Pro-Palestinian agitators escalated their confrontation tactics Friday when they blocked a roadway in Hollywood and attacked a vehicle as the driver was attempting to pass.
Video showed several masked individuals damage a car at the intersection of Fairfax Avenue and 3rd Street, allegedly slashing the tires, and one protester even laid on the hood:

“Bombs are dropping, why are you shopping?” they chanted in Manhattan:
"Bombs are dropping, why are you shopping?" – Thousand Pro-Palestinian protesters chant as they surround one of the entrances to Macy's on Black Friday, the busiest shopping day of the year. "Are caskets 50% off?" read one of the signs.

“While you’re shopping, bombs are dropping!” they chanted in a variation of the scripted version from New York.
They even directed some chants at Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D), who has waffled on which side she supports.
“Whitmer, Whitmer, what do you say? How many kids did you kill today?” they wondered, referring to Gaza, not Michigan’s abortion policies that she recently relaxed.
