Pro-Hamas protesters commemorated the anniversary of the October 7 attacks on Israel by doing what they do best: Getting arrested for behaving like petulant thugs in Boston, Massachusetts.
The fracas began around 6:46 p.m. when police responded to an “unrelated emergency three blocks away” from where the protest was happening, according to a Boston Police Department (BPD) press release.
The horde of protesters involved about 200 to 300 people. They blocked the street, preventing law enforcement vehicles from passing through. “Many protesters, wearing facial coverings and gloves, interlocked arms, chanted over amplified bullhorns, and refused to clear the roadway,” the press release said.
