The protesters did not make the televised program on NBC … but social media was flooded with snaps and video of them making their attempt … and the quick response from NYPD.
Some of the protesters sitting in the parade’s path held a large banner reading … “Don’t celebrate genocide!” … as some shouted “Free, free Palestine.”
