Anti-Semitism is on the rise across the country and one more terrifying incident happened today in California.
A man in Los Angeles was arrested this morning for breaking into the home of a Jewish family and threatened to kill them with a knife while shouting "Free Palestine."https://t.co/zihUardOlE

The break-in happened around 5:20 a.m. in the 3000 block of Laurel Canyon Boulevard, according to Los Angeles Police.
The victim, who is nine months pregnant, told KTLA’s Ellina Abovian that the intruder first kicked in the door to their master bedroom. Her husband fought with him while she called 911.
“[He said] I’m going to kill you because you are Jewish … Israel kills people,” she said in broken English.
How scary!
Officers arrived and found him armed with a kitchen knife, Key News reported. He was taken into custody without further incident and shouted, “Free Palestine” and “Brown Lives Matter” as he was cuffed and placed in a police cruiser, Key News video shows.
No property was taken, and no injuries were reported.
The homeowner believes the intruder may have been intoxicated, and she also believes she has seen him before. It was not immediately known what charges he faces and police had not released his name as of midday Wednesday.
Thank goodness the homeowner and their four children are safe.

Don't hold your breath.
I fear this is only the beginning of a much larger problem. https://t.co/movyBzQypP

After the events happening just today at colleges and universities across the country, it is a very real fear.
No credible threats, right Biden? https://t.co/oZ2UnjILjA

This feels quite credible and very real.

As well as all other people spouting terrible rhetoric.
WARNING: Anti-Semites are Masquerading as Pro-Palestinians.

When they say "Free Palestine", what they mean is "Jew-free Palestine"
— NOTAWARTHOG (@warthogster) October 25, 2023
That is precisely what they mean.

What nationality is he? Is he an illegal alien?
— @newcecelia (@newcecelia) October 25, 2023
That's an excellent question. As this is in California, it will likely never be reported if he is here illegally.
Instead of putting him in jail, use my tax dollars for a trip to Palestine, this way he can fight for the supposed freedom they want.

That sounds like a perfect idea. California should take note.
