HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. — A meeting place for republicans in Orange County was vandalized Saturday night.
According to officers with the Hillsborough Police Department, the building at 347 Ja-Max Drive was vandalized overnight with graffiti and a flammable substance. Officials say the graffiti included a swastika and the words "Nazi Republicans leave town or else." The words were painted in black on the side of a business located adjacent to the headquarters.
The flammable substance, which was contained in a bottle and thrown through one of the building's front windows, burned some furniture and damaged the building's interior before extinguishing itself.
“This highly disturbing act goes far beyond vandalizing property," Hillsborough Mayor Tom Stevens said. "It willfully threatens our community’s safety, and its hateful message undermines decency, respect and integrity in civic participation."

Unbelievable! Whoever did this is a disgusting individual(s). Luckily, no one was hurt or killed. Understandably, this has made national news and yet again puts North Carolina on the map in a negative light. I have a good mind to go over there tomorrow and help them clean up. And I am a Democrat.

My guess is that the Republicans destroyed their own building so that they could blame it on Dems. The elections are near and Republicans are desperate in the Triangle.
