There is nothing good about the pro-Hamas protests going on at college campuses. They range from foolish and stupid to hateful and vile, and usually involve some combination thereof. But even as we have to endure overprivileged students and professional outside agitators continue to try to destroy the American education institution, we've also been able to enjoy many of the responses to them.
Some are just pure courage, like the Jewish UPenn student who bravely and calmly refused to let protesters who were threatening him with violence deter him from walking on his own campus. Some have been patriotic, like the UNC 'frat boys' who stood against a mob trying to remove an American flag and raise a Palestinian flag in its place. And still some others have been a combination of virtues, like the UCLA Jewish student who happily ate bananas in front of protesters who are somehow desperately afraid of that healthy fruit.
And then there are the ones that just make us laugh with schadenfreude and poetic justice.
This was the case at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, this week. Because they are 'mostly peaceful,' protesters at the school had disgracefully defaced a campus wall with their pro-Hamas graffiti. So, the school called in a team of contractors to paint over their anti-American and antisemitic vandalism. When the protesters tried to stand in front of the contractors to prevent them from doing the job they were hired to do, their response was perfection.
'No problem. You could use a paint job too, kids.'
Watch:
At Case Western Reserve University @cwru in Cleveland, a contractor hired to paint over a vandalized wall by pro-Gaza activists is met by protesters who want to stop him. He proceeds to paint over them too. The protesters say that's assault. pic.twitter.com/etArajcEZm

The protesters called this 'assault.' (Because of course they did.) The police officer at the end of the video called it 'Sucks to be you, I guess.'
We call it delicious. And hilarious.

Look: The protesters are now all 'white supremacists.'
This is hilarious.

Can somebody call the parents? https://t.co/r4nZriY1Jg
If these kids have parents worth a damn, they would say, 'Good. You deserved it. Now, go take a shower, you white devils.'
Pity the contractor didn't do sandblasting. https://t.co/VW8KS45Nxi

Ooooh, THAT would have been good. But we'll settle for them being whitewashed as completely as Aunt Polly's fence.
I can’t say I feel bad for them. I’d like to buy the contractor a beer though. https://t.co/kRFjoK2JAg
— ULTRA Gay Biker DAD (@AnotherHomoCon) May 7, 2024
That was a common sentiment. Maybe someone can start a GoFundMe for the contractors' beer fund. They might raise almost as much money as those UNC boys have.

Nor should he have. Protesters want to play stupid games, protesters deserve their stupid prizes.

We knew heroes didn't all wear capes. We weren't aware that some carried spray guns.

Maybe not quite Picasso, but it sure is better than anything Hunter Biden ever painted.
Vandalizing a wall = illegal

Painting over vandals = not illegal https://t.co/rKje0QGIrs
Yeah, no one is taking the 'assault' claim seriously. Let's be honest here. These wimpy protesters claim they're being 'assaulted' if someone eats a bagel in their general vicinity.
The painter is #idgaf, I got paid to paint the wall, I’m painting the wall.

A job's a job. No matter who gets in the way. Maybe the next time climate cultists decide to glue themselves to a highway, someone can hire a paving contractor ... complete with a steamroller.
And they all just happened to have the same silly identical face shields.
— Bunny (@BunnyConrad75) May 7, 2024
Say, that's a good question. How did the protesters all have face shields in their 'grassroots' encampment? Maybe we should ask George Soros and Bill Gates about that.
Great protest guys.. you're covered in paint and the crew was inconvenienced by 5 minutes. Is Palestine free from the river to the sea now?
— @CptTruth_ (@CptTruth_) May 7, 2024
They just need to perform some more interpretive dances on the lawn. That'll do the trick.

Right? Think of the commercials they could run.
I want to know what kind of paint that is! Incredible single-coat coverage.
— Michael Pelletier (@MVPel1970) May 7, 2024
Whoever makes this paint or primer should add that feature to the can. 'Covers stains, fading, water damage, and whiny dweebs in a single coat.'

We want to set the entire video to music. Fortunately, Twitter supplied the perfect song choice, with a slightly changed title for the protesters' benefit:

Paint It White https://t.co/dKYQzL6DZn
'I see some pro-test-ers and want to paint them white.' We can hear Mick Jagger singing it right now.
Yep. That'll do. That'll do just fine.
