Summary

Cornell University and the FBI are investigating a series of website posts that were threatening violence against the Jewish community of the New York school. One of the threats called for people to follow a Jewish person home and "slit their throats." The threats come days after a Cornell University associated professor of history, speaking at a rally, said he was "exhilarated" and "energized" by the Hamas terror attacks on Israel. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with William Jacobson, Clinical Law professor at Cornell University and founder of the 'Legal Insurrection' blog, about the possibility of violence against Jewish students on campus.
