Reports on Twitter are claiming that "Zionist" counter-protestors threw a bag of mice at the Gaza protest encampment in UCLA.

Entries will be resolved YES or NO based on my judgement. If someone links to a credible statement from mainstream media or UCLA itself stating that they checked and confirmed or disconfirmed something, it will resolve immediately.

If there is no new info on an option by 2025, it will resolve to the trading price, unless it strikes me as obviously crazy (e.g. I'll cap mutually exclusive options if they would sum to more than 100%, I'll negate anything I think is deliberate market manipulation.)

Two updates:

  • The LAPD have arrested one of the counter-protestors (not for throwing mice, for the other stuff that happened later), and the AP article on the arrest mentions the mice-throwing as fact. I've temporarily paused trading so people can make their arguments as to whether this should count for resolution.

  • Since evidence has been slow in coming, and the odds of a thorough investigation only drop over time, I'm considering adding a deadline to this market. Something like "If there is no new info on an option by 2025, it will resolve to the trading price, unless it strikes me as obviously manipulated."

Okay, absent any arguments to the contrary, I'm going to treat this as confirming that mice were indeed thrown at them. I'm leaving the options related to the identity of the perpetrators open since there's no indication they were specifically IDed.
