It's ugly, sad and frustrating to have one's tolerance tested by the intolerant, but it's not much different than what Al Gore's Westboro "Baptist" goons did to churches, funerals and such for more than ten years and there were far more than three of those goons. And it's that tolerance of speech, not our fear of it, that makes us American.
Hopefully this is something of a mind-opening experience to bafflingly liberal American Jews.
Pics or it didn’t happen.
American Jews have nothing to fear from conservatives. The left, on the other hand, is a different story. You think BLM is pro-Israel and not anti-Semitic? I doubt it.
Cernovich - “Nazi”
Milo - “Nazi”
Nah, didn’t happen. Reform Jews once called me a nazi for what?
For LIKING Sarah Palin..!
The smear means NOTHING, now.
Are they sure these were not leftists? So many fake hate crimes and unidentifiable effigies of Obama being hung out there.
I would have shot them on site. No money is out there to subsidize the white skin of someone, yet many liberal princesses out there support Manning getting is pride subsidized by my taxes for his sex change
You are a bit too gullible Piasa. How come not a single pic? And if it did happen, much more likely that it was anti-semetic antifa thugs.

The key here is that Reform in this instance means liberal. And its posted in a liberal rag.
So maybe just because they guy is liberal testifying for a liberal rag—doesn’t mean the guy didn’t feel threatened.
The problem is that this is a perfect liberal story ... maybe too perfect—like something out of To Kill A Mockingbird.
But we’ll never know for sure.
Something is just strange and wrong with these stories
Who are these punks?
What do they have to do with Robert E Lee statues, free speech or Donald Trump , who has a religious Jewish daughter and family?
I’d like to see a concerted effort to research their identities
Something just nags at me they they are plants and provocateurs
They are WAY too obvious and WAY too out of place at these rallies
The author writes for “reformjudaism.com”? That sounds kind of hokey right there.
How does he know they weren’t paid Rent A Mob anarchist punks, supplied by Self Hating Jew George Soros?
if true i condemn. calling the police is a good idea. unfortunately Forward has had quite the anti-Trump agenda so i’d have to see more proof.
Oh, I’m sure that many of the people FELT intimidated. Some remembering the old days, some, younger snowflakes that are intimidated by EVERYTHING.
Like 0bama’s “Typical white granny” who would cross the street to avoid walking close to black men, I’m sure that some of those people went out the back door because they didn’t want to have to see people who may or may not have wished them ill.
But barring photos or videos of them carrying signs about killing Jews, or shouting anti-jewish slogans at them, I imagine this is more imagination than threat.
IIRC, numerous eyewitness reports have said that the only people who showed up armed were some groups of Oathkeepers, who almost assuredly were not standing across the street from a synagogue menacing its congregants. This story sounds fake.
Every synagogue should have a gun club
