My ten-year-old nephew and his best friend are visiting. Today they were out on the cul-de-sac zooming around on scooters. My neighbors CALLED THE COPS to say "children were unsupervised." COPS came to our door because 10 yo children were playing in front of my house.

UCSC. My daughter stood arm-in-arm with her friends all night, peacefully protesting.The police slowly surrounded them. In the morning, the cops arrived in full riot gear. Cops circulated with zip ties selecting whom to arrest. They picked those they disliked. 1/n

If this is true, the cops effectively selected him for expulsion. He will fail his classes. I am worried for our youth. I am worried because I have Kent State in my mind. When cops use their power to punish protest, Kent State is a real possibility. 5/end

Maybe someone yelled an insult, or was the wrong race, or looked like their ex-girlfriend? It felt personal, intentional. As they stood there all night glaring at these idealistic students peacefully protesting, the cops had made choices, and in the morning 2/n

My daughter is quiet, and small. She was not arrested. Her best friend, who is larger and male, was selected for arrest. He is in jail. There are two weeks left in the quarter, including finals week. He lives on campus. Word is he will not be allowed on campus for 2 weeks. 4/n

@AndreaR9Md These people don't see their children as independent human beings. They view them as possessions, like a car. I mean, even if there isn't a serious issue, maybe the burgeoning adult in the kid wants some privacy and autonomy.
