#BlackLivesMatter Thug Threatens Student at St. John’s University Over Trump Sticker

by · February 10, 2016

I rarely get angry at the stuff I see around here. I talked about this before, but when you see so much craziness it all starts to blend in and you get sorta numb too it. What I saw this afternoon did actually piss me off, though. A thuggish Black Lives Matter (BLM) activist at St. John’s University in New York City put up a tweet saying he would break a girl’s computer if he got 7,000 retweets. The reason for this? The young woman had a Donald Trump “Make America Great Again” sticker on her laptop. Threatening people over their political expression is something that shouldn’t be tolerated, but this punk even took it a step further according to The New York Daily News.

Here’s some details…

 

Clifford Durand, 18, posted a photo of an unsuspecting fellow student with a “Trump Make America Great Again” sticker on her laptop and asked his followers to share the image.

The picture was retweeted more than 16,000 times within four hours of being posted online. “7000 retweets and i’ll smash this b***h’s computer,” Durand wrote in the post, which his friends claimed was a joke.

When 20-year-old Trump supporter Brianna Algazali was told that her picture was going viral she complained to the school’s public safety office and confronted Durand. Several witnesses at the Fresh Meadows campus watched as the heated Trump backer threw her latte on Durand.

“She raised her voice and she threw her drink on him,” a friend of Durand told the Daily News. “He looked like he was in shock. I went towards him to hold him back.”

Some students present claimed that Durand struck Algazali after he was hit with the hot beverage. He admitted as much in one of dozens of tweets he sent before his account was suspended by the social media giant…

“SHE THREW HER STARBUCKS AT ME AFTER CUSSING ME OUT AND SHE GOT SHOVED IN THE NECK,” Durand tweeted after the Trump-induced dust-up.

“She asked him to take down the post and he said ‘make me,’ ”  another student said.

Algazali declined to elaborate on what took place at the school. “St. John is handling it right now I don’t want to say anything,” Algazali said. “They’re handling it the best they can, but I fear for my safety.”

The most unbelievable part of all this is that the school is rumored to have let Mr. Durand off with just a warning. Now, according to biased witnesses, she threw a drink, but forgive me if I’m not gonna just believe the people who started this aggression in the first place. Not only that, the Daily News only changed their report and put those statements in later on, after they were bombarded with tweets from the BLM contingent at St. John’s. Those same solks are now trying to turn this into a race issue. I know all of you are as shocked by that as I am. That is to say, you’re not shocked at all.

They’ve even rolled the whole thing up into their petition campaign, which is even more ridiculous…

The chick below tries to claim the student who threatened to smash the laptop is smart, but I’ll leave that up to you all to judge. He doesn’t sound very smart to me.

This whole thing is just unreal. If she actually did throw the drink, of course I would have to say that isn’t the correct response. Then again, this dude just threatened her and put it on Twitter blast. 16,000 retweets? I can certainly understand her reaction. I’m sure all of you can as well if that’s indeed what happened. At this point, it’s a big if. I’m going to go ahead and throw it to you guys in the comment section, since I have to get ready to appear on a stream. Let me know what you think about this entire situation.

    They say they don’t want speakers that make them feel ‘unsafe’ because of their different political views. What about these students? They make me feel unsafe because they’re willing to get violent over a freaking sticker.

  • GuitarAnthony

    Well twitter suspended the guy’s account so I’ll give them that. One finger in the dam wall doesn’t stop the flooding tho.

    • KLLRFRST

      I’m surprised that Twitter actually did something. I guess since she’s a Hispanic or Middle Eastern woman, she’s higher on the Progressive Stack and therefore must be protected at all costs.

      • AnonMuser

        Al-ghazali. Where d’you see names like that? Hispanic lol.

        PS: #ArabicForTrump?

        • Dranka Dranka

          She’s most likely a Middle Eastern “Arab” Jew, based on the last name, which is usually Israeli.

          • AnonMuser

            > Israeli
            If by Israeli you mean Hebrew, absolutely not. There are many Arabic citizens in Israel though, and many Arab Christian diaspora too that have Arabic names.

        • KLLRFRST

          I wasn’t aware of her name until now. Since she looks brown-skinned, I assumed either Hispanic or Middle Eastern.

  • Toastrider

    She threw a drink on you, buddy? File charges. it’s still simple assault.

    The fact you won’t strikes me as fascinating.

    • http://TheRalphRetort.com/ TheRalphRetort.com

      Same.

  • Kellen Joel

    “The white girl always gets her way” are they referring to To Kill a Mockingbird?

    • Baby Shoes

      Responding to the thug’s original quote;

      “She ain’t white and neither was Zimmerman, so quit trying to lump everything on whites mr. black social justice warrior”!

      • Kellen Joel

        Oh. nvm

  • KLLRFRST

    I love how a lot of these dumbasses act all brave behind a monitor and threaten to beat up a young woman because they’re so afraid of an insignificant ass sticker. Oh, poor baby! Show me on the doll where the sticker touched you.

    Funny how this “strong, brave man” didn’t just do what he threatened to do while he was in the same room – just went running to the internet like a pussy. That’s because he knows she’d gauge his eye out with a high heel shoe. I went to school with lots of Hispanic chicks, and i’ve seen them take down dudes much bigger than them without hesitation – those crazy bitches will fuck your shit up.

    • Melissa Michelle Wray

      Honestly. There was a time when I got scared whenever I saw someone sporting the Confederate flag on certain objects (I even saw a phone cover like it). Now, I just shrug and move on with my life.

      • Vanni127

        Congrats Melissa, you are 100% wiser than 90% of the internet.

      • MONAD

        Welcome to the real world, honey. Glad to have ya.

  • Melissa Michelle Wray

    Seriously?
    Do people not know how to agree to disagree?

    • AceofSpades

      These are SJWs. There is no “disagree”. There’s “racist homophobic xenophobic transphobic sexist misogynist bigot” and “absolute angel incapable of wrongdoing victim” .

    • Sockpuppet Nora

      Seems like they don’t. It’s sad, really.

    • scemar

      That’s a skill that seems to be going extinct.
      I personally blame the media for no longer even trying to be objective and instead deliberately trying to incite extremisms.

      • Flowey

        yeah it’s a shame really. I remember when TV used to be good. Glad I no longer watch TV any more.

  • Silence Dogood

    “How can white people teach me about my own experience.” LMAO Now THAT is some dumb shit. You don’t go to college to learn about YOUR experience you ignorant mud rat. You go to learn about the HISTORY of OTHER people’s experience. These people don’t belong shoveling shit let alone having the privilege to be educated in a Western University.

    • Maintenance Renegade

      This is exactly the sort of reason twitter’s active userbase is in a death spiral. If you’re not anonymous the lynch mobs will fuck your life and turn it into a global spectacle, if you’re anonymous then you’re a dirty anime avatar rando and you just get mass flagged until you’re suspended should you have the audacity to criticize anyone’s blatant lies or bullshit.

      • Silence Dogood

        Precisely! The only way an internet platform that encourages people to speak their opinion openly and freely can work is if it GUARANTEES anonymity, otherwise you see it abused again and again to ruin people’s lives and promote censorship of “wrongthink.” This is why people are fleeing from Twitter in droves; it is no longer a “safe space” to express oneself without fear of being censored by authoritarians or punished by the mob. For a company that claims to let people “speak truth to power” they seem to be forgetting the simply fact that anonymity is the ONLY tool against tyranny. Their promotion of tyranny in the form of their political and social ideology is what will kill them.

    • Baby Shoes

      No one cares about you or your experience, sit down and shut up and take advantage of all the unearned privileges you are given. One day Americans (that’s white people) will wake up out of their tribally imposed haze and deal with you permanently.

      • Silence Dogood

        It would be kind of funny to see what arbitrary thing humans would fight over if race wasn’t a factor. Gender, of course, will always have its hustlers thanks to the fact of sexual dimorphism. I suppose it really would be just class inequality after that… which ironically is the greatest inequality historically and the primary beneficiary of people fighting over trivialities such as race and gender. Sooner or later we’re going to get to a state of total automation, and then what exactly will we do? Capitalism can’t work without a working class to buy the things that are being produced and I somehow doubt humans will be willing to share everything… Maybe that’s what Marx was prattling on about when he referred to Communism as “inevitable,” not that it would work in the long run, but that Capitalism would fail under the weight of its own ingenuity. Oh well, I’ll be dead long before that’s any real concern.

        • Maintenance Renegade

          I don’t know what will shake out afterwards but my suspicion is that the immediate result of full automation may be a sort of wizard’s war. Wherein a very small number of highly skilled science and tech literate individuals will cloister themselves away within strongholds drawing many weaker techies to them and then hurling increasingly insane and overwrought technological abominations at each other’s strongholds in an incoherent as fuck conflict of childish insults and memes.

          • Silence Dogood

            That could be fun. Like the Brothers War in MTG come to life.

          • Maintenance Renegade

            Yeah it’s all fun and games until a three ton robotic Pepe throws a Buick through your bedroom wall. Feels bad man.

    • Xephon

      The irony is that people who say things like that are usually incapable of learning from ANYONE, regardless of their complexion.

  • AceofSpades

    I’m no expert, but I’m pretty sure the girl is not white.
    Not that it matters, to me. But muh narrative.

    • Dranka Dranka

      She’s Arab or Jewish for sure. Idk a lot of black people will refer to non-whites as white as long as they aren’t black or Asian or dark brown, it’s understandable to me. Many black people will call the Kardashians white, they don’t look white to me but it’s all on your perspective. I’ve seen some full blooded Greeks, Turks, Sicilians, Syrians whatever who look brown and then other people maybe even from the same family who are white looking. Cops look at things the same way, almost everyone who isn’t black gets marked as white when they get arrested, maybe to pad the records to make it look like arrests are more racially distributed. We just gotta get to the point as a society where race ain’t nothing but a number.

      • AceofSpades

        It’s fucking Minority Wars: The Farce Awakens. If you’re not dark enough you’re their enemy. It’s all about muh narrative.

    • Xephon

      Doesn’t matter. To an SJW, if you don’t adhere to the party line, you’re white. Like George Zimmerman, the notorious “white Hispanic”.
      Harry Reid once claimed CLARENCE THOMAS was white. Of course, in his case, it might just have been galloping senility.

      • AceofSpades

        Hence “but muh narrative”

  • http://www.isothedragonking.deviantart.com Iso

    I could say that she had a right to throw her drink at him if he threatened her with physical assault / damaging ones own property. Why do BLM protesters have to resort to violence and thuggery?

    • Sockpuppet Nora

      He punched her in the chest. Jesus Christ.

      • AnonMuser

        No. Assault leads to self defence. You should think about possible consequences BEFORE assaulting someone.

        Some courts would count the heated exchange as provocation enough under the “fighting words” doctrine, but many others won’t.

        • Typical

          Yeah, exactly, but then again inciting a riot is also a charge that one could argue by posting her picture and riling up a mob. She could have brought defamation action against him. would be interesting to see how it all played out if people decided to get courts involved.

          Also terroristic threats.

      • http://www.isothedragonking.deviantart.com Iso

        I misread it as she threw the drink at him after finding the tweet about him smashing her laptop up. My apologies, it’s the night shifts I work.

      • Dranka Dranka

        In the neck. Which is worse. But he only “shoved” her neck, which is the first time I’ve ever seen a blow to the part of the body described as a “shove”

        • Baby Shoes

          A closed fist shove

  • Veritasrex

    You’re correct, throwing a drink was the wrong thing to do. Four knuckles to the windpipe would have been much more appropriate.

    • Xephon

      She should have given the asshole his wish and bash him over the head with her laptop until both were broken beyond repair.

      • Veritasrex

        I’m with ya on that.

  • scemar

    A hot drink could cause permanent damage to someone.
    Not cool.

    • RevDr. Robert Foster, AbC, EfG

      That was pungent…

  • BigChief

    She feared for her safety after her photo was posted on the net… then SHE threw hot coffee all over the dude?! Oh yeah she was totally the one in danger. /s A “shove in the neck” is the least this bitch deserves. That’s assuming his side of the story checks out, we’ll see.

    As for the tweet and photo, meh. We’re all familiar with the hypocrisy and stupidity of BLM by now, it’s no surprise. Well done to the chick for proudly displaying her Trump sticker in such a politically hostile college campus.

    • Typical

      He initiated the confrontation and then got physically threatening when she told him to remove her picture by saying “make me” he was implying that his physical size and strength would make her unable to do anything because he’d beat her up. Using your physical presence to bully someone is just like rape.

      See, when you frame the narrative, you can tell any story you want. That’s why words are important.

  • http://cthulhu.biz cthulhu.biz

    “AND SHE GOT SHOVED IN THE NECK”

    In other words, he basically just admitted to assaulting her … after previously having documented his intent to via Twitter.

  • MrSonicAdvance

    BLM proving their crybully status.Incidentally, why hasn’t Clifford got a proper ghetto name? I suggest Cliffy-D. ?

  • Erthwjim

    Algazali, sounds not so white American to me, yet some called her a white girl. But that’s the problem with blm, they group people together by skin color.

    • Fatherless

      Its odd how quickly someone becomes white when they are bad.

    • Baby Shoes

      Anyone they hate is called White.

  • Fatherless

    He should be expelled for making the threat.

    There’s a lot of details to sort out with what comes after, so I’m not not sure if she should be too.

  • lolwut?

    Dindu nuffin

    Oh and dear BLM morons, she isn’t white

    • Mr Snow

      Right, that girl looks non white to me and the last name of Algazali is not any kind of european sounding name to me.

      But to BLM kids it’s ok, as long as the person you’re assaulting is “white” which is “not black.”

      Same shit they did with George Zimmerman, calling him white immediately…

  • wunsmartcookie

    A male student threatening then assaulting a female for whatever reason is unacceptable period.

  • Baby Shoes

    They’re Marxist agitators who want a revolution, but when a real war starts then we’ll see what’s what and whose who?

  • Xephon

    Looks to me like the woman acted in self-defense. The punk made terroristic threats and committed conspiracy to commit mayhem. Even if he never laid a hand on her, he is the instigator of the incident and may be guilty of several crimes.

  • joey reese

    Take note women: When u throw ur drink on/at a male, there is a good chance you might be get pushed/hit. That’s how men retaliate. We don’t throw drinks on ppl. We push/punch. It’s our nature. It’s the male response.
