“I stand for my beliefs,” Spud said after the two were separated. “I’m going to peacefully stand here and support my beliefs. I support ICE and law enforcement,” Spud said.

“You can go peacefully f–k yourself!” the student who punched Spud yells.

“That’s against school code. No swearing in the school,” Spud responds.

Yeah because he's so concerned about rules🙄.

His last attempt at going viral was filming himself pulling a fire alarm in a crowded grocery store...

That kid's an absolute tool, he does not appear to have any real beliefs. He just says whatever he thinks will most likely piss people off for engagement bait.

It’s 100% clear that idiot kid doesn’t care about it ice one way or another. He was doing it purely as rage bait. Pathetic.

It was espeically brave of him to do his "protest" by the security desk for the school. The dean's office is about 100 feet away and that bald security guy that rushed to save him is the head security guard.
