I don't understand: What would you like Trump to do? Leave the 
protesters alone to spew their nonsense?

Also, there's a comment I've seen under various videos that implies that 
visa students who aren't causing trouble are not as innocuous as they 
might seem: Radical islamists are the snakes in the grass; moderate 
Muslims are the grass.

I know that the Koran calls for all Muslims to bring all non-Muslims to 
Allah. I *don't* know how seriously "moderate" Muslims still take that 
demand of their religion. Do they all secretly believe it and work for 
it or is some significant percentage of them happy to practice tolerance 
to other religions (and the irreligious)? It's very hard to know what is 
in someone's heart.
