When the camera man says "Alright, who wants to be a facilitator? Who can facilitate at this point?" ... well I nearly choked on my Perrier. Then when he said "I don't think they want water bottles, they probably drink corporate water" I actually did choke on my Perrier. I was dead for like 8 minutes. I saw Elvis. It was that funny. ...

Hot Air has the back story:
A student group holed up in the campus cafeteria last week for three days with a list of demands including, among various other items, scholarships for Palestinian students, greater budgetary transparency, and complete amnesty for themselves, of course.

... While they do so, this stupid fuck-shit continues listing his "demands," and insists up on explaining "We're trying to do this in a democratic process, I don't think you understand that."

It's just too good. I had to swipe it.

There are people who cry out to be clubbed. If you don't agree, maybe the video below will convince you.
First, Hot Air sets the scene:
