The young man sporting the white mask and a white hoodie in widely shared video clips is Edan On, a local 18-year-old high school senior, his mother confirmed to CNN, though she later said he denies being at UCLA.
His mother must be so proud 🙄
“Edan went to bully the Palestinian students in the tents at UCLA and played the song that they played to the Nukhba terrorists in prison!” his mother boasted in Hebrew on Facebook, referencing Hamas. She circled an image of him that had been broadcast on the local news.
Oh, I guess that she is.
Yea, it’s clear the shit apple didn’t fall far from the shit tree.
Sounds like the whole orchard needs to be chopped down.
Both the mother and son are vile bloodthirsty xenophobes, the son is a criminal and meets the definition of a terrorist (though that’s a nonsense word).
Your comment is far too close to calling for genocide though, which is not an acceptable response to injustice.
It is not at all close to calling for genocide.
What would the analogy be that reached genocide? Chopping down the forest?
Not assuming the trees are an ethnic group?
You know that apple seeds are related to the trees they fall from, right? And that that’s the whole point of the expression “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree?”

“and it’s a big shit orchard, Randy.”
Let’s just say the wrong tree was watered
I’m confused.
Why were non-students allowed to be on UCLA property and allowed to throw things and swing weapons? Does the University not have an obligation to protect its students?
Sounds like people with $$$ to attend that school, need to take their $$$ somewhere else.
Who would stop them… the police?
UCLA is a public university, and the grounds are open to the public. Obviously, throwing things and swinging weapons is illegal there, but I wanted to answer the first part of your question.
In North Korea, the security forces have no legal obligation to actually stop crime or protect citizens, even if the incident is happening right in front of them while on duty. They are more concerned with enforcing party principles, protecting oligarchs, and the status quo.
In the US, police also have no obligation to actually stop crime or protect citizens, even if the incident is happening right in front of them while on duty. There have been several court decisions that establish the lack of any police obligation to act.
It leaves me with the obvious question, given that, why do we continue to pay them? I actually think we need some form of law enforcement, but it becomes increasingly obvious that what we have is nothing like what we need.
Neither did Tom Bibiyan, a 42-year-old who was once a local Green Party official. Bibiyan was stabbed at a KKK rally where he was a counter-protester in 2016 and has since become an ardent Trump supporter.
…the fuck? Is Nazism injectable?
It’s a mental disease
Did Jerry Seinfeld’s wife find these violent counter protesters as well? Glad to see researchers are unmasking them, but will there be any criminal charges… Meanwhile israel is funding canary mission to doxx peaceful protesters in order to control all narrative and maintain influence.
I love that the kid came in a mask, obviously thinking that concealing his face was a good idea, then took it off while still in the area with all kinds of cameras going, then his mom bragged on Facebook he was doing the assaulting. Just a wonderful confluence of stupidity.
I feel like someone on Wall Street in 2007 was thinking about how stupid criminals were and wanted to make a point.
