UJA Federation Walk For Israel - Timelapse - Disrupted and shamed by protesters
- 2 days ago
There were troublemakers who assaulted two people. A women got slugged in the head from behind (with a piece of heavy wood) and another got hit with a megaphone in the face.
I didn't get time to turn the camera in that direction when it happened, however the individuals fled the scene and did not get arrested as a result.
I stayed where I was to avoid being a potential target for assault (JDL extremist group were present at the walk).
Majority of the participants in the walk itself were peaceful (I noticed the ones showing the sign of peace with their hands) and weren't intimidating anyone. Those shouting insults at the ones shaming them, were the ones who later caused problems (tossing something at the protestors was one such occurrence).
Music composed for the timelapse (the walk and those returning south in much smaller groups) is my own.
