Scott warned in an executive order Monday that a “threat of a potential emergency is imminent” in Alachua County, in north Florida. Spencer is slated to speak at the campus on Thursday.
Spencer participated in a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, that led to deadly violence in August.
Scott’s executive order will allow local law-enforcement authorities to partner with state and other law-enforcement agencies to provide security for the event. The university has already said it expects to spend $500,000 on security.
The governor is also activating the Florida National Guard to help with security if it is needed.
No excuse for being a Nazi.
Nazi and Trumpf supporter Spencer will be making his next speech in Monsey to great attendance and cheers. After all, he hates Israel, liberals and Hillary.
Where will all the BLM kooks be??? Kapernack should be available for a good protest.
