“A group of Republican lawmakers introduced a bill on Wednesday which would send “any person convicted of unlawful activity” at a college or university, to do community service in Gaza for six months.”

“Strangely, the bill appears to refer to any “unlawful activity on the campus of an institution of higher education beginning on and after October 7, 2023” but does not specifically mention the ongoing student protests, rendering it stupidly broad.”

"Ogles spoke with Fox News about the bill, saying that, “If you support a terrorist organization, and you participate in unlawful activity on campuses, you should get a taste of your own medicine. I am going to bet that these pro-Hamas supporters wouldn’t last a day, but let’s give them the opportunity.”

    Just wait until they find out that date rape is “unlawful activity”, so their sons all start getting sent .

    Better start drafting that carve out for congressional family members.

      So every time they had “counter protests” aka attacking people for their beliefs, they were performing unlawful activities. Meaning they should all be shipped to Gaza according to this.
