Doesn't really seem like the folks holding signs and protesting are being arrested. The people who have set up encampments and are trespassing are being arrested, but they're clearly and obviously breaking the law. Peaceful protest is protected, vandalism, and attacking students or blocking them from accessing the buildings they're paying tuition to use isn't peaceful protest. There's a hell of a lot of video showing that quite a number of these are not peaceful or protests. Signs calling for intifada are not peaceful.
Man it's a good thing the founding fathers didn't engage in any vandalism and only peacefully protested until the crown let them become independent.

If you're trying to equate or conflate the plight of the founding fathers with the plight of a peoples who hold near absolute domination over the entire region with 22 ethnostates, then you need to go back to history class.
This isn't a fight for freedom in any way, shape or form. It's a fight to eliminate the only state that isn't Muslim in the region.
