Missoula judge advances suit against neo-Nazi who attacked Whitefish real estate agent

A federal magistrate in Missoula has denied neo-Nazi Andrew Anglin’s motion to dismiss a harassment case brought against him by a Whitefish woman over a hate-filled troll storm he unleashed on her last year.

Anglin owns the Daily Stormer, a neo-Nazi website that promotes white nationalism. Last year he began an online campaign against Tanya Gersh, a real estate agent and woman of Jewish faith who lives in Whitefish.

Anglin targeted Gersh after she backed out of a real estate deal with Sherry Spencer, the mother of alt-right nationalist leader Richard Spencer who also lives part-time in Whitefish. The soured when Sherry Spencer published an online account claiming Gersh had advised her to sell her retail space and donate part of the sale proceeds to a local human-rights group.

On Dec. 17, the day after Spencer’s blog post appeared, Anglin posted the first of dozens of posts about Gersh. According to court documents, Anglin’s Dec. 16, 2016, article was titled “Jews Targeting Richard Spencer’s Mother for Harassment and Extortion – TAKE ACTION!”

Anglin called for a “troll storm” against Gersh and included contact information for Gersh, her husband, and her 12-year old son. Anglin encouraged readers of the Daily Stormer to contact Gersh and members of her family to “tell them you are sickened by their Jew agenda” and make their opinions of her behavior known, according to Gersh’s lawsuit.

Soon after Anglin’s first article went live, Gersh says she and her family began receiving hundreds of threatening and harassing communications, including phone calls, voicemails, text message, e-mails, letters, and social media comments.

Anglin is allegedly hiding out in the white supremacist haven of Thailand, where I hear pedophilia is not a crime, and pasty white guy like him with certain, um, "deficiencies", can still be "honored". But I fear that eventually, Andrew will have to face the bagels, so to speak.
