1. Good. Alnaji didn't ever care that Kessler was bleeding on the ground.

In the videos, you can see Alnaji shouting from the same megaphone he had just bashed Kessler's head with, as Kessler lay sprawled on the sidewalk. The dude is a sick, hateful man.

2. Everyone there wasnt like this asshole

The first person to attempt to help Mr. Kessler was a pro-palestine protestor.
