Antisemitic mob descends on historic NYC synagogue — urging the ‘resistance’ to ‘take another settler out’
New York lawmakers want to ban protests within 25 feet of houses of worship — in the aftermath of a hateful protest where a mob of anti-Israel demonstrators descended on a Manhattan synagogue chanting “death to the IDF.”
Legislation introduced by Assemblyman Micah Lasher (D-Manhattan) and Sen. Sam Sutton (D-Brooklyn) would outlaw demonstrations from taking place within 25 feet of the entrance, driveway or parking lot of a religious sanctuary.
Violators would face being charged with the crime of criminal interference with access to a place of religious worship in the first degree — a Class A misdemeanor — punishable by up to 1 year in prison.
