"A tiny eastern Iowa-based neo-Nazi group had designated Saturday the 25th as a national day of hate and in recent weeks individuals associated with other white supremacist groups and networks have indicated that they're going to participate," said Andrew Goretsky, Regional Director for ADL Philadelphia.Last month, security cameras captured a man throwing a Molotov cocktail at a synagogue in North Jersey.

We spoke with the Secure Community Network, a safety and security organization for the Jewish Community.They say recording and posting about it on social media will make it worse.

Security experts we spoke with today encourage anyone who sees anything suspicious to call it into local police.
