I was referring to OP saying, “these youngsters seem to not understand the power of the government” when it’s not the government going after them. Not right now anyway.
That’s the key thing, though. It can escalate to that. And while Hochul is a Democrat, she’s from Buffalo and may not hold Columbia in as high esteem as your typical NYC pol.
She was caught recently saying that “if Canada attacked Buffalo, there wouldn’t be any Canada anymore”, which she had to walk back. (She may be overestimating how much we care about Buffalo). So I wouldn’t assume she will have endless patience with the protestors.
