    I live adjacent to an extremely rich area in California. I wore a shirt with a faded Palestine flag on a walk to the library and back through those neighborhoods and the first person I ran into was a young guy, maybe high school age, who gave me a full up-down look and then mean-mugged silently as we passed on the sidewalk. For a split second I wasn't sure what that was about, but then I looked down and realized. Shameful that anyone could support Israel in the US though. Even more shameful that anyone supports our government.

      There's a church down the street from me that flies an Israeli flag. I've biked past them twice a day, clearly wearing a keffiyeh that's sometimes fully wrapped around my face, and even they haven't said or done anything even when there are people milling about outside.

      I've been practicing what I'd say or do if I encounter a rabid Zionist in the wild but so far it hasn't occurred
