The great thing about this story is that Trump supporters will be able to point out that the left on campuses around the country and in leftist NGO's are pushing hard to bring similar though crime penalties to the US.

And Trump detractors will be able to point out that this sort of nationalist criminal prosecution is exactly where Trump's brand of leadership leads.

So, win-win, right?

Can I similarly be punished if I celebrate a win by the non-gay-cake-baking, horrible religious zealots, over the SOOO MUCH more palatable gay-cake wanna-eaters?

I bet I'd be punished on many or most college campuses these days, for that!

The really fun part is that this can go nuclear.

In 2014, a group of 67 college students from Kashmir were charged with sedation while watching an India-Pakistan clash at a campus hostel in Uttar Pradesh, though the charges were eventually dropped.

I've been at some laid back cricket games before, but this is new on me...
