"The real problem with the "out of control," boundaryless, individual demonstrators and with the surging, "flooding," demonstrations; the large scale looting of stores; the violent, hallucinating mentally ill homeless men on my city streets and on public transportation is this: No one—absolutely no one--stops them.". . .
Show some anger and shake that fist!
. . ."A sense of personal boundaries in public has frayed. Social etiquette in public is gone. Post-pandemic, many people show up in fairly dressed-down, even disheveled ways when summoned to court; appear at business meetings on zoom, and in person at airports, concerts, and restaurants. Worse: Although there are exceptions, people are so focused on their cellphones, that they do not see each other coming and thus, walk right into others, shove and push each other, take offense.
"Too many people are in a permanent rage--none more so than the pro-Hamas demonstrators who've been "on the job" since 10/7.
"Masked and keffiyeh—wearing pro-terrorist demonstrators have not only blocked traffic in my own fair city, they have also chained or glued themselves to bridges, defaced statues, private residences, restaurants. By now, they are a completely normalized phenomenon.
"No one has stopped them.
"They are everywhere almost all the time: a yelling, chanting, Jew-hating mob, disturbing the city peace, interrupting every holiday and public event, harassing innocent civilians, at work, at homes, and on the streets, but especially harassing Jews: Students of course, but also those who are dressed in visibly Jewish ways--plus Jewish museum directors, Jewish professors, both on campus and at their homes, and as they are dining in known Jewish restaurants.
"This actually just happened a few days ago in Philadelphia at a restaurant, Goldie's, owned by a Jewish businessman. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, described the demonstration as pure "antisemitism."
"The pro-Palestine protestors trespass all boundaries of civility, just as similar Jew-hating groups have been doing for many years in classrooms. They shout down any speaker perceived as a "Zionist," or "pro-America," and try to have him or her harassed right out of their university position.
"The other day, two surgically masked young women interrupted CNN anchor Dana Bash's book reading at the Politics and Prose bookstore in Washington, D.C. One after the other, each woman got very close to Bash, and began screaming at the top of her voice rather hysterically. They were not interested in dialogue. They were there to shame, shock, potentially shut down the event. Here's a little of what they said:" . . .
