Conversely, many pro-Palestinian individuals are protesting by tearing down these posters. Several individuals, caught in the act on camera, have faced public humiliation on social media, job loss, and in one case, a young Jewish man was even let go from his father's graphic design firm due to his father's indignation over his actions.
The situation has led to frequent arrests, confrontations, and violent skirmishes.

The New York Police Department has been alerted to these incidents.
