ARE SEEING ON THE SCREEN, THAT IS AN INVASION. LET'S BRING IN ALLISON ESPISITO, RETIRED POLICE OFFICER. YOUR OPINION OF THIS GETTING THIS FAR TO HAPPEN. >> GOOD MORNING. THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THIS IS, ANARCHY, ABSOLUTE UNREST AND IT IS UNACCEPTABLE. YOU HAVE A GROUP OF OVERLY EMOTIONALLY AND UNDER INFORMED INDIVIDUALS. IT IS ABSOLUTELY LUDICROUS. YOU HAVE GROUP OF STUDENTS THAT HAVE TAKEN OVER A BUILDING AND REPORTS OVERNIGHT OF FACULTY MEMBERS THAT WERE INSIDE THE BUILDING AND BRIEFLY HELD HOSTAGE. THIS WILL ESCALATE AND GET WORSE UNTIL SOMEONE GETS HURT. IT IS TIME FOR STRONG, DECISIVE LEADERSHIP. YOU SEE SCHOOLS AROUND THE COUNTRY WHERE SOME LEADERS ARE STEPPING FORWARD AND STOPPING THE ANARCHY. THESE STUDENTS BELIEVE THEY ARE NOT ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR AKSZS AND THAT IS PINPOINTED WHERE CRIMINALS ARE NOT HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS. TAKE A HARD STAND AND END THIS NOW BEFORE IT GETS WORSE. >> Todd: AS A POLICE OFFICER, GIVE US A DESCRIPTION OF LAW AND ORDER, CONTROLLING MOBS. HOW WOULD YOU PUT A SWIFT END TO THIS BEFORE SCENES LIKE THIS COULD THINK OF HAPPENING? >> SO THIS IS BEYOND NEGOTIATION AT THIS POINT. AS NEW YORK CITY POLICE OFFICER, RETIRED AS INSPECTOR OF THE 70th POLICE PRECINCT, WE DEALT WITH A LOT OF PROTESTS. SOCIAL PROTEST, ABIDING BY THE LAW IS ONE THING. ONCE YOU ARE STOPPING EMERGENCY VEHICLES, TAKING OVER SCHOOLS, NOT ALLOWING STUDENTS BASED ON THEIR JEWISH FAITH TO CROSS INTO BUILDINGS, YOU HAVE GONE INTO THE CRIMINAL ELEMENT OF THIS AND IT HAS TO BE DEALT WITH. THEY HAVE TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS. THEY ARE DEMANDING AMNESTY, THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. LEADERS MUST BE TAKEN INTO CUSTODY AND HANDLED ACCORDINGLY. THEY ARE HOLDING PEOPLE HOSTAGE, REPORT OF JEWISH STUDENT OR INDIVIDUAL BEING TASED YESTERDAY ON ONE CAMPUS. IT IS TIME FOR DECISIVE, STRONG LEADERSHIP. STUDENTS MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. NYPD OR NATIONAL GUARD. NYPD ARE THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS, THEY WILL GO IN AND MAKE ARRESTS WITH PROFESSIONALISM. UN STEREOS NEED TO UNDERSTAND, IF YOU DO THE CRIME, YOU ARE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND LEADERSHIP IN THE GOVERNMENT AND COLLEGES NEED TO STEP FORWARD AND HOLD STUDENTS ACCOUNTABLE. >> Todd: YOU SAID NATIONAL GUARD, DO WE NEED TO SEE NATIONAL GUARD TODAY WHEN THE SUN COMES UP, IF YOU CAN MOBILIZE THEM THAT QUICKLY? >> WE DON'T NEED THE NATIONAL GUARD IN NEW YORK CITY. THE NYPD IS READY AND CAPABLE OF HANDLING PROTEST SUCH AS THIS. HANDLING MOB CRIMES SUCH AS THIS. THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY CAPABLE OF GOING IN THERE AND ENDING THIS TODAY. THEY DID IT WITH OCCUPY WALL STREET, WE DID IT WITH THE PROTEST, MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTEST AKA RIOTS OF 2020, THEY NEED TO BE ALLOWED TO DO THEIR JOB. >> Todd: I ASKED YOU WHAT YOU WOULD DO. YOU ARE RUNNING FOR CONGRESS, IF YOU GET TO CONGRESS, WHAT WILL YOU DO TO PUT A STOP TO THIS? >> WELL, LISTEN, I'M A LAW AND ORDER CANDIDATE AND GOVERNMENT'S NUMBER ONE JOB IS TO KEEP THEIR PEOPLE SAFE AND THEY ARE FAILING TO DO THAT. I'M RUNNING FOR UNITED STATES CONGRESS BECAUSE WE DO -- WE ARE SEEING DECLINE OF LAW AND ORDER IN THIS COUNTRY AND IT IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE 101. HOLD I BELIEVE CS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTION. IF YOU TAKE THE LEADERS OF THIS PROTEST INTO CUSTODY, NORMALCRASHES Y WILL RESUME. IT HAS TO COME OUT OF ALBANY, WASHINGTON AND HALLOWED HAULS OF ACADEMIA. >> Todd: YOU MENTION CONSEQUENCES, THERE NEED TO BE CONSEQUENCES FOR OUR ACTIONS IN LIFE, THIS SCENE, CHILD WHO IS ONE YEAR OLD AND YOU TRY TO TEACH THEM RIGHT FROM THINK WRO. THESE PROTESTERS, THIS IS WILDEST PART OF THE STORY. THEY ARE DEMANDING ISRAELI DIVESTMENT AND AMNESTY, WHETHER BREAKING GLASS, PREVENTING PEOPLE FROM TAKING FINALS, IT IS INTIMIDATING FELLOW STUDENTS, MANY OF WHOM ARE JEWISH. WHAT IS YOUR MESSAGE TO THESE CHILDREN WHO WANT NO CONSEQUENCES FOR THEIR ACTIONS? >> THE ADULTS IN THE ROOM NEED TO TAKE OVER THIS SITUATION. THESE ARE SAME STUDENTS THAT ARE NOT GOING TO BE ALLOWED TO GRADUATE, THAT WENT THROUGH THE PANDEMIC. ADULTS NEED TO TAKE OVER, YOU DON'T HAVE AMNESTY, YOU DON'T GET TO DEMAND AMNESTY IN NAME OF SOCIAL PROTEST, THAT IS NOT HOW THIS WORKS. THESE STUDENTS NEED TO UNDERSTAND THERE ARE CONSEQUENCES TO YOUR ACTIONS AND YOU DON'T GET TO -- BECAUSE YOU DON'T AGREE WITH SOMETHING, THIS IS NOT THE WAY LIFE AND SOCIETY WORKS. THIS SOCIETY NEEDS TO COME DOWN AND MAKE SURE THEY KNOW THERE ARE CONSEQUENCES FOR THEIR ACTION. I CALL ON THE ADULTS IN THE ROOM THAT KNOW BETTER, SHOULD KNOW BETTER TELLING STUDENTS, YOU WILL NOT GET AMNESTY, YOU WILL BE SUSPENDS AND STUDENTS HAVE RIGHT TO STUDY PEACEFULLY AND ENTER BUILDINGS ON CAMPUS BASED ON
