Republican Introduces Absurd Bill to Send Arrested Student Protesters to Gaza

Rep. Andy Ogles desperately wants to punish protesting students.

“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.”

    Now hold on just a minute there. They can have their balls or ovaries kicked off. Inclusivity, y’know.

      For sure but in this instance the assholes in question are male. In the name of inclusivity, I’m happy to discuss alternatives for women as I’m not sure ovaries can be kicked off.

        Just wait til MTG and BoBo get to the party.

        I’m not sure ovaries can be kicked off.

        Anything’s possible, with enough enthusiasm!
