The Washington Post reported that neo-Nazis visited the home Raw Story reporter Jordan Green after his reporting found Pensacola teens involved in a brick attack on a Jewish Center in Pensacola were tied to 2119 Blood and Soil Crew.
Photos the intruders posted on social media show five people wearing skull face masks. One had a shirt praising German death squads in the Holocaust. Another held a sign: “Freedom of press does not equal freedom from consequences.”
Green wasn’t intimidated and reported his investigation into 2119 on Raw Story yesterday.
Green writes about the four Pensacola white teenagers collectively charged with 18 felonies involving attacks on two synagogues, a mosque, Masonic Lodge and the Chabad Jewish Center.
Their Neo-Nazi gang started as a group of under-18 boys “united by their interest in fight training, mixed martial arts and white nationalist activism,” according to Green.
They renamed themselves “Revolutionary White Brotherhood” and later resurfaced as “2119.”
