Not To Be Thankful For: Macy’s Parade Protests
The pro-Palestine demonstrators went so low as to stage a protest and disrupt the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade (“Pro-Palestinian protesters glue their hands to 6th Avenue, disrupting Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade,” Metro. Nov. 23).
This parade commemorates a piece of our country’s history, which of course is why they did this. They also defaced the New York Public Library.
The contrast between good and evil is stark. Can anyone imagine a pro-Israel, pro-Jewish demonstration stooping to these lows?

Hopefully those “River to the Sea” buffoons who glued themselves to the street in protest on Thanksgiving will glue their hands to their beds on Election Day.
These protesters likely all voted for President Biden and former President Barack Obama, but most will now stay home on Election Day. Biden could lose the “Rashida
Tlaib vote,” which is millions strong.
That’s good news, as some polls show Biden is also losing the black vote.
Liberal voters were silent as Obama and Biden gave billions of dollars to Iran. Liberal appeasement is a losing ideology. No more negotiating with terrorists, something that leads to the taking of more hostages.

On Thanksgiving, the protesters were quickly cuffed and hauled away.
They should at least be spending the weekend in jail. People come from all over the world to New York City to see the parade. Millions more watch it on TV. It should be clear that New York won’t tolerate this. Carol Meltzer

The once-great city of New York continues its sad and shameful descent into lawlessness and disorder.
Thursday’s disruption and desecration of the time-honored and familyfriendly Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade should be a clarion call.
The miscreants who tarnished the parade — and selfishly ruined the experience for people of all ages and stripes — should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Turkey and protests do not mix. Ira Cohen Broward County, Fla.
