Students continue to protest at campuses across the country, despite the risk of arrest. Some schools now threaten demonstrators with disciplinary action, while others promise the opposite.

    Different people will have a differing view of what classes as a peaceful protest though…if a country wanted to arrest people for non peaceful protest, surely it would need to be written into law?

      Not sure what you are asking. The university told them to leave, and they didn’t. They are now trespassing.

      If they simply left the private campus property and continued their protest in a legal manner (i.e. not camping on private property) they wouldn’t have been arrested.
