70. Protesters didn't shoot them.

Mon Dec 4, 2023, 09:39 AM

Dec 2023

A man - who sounds like he is probably a MAGA - has been arrested for that shooting. He's in jail. He's not Jewish, by the way, in case you thought he was. I doubt he knows much about Israel or Palestine.

This OP is about an organized harassment of a Jewish business that was targeted by a mob.
