Initially, the protesters had a fair amount of support (including mine) until they broken into a building, smashing windows, vandalizing offices, and barricading themselves inside with others that became, in effect, hostages. What would you have done under those circumstances? If allowed to continue as it unfolded, that kind of action could have easily been duplicated all over the city and ended up on more than just college campuses. While I'm not a fan of heavy-handed police action, in this case, "outside agitators" or not, the protesters went too far and Mayor Adams had to make a decision when university officials asked for help.
