.

Funny, in other protests the nazis were crying about the police using tear gas / aka chemical weapons. Guess they shoe is now on the other foot.

The duties of a college president are to ensure no one's feelings are hurt, everyone feels good about him/herself, host great kiss ass cocktail parties, raise money , try to make an impression that athletic department is part of the school, produce enough grads that value work and knowledge to offset the grads that can't pour piss out of a boot,and ocassionally offer rewards.
And we look to someone like this to offer firm discipline to knuckleheads who need some discipline?

Apply pepper spray and "wood shampoo" batons, liberally. Repeat as necessary.

"Green" is the new RED.
