Wake up Jews. The Goyim dealt with this years ago in US. Now they have rules and laws for protection. But in US it was at Rock concerts where people were high and drunk. What is wrong with us? We go to a funeral to kill our brothers? Then stop organizing these events half baked and think about Jewish safety.
