CHAOS: Muslim Pro-Palestine Activists Storm NYC Apple Store — NYPD Making Arrests


Happy Black Friday, everyone.

In New York City, absolute chaos broke out when dozens of pro-Palestine and Muslim rioters started wreaking havoc at an Apple store.

Several people ended up arrested by the police.

Backup here, if needed:

In total, four of the rioters were arrested.

Reportedly, these anti-Israel protestors were also rallying against Apple for benefiting from exploitative practices and supporting President Trump.

New York Daily News has more details:

Cops arrested four protesters who tried to block the entrance of the Midtown Apple Store during a Black Friday sale, police said.

A coalition of about 70 protesters, including pro-Palestinian demonstrators, holding signs reading, “Think before you buy” and “Israel is killing children,” and waving Palestinian flags, stopped outside the Apple Store on Fifth Ave. at E. 59th St. across from Central Park, where salespersons were offering Apple gift cards of up to $250 for each purchase as part of a Black Friday promotion.

More than a dozen cops were on hand to quickly handcuff protesters who refused to move from the scene or fought back against the officers.

Four protesters were handcuffed and detained. Charges were not immediately filed, an NYPD spokesman said.

The protesters claimed the tech giant benefits from exploitative cobalt mining in the Congo, and also slammed Apple’s ties to ICE and President Donald Trump.

Kudos to those police officers for taking swift action and keeping order.

Let’s see if that lasts in the coming months…
