Dozens of cars, homes tagged with anti-Semitic graffiti in San Antonio Jewish community

Dozens of cars, homes tagged with anti-Semitic graffiti in San Antonio Jewish community - San Antonio Express-News

This is utter nonsense. I hope they catch the people who did this. San Antonio has generally been very good to the Jewish community.

Ignorant hateful criminals.
I hope some kind of surveillance was used and helps to find these fools.

Heard about it, and it made my blood boil. There's NO room - OR excuse - for that in San Antonio (or anywhere else for that matter).

Even if I was violently opposed to someone's religion, that doesn't give me the right to act out against it. We need to ALL learn to accept each other for who and what they are, and take the time to at least learn about them and understand them. I might still disagree with them - but at least I will respect their right to worship as they wish.

Hope whoever did it gets caught!!

My guess is that it's a couple kids thinking they are being edgy and cool. Number one giveaway to me is the fact they switched ethnicities (spray painting the N-bomb) they were slurring somewhere along the away.

My understanding (and please correct me if I'm wrong), is that San Antonio's white gangs are prison-related and more about illicit business than spreading ethnic supremacy/separatist ideaology. Still dumb, but differently motivated than someone spray-painting ethnic slurs.

Given the high volume of stuff they did, my guess is they were local youth, who walked there to do that and are just idiots doing idiot things as opposed to an actual message of hate from a hate group. It could even be a single person lashing out.

I also agree that the change of ethnicity lends itself to idiots doing idiot things as opposed to an actual message from a hate group.

Probabilities are high that the perps are not even native Texans....or US citizens either. WE have a church on the Northside that is benevolent enough to bring refugees from some of the war torn areas. They teach them English and after that, they turn them loose in a 6 month paid apartment. Most of these folks have no clue what a frig is or how to shop an HEB as they've never seen one. Most end up on a welfare system as they've never had a job and have zero skills. They primarily put these folks in the Jewish area to IH10 and Wurzbach. Some have acclimated, some will never acclimate. Most would just like to go back home.

Hope alone isn't going to find them. Tell us how they will be found?

The police aren't stupid. Let them do their investigation. I have 100% faith that they'll figure this one out. I don't think these are the smartest little criminals around and they won't get away with it.
