http://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/20/opinion/an-anti-semitic-troll-storm-in-montana.html?_r=0 A man is accused of attacking a Muslim woman at a Manhattan Dunkin Donuts on Sunday, throwing coffee in her face and putting her in a headlock. According to police, he told the woman he hated Muslims and was going to kill her. He has been charged with assault as a hate crime.
On Friday, a post on the anti-Semitic website the Daily Stormer called for a troll storm against Jewish people in Whitefish, Mont., where Sherry Spencer, the mother of the white nationalist leader Richard Spencer, owns a building. The posts author, apparently reacting to calls for Ms. Spencer to sell the building, published pictures of Whitefish residents, including a child, with Star of David symbols and the German word for Jew. The post advised readers not to use violence or threats, but several people targeted have received death threats.
Last Wednesday, a passerby noticed a swastika drawn on the side of a health clinic on the upper west side of Manhattan.
A Temple University student discovered swastikas, a racial slur and the message Trump 2016 written in snow on a car near the Philadelphia campus on Wednesday night.
