Congregation Beth Israel — a synagogue in the Fairfax district of Los Angeles was vandalized on May 30 with graffiti stating “free Palestine” and “f— Israel.”
Lisa Daftari, founder and editor of the foreign policy news outlet The Foreign Desk, first reported on the graffiti on social media.
“Synagogue Congregation Beth El (sic) on Beverly Blvd in Los Angeles vandalized… Tell me this ugly hatred is still about #BLM or #GeorgeFloyd?!” she tweeted.

The Catholic Church isn't the abstract 'institution.' It is 1.2 billion human beings. The more the discussions these days go toward the abstractions of 'institutional' crimes, 'systemic' injustice, the further radicalized the so-called solutions become. "Tear it all down!" "Property damage isn't violence!" I keep hearing-- without anyone mentioning that is radical, dangerous rhetoric!
I'm okay letting the 1.2 billion Catholics and the court system decide what to do about their problems, not some rioting thugs, domestic terrorists, or utopian ideologues.
Synagogues/temples/mosques are vandalized all the time and there's no "outrage" except among those in their communities. Saint Paddy's gets some graffiti and it's OMG, it's the end of the world!

Get a grip. Vandalized synagogues/temples/mosques are always big stories.
How does this help anyone? I am not Catholic and I am offended by this. This is St. Patrick's Cathedral on Fifth Ave in NYC.
You didn't really think that the purpose of vandalism or graffiti was to be helpful, did you? Keep in mind, though, unlike desecration of Muslim or Jewish locations - this isn't anti-Catholic.
