Jewish man succumbs to wounds day after altercation at pro-Palestinian protest in LA
Federation says pro-Palestinian demonstrator hit victim in head with megaphone; local rabbi says there are conflicting reports of what unfolded, cops don't have footage of attack
“An autopsy was performed on November 6th and the Ventura County Medical Examiner’s Office determined the cause of death to be blunt force head injury and the manner of death homicide.”
Tragic.
Rabbi Michael Barclay of Temple Ner Simcha in Westlake Village, near Thousand Oaks, urged people to avoid jumping to conclusions about what happened.
He said police are being cautious before making accusations. “We need to do the same; and not let this become a spark that starts an inferno,” he wrote.
Before people use this incident to instigate hate, I will point out even in the thumbnail photo, people are assisting the man from both protest groups.

Because most people from both groups just want peace. They just don't agree on the definition of peace. But both of them want the war to stop. If only they were in agreement on the details, they would get along.
So I would say that they were, in general, good people. And that's why they helped him.
israel is actively advocating for and committing genocide to expand their lebensraum. Even in the west bank where the is no Hamas.
You cannot in good conscience say anyone supporting israel wants peace. That's like saying people waving a Russian flag only want peace in Ukraine, but even worse since Russia only wants to annex Ukraine instead of replace it's population with their own israeli Ubermensch.
If it was by a megaphone, that implies it was by a organizer which doesn't look good. It's already hard enough to not look anti-semitic while supporting Palestine without these events happening all around the world. (Plus synagogues getting threatened and so forth.)
"Succumbs to wounds" do you mean was murdered? Cause that is what that is.
I think it is one of those things where they can't call it a crime yet.
Proof that it was the police
I feel like a bug is going around where everyone feels the need to rewrite headlines over the slightest thing.
Is it just an easy way to get upvotes?
Im calling out the euphemisation of the headline to make the murder sound less horrible.
I hope the president does something before the pogroms start.
Imagine if it was a baby in Gaza...
Don’t even have to imagine. Probably happened a few times in the time it took you type out your comment.
It's kind of gross to respond to the murder of a Jewish man with "yeah but what about Israel's genocide".
You do know that we can condemn violence against Jewish people in our own country AND condemn Israel's genocide, right?
That’s the best response to tragic events like this: compare suffering! /s
