In the past, Columbia Law School produced leaders like Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Now it produces window-smashing activists.
When protestors at Columbia broke into a building and created illegal encampments, the student-led Columbia Law Review demanded that finals be canceled because of “distress.”
Law schools used to teach students how to think critically, advance logical arguments, and respect opponents. Now, students steeped in cancel culture cannot tolerate disagreement and reject the validity of the rule of law itself. Rioting Ivy Leaguers are the same people who will soon:
Be America’s judges, DAs, and prosecutors
File and fight constitutional lawsuits
Advise Fortune 500 companies
Hire other left-wing diversity candidates to staff law firms and government offices
Run for higher office with an agenda of only enforcing laws that suit left-wing whims
