Live on the ground hundreds of Chicago police who are in riot gear are currently clashing with Pro Palestine protesters along with other activists things are extremely tense right now
I hope they realize that fighting the police in Chicago really accomplishes nothing but harm for the Palestinian people. There is no chance it rallies more support than it costs among working voters.
Getting attacked for being peaceful is good. Attacking is bad.
