Summary
The University of Texas at Austin used a mounted, mounted, show of force to crack down on a student-led protest on campus. The aggressive retribution of university administrations has made for a low moment in the history of American education. The raid at UT resulted in 57 arrests, including of a photojournalist for the local Fox affiliate who spent the night in jail.
The University of Texas has a video promoting free speech saying that anybody from the public can come to campus and engage in protest. All of the charges have already been dropped, a good indicator of just how criminal these actions were. The very next day, there were more protesters.
