Jews being attacked on campuses

 PJ Media:

...

Jewish students are being attacked on college campuses across the nation. Borrowing a play from the Brownshirts of old, campus thugs are hunting out “Zionists” heading to class and assaulting them.

Where is the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division?

At UCLA, campus Brownshirts set up checkpoints. “Are you a Zionist?” they asked students.

The password was “no."

Perhaps the Civil Rights Division blocks trial attorneys' access to the Los Angeles Times, where the story appeared.

Has the FBI paid a visit to campus to identify the Brownshirts manning the Zionist checkpoint? Has the special agent in charge asked for the CCTV files? Anything?

The UCLA Jew checkpoints happened last spring. Seven months ago. Nothing from DOJ.

Perhaps the lawyers at the Civil Rights Division are unfamiliar with 18 U.S.C. 245. That law makes it a federal crime to interfere or intimidate those exercising federally protected activities, like walking down the street free from racially motivated threats.

I’m kidding, of course. We know the lawyers at the Civil Rights Division know 18 U.S.C. 245 and other civil rights laws because they use them so frequently against police officers and prison guards.

But checkpoints for Jews would seem to be an easy one. Where are the attorneys in the Criminal Section of the Civil Rights Division, such as Section Chief Jim Felte?

UCLA isn’t alone. Campus threats against Jewish students are the popular new pastime on campus. George Washington University, Haverford College, University of Michigan, Middlebury College, Northwestern, SUNY Purchase, Swarthmore, University of California Berkley and Davis, and NYU are some of the hottest destinations for campus bigots. More on these ten schools in a moment.
...

I don't recall any conduct like that when I was a student at the University of Texas.  I had Jewish friends on campus.  They had their own fraternity back then and may still do.  That was several decades ago.  The university should take steps to protect students from this kind of harassment.  I was taking a heavy load of classes to finish my undergraduate degree in three years before attending Marine Corps OCS and serving as an officer in combat operations in Vietnam so I was not active in the social scene.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
