Beat cops are on the ground in IU in a very sparse formation armed with chemical weapons and 40-mm launchers.

A SWAT team mills about with what appear to be AR-15s and wear basaltic armor.

Hundreds of students are facing off with cops chanting "Free Palestine" while hundreds more students look on.

#Indiana #FreePalestine

Police snipers made an appearance today atop the Indiana Memorial Union on Indiana University's campus.

Students on IU's campus have setup a Liberation Zone protest and demand their university divest from Israel inline with BDS. They also make specific mention of a local miltary partnership with Crane Naval Base which has a key roll in supplying large munitions to Israel.

For #ThickTrunkTuesday here is the tree growing from the courthouse tower in Greensburg, #Indiana

It has been there since the 1870s, apparently.
