Law enforcement veteran Michael Letts explains why universities could be setting a dangerous precedent when it comes to said protests.
Though many are enjoying the holiday season, it seems that there are some that want nothing more than to tarnish it with their feelings against Israel.
One incident in New York City saw hundreds of protestors clashing with police officers and staging a bloody Nativity scene, noting that “Christmas is canceled.” And overseas in Australia, protestors interrupted a live charity show that was supposed to benefit blind children, screaming about Gaza before being taken away.
But the worst thing happening right now is on the grounds of universities across the United States, with thousands of students and others taking part in pro-Palestinian protests. A few universities have tried to crack down on these protests, but a number of their staff members, along with others, have objected, noting that students’ freedom of speech was being violated.
How far is too far? And for that matter, what will happen if these protests continue? Joining us now to discuss this further is Michael Letts, a law enforcement veteran with over 30 years of experience under his belt. Letts is President, Founder and CEO of InVest USA, an organization that provides bulletproof vests to police officers through various charitable groups and sponsorships. We welcome him to the show.
Q&A:
- What do you think about the state of pro-Palestinian protests today? Are they getting out of hand? Could people – such as police officers – get hurt as a result?
- What do you think is driving these protestors into trying to convince people that they’re right?
- Let’s talk about protests at universities. Should schools be doing more in terms of trying to stop them? What about the staff and students speaking up against these efforts?
- Could it be possible that these universities are trying to fuel more of these protests? Are they really starting to believe in movements against Israel?
- Where do you see the fight between Hamas and Israel going in the new year?
- You’re the creator of InVest USA, an organization that provides bulletproof vests to police officers through various charitable groups and sponsorships. Tell us more about that, and why support for fellow officers is so important right now.
- Where can we learn more about InVest USA, and how those interested can help their fellow officers.
- You can visit our official InVest USA website, and learn more on the official Invest USA Twitter account. You can also learn about my new initiative at RestoringJustice.US, where we discuss lawful issues surrounding citizens of the United States.
