Readers Write: Pre-election Trump rally peaceful in GN

The Island Now

I not a political person, but I decided to join the pro-Trump rally and parade in Great Neck last Nov. 1.  There were no racist comments from the peaceful pro-Trump parade.  The parade included hundreds of cars (a lot more than the 125 you reported), waving American and Israeli flags.  The parade concluded at Parkwood with joyful singing and dancing.

The only unpleasantness during the day that I encountered was two anti-Trump people standing in the middle of the road on Arrandale Avenue, near Middle Neck Road, stopping the cars and yelling at the people in the cars (including me) to go home.
