Mayor of #Newark , #NJ largest city, and @GovMurphy not on same page about handling of #ProPalestinian college protest.

Rutgers, unlike many universities around the country, treated their students with respect, dignity and found a peaceful way to de-escalate tensions on campus. They avoided police, they avoided violence and they upheld their duty as an institute of higher learning to protect free speech and keep their students safe. They should be praised, not admonished, for their allegency to civility and our constitution.
