To be clear, these are not “counter-protesters” exercising their First Amendment rights.  

This is a mob committing horrific acts of violence against student protesters.
Violence is not protected by the First Amendment. At least 100 people armed with fireworks, bear spray, and handmade weapons descended on the @UCLA students’ Gaza solidarity encampment late last night and violently assaulted many of the protesters.

#BREAKING: We, @NYCLU, & @MungerTolles are suing to stop the Trump administration's anticipated mass deportation of refugee families and children. Due to egregious bureaucratic errors, they never had their day in court—a violation of due process rights. aclusocal.org/en/press-relea… The govt's errors made it impossible for people to know about their immigration hearing dates. Notices were sent:

- to incorrect addresses
- after hearings had already passed
- issued for dates when courts were not in session
- FOR DATES THAT DO NOT EXIST such as Sept. 31
