Florida Sen. Scott Demand Antisemitic Protesters Face Arrest, Punishment

Florida Senator Rick Scott sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland urging legal action be taken against pro-Hamas protestors occupying the nation's college campuses.

"I hope you share my disgust and alarm at the antisemitic, unlawful protests that have exploded on several college campuses across the country in recent days. These well-organized and well-funded mass gatherings of ignorant, hateful bigots have far exceeded the bounds of legitimate expressions of constitutionally protected speech. While unlawfully trespassing upon and occupying large areas of college campuses, the organizers engage in vile incitements to acts of violence against Jewish students and Jewish members of the community that demand your immediate action." Scott wrote in his letter to Garland.

Senator Scott called out AG Garland for "refusing to take action against organizations that are politically aligned with the Biden administration, while Garland has not hesitated to target parents, pro-life advocates, and devout Catholics practicing their faith—an obvious display of a two-tiered justice system."
