They’re parading straight into custody.

Anti-Israel protesters tried to ruin the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade for the second year running Thursday, with cops quickly swarming in to gobble up roughly 25 arrests.

The firebrands entered the parade route at West 55th Street and Fifth Avenue, stopping the Ronald McDonald balloon in its tracks around 9:25 a.m., police said — and drawing loud jeers from parade-goers screaming at the killjoys to move.

Photos showed protesters sitting in the parade’s path, with some unfurling a large banner that read: “Don’t celebrate genocide!”

“Get the hell out of here,” a parade-goer yelled amid a chorus of boos from the crowd, which seemed more interested in the Bluey balloon’s arrival than the plight of Palestinians in Gaza.

Anti-Israel protesters


Interesting. Just a little while back they were called pro Palestine. What changed?

It’s New York. I wouldn’t expect the parade goers to be able to solve the problem themselves.

We can, if we choose, use the law to separate “protests” from a “civil disturbance”. With a “protest” you are allowed to be seen, and heard, but you are not allowed to disturb, impede, disrupt or prevent normal civic activity or the civil infrastructures. That can mean that for a “protest” you would be given a permit that would delineate the area and conditions under which the protest was allowed, and that permit would not allow the protest to disturb, impede, disrupt or prevent normal civic activity or the civil infrastructures. Arrests would be made if no permit was given or of the permit was violated. The permit would NOT have any political parameters, only parameters to prevent a “protest” from being civil disturbance.

I don’t appreciate the Muzzies bringing their hatred here to my country. Let’s start deporting their asses. They don’t belong in this country. We don’t do terrorism.

“I’d like to raise a toast this Thanksgiving. I know we all don’t agree on politics but that’s fine. But I would like to quote a great President, Barack Obama, raise your glasses one and all, who once said ‘Tough luck, you lost. Get over it.’”

BOOM!

Surely not all muzzies. Probably some self loathing pro Gaza Jews as well.

Should have dragged them to an alley and given them a tuneup on the way to the station.

Cops should have stepped back and let the crowd handle it. The people watching the parade braved a cold rain and many traveled a long distance to get there. Let nature take its course.
