RE: https://flipboard.com/@mercnews/san-jose-california-news-pn3ovuerz/-/a-gC6-1cZJTaGYpwFTPYbcCw%3Aa%3A2034191127-%2F0 These are students who were protesting their school&#39;s complicity in the ongoing genocide of Palestinians. In a ridiculous overreach, our DA charged them with a felony. They&#39;ve already been through one trial that ended in a hung jury.
