A new House Republican bill would send any person charged and convicted for illegal activity on a college campus to Gaza for at least six months.
Rep. Andy Ogles, R-Tenn., introduced the bill on Wednesday alongside Reps. Randy Weber, R-Texas, and Jeff Duncan, R-S.C., in response to the ongoing anti-Israel demonstrations on college campuses across the country.
Several of those protests have turned violent, with clashes between police and activists, as well as hundreds of activists being arrested across multiple campuses.
While Ogles' bill text does not mention Israel or the anti-Israel groups, it specifically targets unlawful activity on college campuses after Oct. 7, 2023, when Hamas militants invaded Israel in a surprise attack that killed over 1,000 people.

Fun to think about but jail sounds more realistic.
Hold them to the same standards as the "J6ers"
To call these assholes 1st Amendment users, is like calling a mass shooter, a 2nd Amendment user.

What about the ones who aren’t calling for the genocide of Jews? But just are protesting Israel?
To call these assholes 1st Amendment users, is like calling a mass shooter, a 2nd Amendment user.
And to call for new legislation against speech after protests you don’t like is like calling for gun control after a mass shooter.

And we have laws against violence and trespassing don’t we?
No need to do these blanket speech legislation and bills.

That’s hilarious that they’re talking about deporting citizens for using speech against another country.

Not for using speech against another country ....
For breaking the law while hugging on Hamas.
