its good they disrupted traffic and made so many other people suffer because now those affected will despise them more instead of feel pity for their plight.

These idiotic students should be expelled from the University and their places given to other deserving people.

Why do not you say the same for the politicians ? They should be expelled from the country first.

Uprisings unavoidable when govenment is not only corrupt but also stooging for global capital at the expense of basic necessities of the citizens.
