Antifa has threatened to burn down a New Jersey theater hosting a debate on political violence, according a statement by the event organizers. The far-left extremists also hacked the theater’s official Twitter account, promising to occupy it until it cancels the event. The discussion, titled “Ending Racism, Violence and Authoritarianism,” was organized by the free speech friendly social network Minds.com, and features a range of liberal, libertarian, and conservative speakers including journalist Andy Ngo, who was brutally attacked and hospitalized by Antifa in Portland earlier this year.
Other speakers include British YouTuber and recent political candidate Carl Benjamin, independent journalist Tim Pool, BlazeTV host Lauren Chen, Canadian feminist Meghan Murphy, and many others.
A spokeswoman for Minds.com said that Antifa have threatened to burn down the theater, and are also bombarding the owners with threatening messages and phonecalls.
Antifa have also resorted to cyber warfare, hacking the official Twitter account of the theater and promising to “occupy” it until the event is cancelled.

I congratulate the theater owners for standing up to the ANTI First amendment thugs.
It seems to me a threat of violence is a direct violation of the first amendment. Why don’t the authorities step up?
The Antifags won’t stop until they are stopped.
Age of Aquarius, baby.
There’s no white “nationalists” involved.

Yeah, and I could have come up with a few other reasons too.
I note the police never gave ANTIFA any guff, until our folks were on the street too. Then it was a push for them calling each side out of line.
Those folks up there don’t think too clearly.
It is long past time to declare antifa a terrorist organization.
It sounds like the DNC’s KGB squad is planning a hate crime. Where the hell are Obama’s “17 intelligence communities”? The Russkis they’ve been looking for over the past two and a half years are roaming our streets disguised as ISIS terrorists.
So these scum use the same tactics as Hitler’s Brown Shirts but call themselves “anti-fascist”.
TIME
No kidding! They’re opposed to a conference on political violence, so they threaten . . . political violence.
antifa = afitna
They did not mention in the article where the “Burn Down” threat was received. That is not good journalism.
I agree.
The only things that will stop Antifa is two magic numbers.
