‘Pro-Palestinian’ protesters think they are above the law

Published April 16, 2024 1:52pm ET



The past week has illustrated that “pro-Palestinian” protesters aren’t just delusional enough to think they are protesting against a “genocide.” They are also delusional enough to think that they are above the law in every way.

Demonstrators in Chicago, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Oakland, California, illegally blocked traffic on Monday, protesting against Israel after Iran launched an attack on the country. The Golden Gate Bridge was backed up for hours, and around 40 people were actually arrested in Chicago. This is not the first time that these activists have blocked traffic to oppose the existence of the world’s only Jewish state and accuse it of genocide for daring to defend itself against antisemitic terrorists. Los Angeles previously arrested 75 people after protesters illegally blocked the 110 Freeway in December.
