"Far too many people," David said, "are ignoring the very real dangers that Jewish people face every day." He emphasized the need for greater awareness and proactive measures to combat hate and protect Jewish communities across the country. The shooting, he argued, should serve as a wake-up call to address the rising tide of antisemitism and ensure the safety and security of all Jewish individuals.
