I eyewitnessed 21 peaceful protesters arrested at the University of Texas at Dallas on Wednesday as the encampment was razed by riot police. No one was committing civil disobedience, let alone rioting. They languished for 24 hours in the Collin County jail for exercising their 1st amendment rights. Other protesters pulled an all nighter in front of the jail and 300 were on hand when they were finally released.

Thanks for this first-hand report, Marjorie.
