Your fancy collegiate-level analysis of legal precedence won't do to well in the face of the coming Islamic Caliphate. Take sides, but choose well. Michael Oren is brilliant, kind and true. Those PA-sympathizers may not be so brilliant, kind or true. But you choose the liberal interpretation of the law with no concern for what's coming. Wow.

I hope there are some consequences for their boorish behavior.

They were warned repeatedly that if they wanted to enter into a debate with Michael Oren they would be called upon at the end during question time. This was clearly not their purpose. They were not interested in entering into any kind of dialogue. Not only that but it was premeditated. At one point you see a student who stands up and shouts out a sentence reading it off a card (why he could not remember a single line off by heart is beyond me). I have no problem with them protesting outside the entrance - which they did very loudly. While I very much enjoyed Erwin Chemerinsky's opinion piece, I disagree with his view that they should not be punished. Very early on in the speech they were very CLEARLY warned that if they were to continue they would face disciplinary action with the option of expulsion. By continuing to carry out their plan they effectively stated that they were aware of the consequences and would choose to act in an inappropriate (and illegal) manner to prove their point. Like a parent who warns a child for inappropriate behavior, you must follow through on those warning otherwise the child receives mixed messages about what is acceptable/tolerable.
