LGBT for Palestine is like chickens for KFC.

@Jedi how so? I'm queer and I want them to be able to live a peaceful and normal life. Just because they're not ok with a lifestyle doesn't mean they deserve to die nor does it mean they deserve to be treated less than human. You're just projecting your own hatred of the queer community behind your comment. Be better it's pathetic.

They are terrorizing this city and Adams does nothing to stop it. This is not lawful protest. But hey, NYC, you wanted lawlessness you got it! Enjoy!

@allin16 actually they were arrested

The best way to protest is to go join the military for the country u are siding with and fight for that country…protesting here disrupting peoples lives who have nothing to do with the war is ridiculous

KommtTanzenJan 8 at 6:20 PM

@BrooklynUser448210003 They do. It is called Hamas. Used to be 40K. Down to about half of that now.

QueensUser511805008Jan 8 at 4:36 PM

I see zero protests on what Iran doing to its people. All the Christians being killed. Syria doing to its people. Turkey doing to the Kurds. The list is endless. No Jews no News. They need. JOBS.
