“An autopsy was performed on November 6th and the Ventura County Medical Examiner’s Office determined the cause of death to be blunt force head injury and the manner of death homicide.”
Tragic.
Rabbi Michael Barclay of Temple Ner Simcha in Westlake Village, near Thousand Oaks, urged people to avoid jumping to conclusions about what happened.
He said police are being cautious before making accusations. “We need to do the same; and not let this become a spark that starts an inferno,” he wrote.
Before people use this incident to instigate hate, I will point out even in the thumbnail photo, people are assisting the man from both protest groups.

Because most people from both groups just want peace. They just don’t agree on the definition of peace. But both of them want the war to stop. If only they were in agreement on the details, they would get along.
So I would say that they were, in general, good people. And that’s why they helped him.
If it was by a megaphone, that implies it was by a organizer which doesn’t look good. It’s already hard enough to not look anti-semitic while supporting Palestine without these events happening all around the world. (Plus synagogues getting threatened and so forth.)
We shouldn’t jump to conclusions
Immediately jumps to conclusions
Of course the 19 day old account is jumping to conclusions. That’s what it was created for in the first place.
This account is lot older than 19 days. I had to recreate it when my instance exploded recently =( Anyway, just musing. Hopefully the story is a lot different.
Haha I said “if”. It’s a comment section, there’s nothing else to do but comment.
Palestinians are semites too, how can supporting semites be anti-semitic?
because your defintion of the word is wrong. Here is the worldwide accepted definition of it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisemitism
Antisemitism (also spelled anti-semitism or anti-Semitism)[a] is hostility to, prejudice towards, or discrimination against Jews.[2][3][4] This sentiment is a form of racism,[5][6] and a person who harbours it is called an antisemite.
and especially regarding your statement:
Though ‘antisemitism’ could be construed as prejudice against people who speak other Semitic languages, this is not how the term is commonly used.

Oh god, someone still knows these things. It’s a better day now.
Yes but when a dictionary does its job and is trustworthy then that is practically the same thing. And in this case it is very much right. Ask anyone what antisemitism means and they will mention Jewish people not people who speak semitic languages.
Then they should use a different word, and stop hiding behind it to escape legitimate criticism.
this is a worldwide (!) accepted and established defintion of the word, but because you dont want to use it in it’s correct definition everybody else should change?

Smart people definitely post Mike Myers gifs when making a serious argument.
