According to Fox Channel 32, at least 15 pro-Arab demonstrators were sprayed with “military-grade” pepper spray.

Around 5 p.m., while the Simon Wiesenthal Center Israel rally was taking place at the 3400 block of Touhy Avenue, about 200 protesters showed up in support of Palestinians,

According to NBC 5 Chicago, police said several disturbances escalated outside the event, leading officers to call for assistance to help “control the crowd and maintain order.” One person was confronted outside the Lincolnwood Town Center, then brandished a weapon and fired into the air.

No one was injured, and the suspect was immediately taken into custody by law enforcement. The circumstances surrounding the incident remained unknown late Sunday.

Thanks for all those that have been voting Democrat, millions of islamists have been imported into this country, and millions of brainwashed antisemites were produced by the American educational system. This is not the same country anymore. Time to take the defense Hishtadlus seriously: say Thilim, have bitichon, AND prepare shuls and yeshivos self defense plans. Police are minutes away when seconds count, and paid security guards have a tendency of taking a lunch break when needed the most. Concealed carry is now legal in every state, so start training.

Is it ironic that all the violence are at the pro palistine rallies and there are no arrests ever made by the pro Israel rallies? Dont ppl see that these jihadi muslims are animals?

The preview for this story ends in “According to Fox Channel 32, at least 15 pro-Arab demons.” I agree with that accidental description.

Interesting that the statement by Loomer says that the man who pepper sprayed the pro-Hamas protesters did so in self-defense. If thats the case, then Vinnews shouldn’t write the headline “pro-Hamas pepper sprayed”. Rather “man pepper sprays pro-Hamas protesters in self-defense due to being attacked by their mob of villians.

This man clearly was saved by his having a firearm . Unfortunately the police have no idea whether he is a hood guy or bad guy. He was clearly defending himself. These Muslims in this country are out of control. Deport them all. I am worried

Wow, Jew gets attacked, defends himself against a mob of angry antisemites and the only arrest is of a Jew. I’ve heard something similar before…

Oh that’s right, in Australia earlier this month the Jews of Sydney were told to stay home and couldn’t go to see the Sydney Opera House lit up blue and white in honour of the victims. It was in order to allow the pro-Hamas supporters to protest outside the Opera House instead, for them to burn the Israeli flag and chant F*** the Jews and g*s the Jews and throw flares at the Opera House. The only arrest that day was a peaceful Jewish man walking near there with a rolled up Israeli flag. Shame, shame, shame.
