As a deadly battle raged in the Gaza Strip between Hamas terrorists and Israel, Jewish Americans are seeking support from their community amid a rash of anti-Semitic sentiment and attacks.
"A lot of people are definitely scared," actor Jonathan Lipnicki, 30, told the Los Angeles Times. "It's a scary time for the Jewish community."
Palestinian supporters in the U.S. are taking to the streets to terrorize the Jewish communities in American cities and the Fairfax District of L.A. has banded together to form a neighborhood watch to help people from Orthodox Jewish community walk home safely, according to the report.
The group sprang up through an Instagram post in the city by Remi Franklin, 37, a jujitsu practitioner, and is now being copied throughout the world, he told the Times.
"It's jiu-jitsu, it's boxing, it's mixed martial arts, and it's people that are just friends with them and want to do something," Franklin told the Times. "We have ladies who are former dancers and gymnasts who are walking with people because it makes the women feel more comfortable.
"These people are just here to enjoy family and walk to shul and walk home, and they should have that safety."
The added security is bolstered by more police presence in the area, but anything helps as fear is heightened in the Jewish community.
"I have never felt so scared being in Los Angeles," Steve Goldstein, 35, told the Times after his synagogue off La Brea had people shouting: "Death to Jews!"

My son lives in LA, Sierra Madre, specifically.
May God protect them.
Please, please next time STOP VOTING DEM EVERY ELECTION.
The 27% who voted for Trump are on the right side of history.
Not anti anything here except always anti-Dem and anti-Marxist.
Hells Angels should do the trick.
Well, there’s always Christianity as an option.
Slavery ended 156 years ago and I know you are getting up there in age so don't hesitate to use your walker or your cane to give the Marxists a good rap on their noggins, sir.
I'll take a swipe with an issue of Prevention rolled up with one of Reader's Digest from my bathroom. Teach 'em. That'll leave a mark.
I’d be scared too if I was a Jew and lived in a city. I think it would be wise to be cautious and observant of community surroundings.
AND I would vote conservative.
Nope they’ll vote Dem forever. Thats why I never give too much of a crap about these things.
Sounds like the 27 White Supremacists who have been terrorizing millions of Asians are now terrorizing millions of Jews.
Damn, they sure do get around!
“...Palestinian supporters in the U.S. are taking to the streets to terrorize the Jewish communities...”
“It’s jiu-jitsu, it’s boxing, it’s mixed martial arts, and it’s people that are just friends with them and want to do something,”
LOL, just buy a gun. Oh wait...
Don’t these wild donkeys hold Ishmael in high esteem?
The angel of the Lord also said to her:
“You are now pregnant
and you will give birth to a son.
You shall name him Ishmael,[a]
for the Lord has heard of your misery.
12 He will be a wild donkey of a man;
his hand will be against everyone
and everyone’s hand against him,
and he will live in hostility
toward[b] all his brothers.”
Rd later.
Sierra Madre has its own police department. It is such an idyllic community that they film movies there when they want to depict a lovely middle America neighborhood.
Those white supremacists are getting out of control
So it’s come to this in Democrat controlled California, in Democrat controlled Los Angeles, with the far-left DA George Gascon at the helm.
Roving gangs are marauding through Jewish neighborhoods looking for people to beat up. This never ends well if its allowed to metastasize.
Dime a dozen they voted rat and BlM.. heck, they invented the BLM.
Jews as apprentice sorcerers of politics are a big fail. It is not because there is an assumed concentration of confessed antisemites in the Nazi party that the left’s general populus has any less antisemites. It is as if the general antisemitism had disappeared because Hitler. It is one thing to be a leftist jew, an entirely different one to be a plain leftist. There it does not cure from antisemitism.
It has been allowed to metastize because of election fraud. Those in power do not care anymore one way or the other as a result. It actually is beneficial for them to get rid of the undesirable civilized people capable,of denouncing them.
Are you proposing conversion as a means to avoid these attacks by savages?
Well, at least you're consistent. Every forum needs its resident anal orifice. But I hear Groupon has a coupon for lessons in tact. Maybe you should sign up for some.
