The NYPD Intelligence and Counterterrorism bureau said the cautionary message is being circulated due to social media posts and video “instructing likeminded individuals to drop banners, place stickers and flyers, or scrawl graffiti” targeting Jews. They added that at least one person has disseminated a message encouraging these acts of hate to be recorded.
In the warning, the NYPD advised officers to maintain “elevated situational awareness” on Saturday, particularly at locations that “might garner higher interest from these types of actors.”
The Day of Hate appears to have been in the works for a while. On a channel of encrypted messaging app Telegram, members of Crew 319, a neo-Nazi group whose most visible action so far has been a flyer campaign in Iowa, a notice from Jan. 4 called on members to “make your voices heard loud and clear, that the one true enemy of the American people is the Jew.”
But the moderator warned members of the group “to follow their local laws. Crew 319 does not support or encourage any illegal activity. The Jews are watching.”
An NYPD spokesperson said that no threats within New York City have been identified but “out of an abundance of caution, the Department will deploy additional resources to sensitive locations, including houses of worship. We urge all New Yorkers to remain vigilant, and if you see anything suspicious, please call 1-888–NYC-SAFE.”
While the NYPD warning did not say that there was evidence of any acts of physical violence planned, some community groups are still on high alert.
In Westchester, New York, the Jewish Council sent out an advisory informing residents that, while the area had not been subject to a specific threat, “we must continue to be vigilant and to be aware of the threats that such groups pose.”

Besides being vigilant - we must RESPOND IN KIND!!!
"Day Of Love". When you see a Jew on the street - hug him. Men hug men. Ladies hug ladies. Lots of hugging. And say things like "I Love You!!! So Glad To See You!!!"๐๐๐๐๐๐
We must fight the Fire of Hatred with the Fire of Love.
And of course - keep your eyes open for any Neo-Nazis and guys named Adolph walking around. ืืื ืฉืื ืืืืจื!
