On our way into the city from New Jersey [View all]

I spotted a black pick-up truck sporting a Palestinian flag. He was next to us on Rte 46
I though about rolling down my window to ask why he wasn't flying a Trump flag as well.
Then I realized maybe not, I could get shot.

This is for real, and it's frightening.
Has anyone else seen these?
It was flown exactly the same way that Trump people do.

Yes, I did make the assumption Mossfern Nov 2023 #5

I would think that someone flying a Palestinian flag would be far left rather than a far right trumper. brush Nov 2023 #9

I saw that with an Israeli flag here in Pittsburgh. johnp3907 Nov 2023 #4
