A college in Atlanta was stricken by a Neo-Nazi spray painter. A small fraternity in the small college of Emory University was spray painted with a giant swastika on the outer wall of the house on Yom Kippur, an incredibly sacred day in Judaism. Of course the frat house is furious and the authorities say they are doing their best to catch the culprit but have had no luck as of yet. Th person will be charged with Anti-Semitic Hate Profiling.

Ok so first of all what the HECK!? How can you even do that without being noticed? I feel like many of these crimes could be prevented just by looking out the front window. Anyway on to the main point and that is how awful this whole crime is. I truly think this is a serious hate crime and should be very harshly punishable. People take the first amendment right, twist it and come back out with something completely unethical. Also that is not the first time something like this has happened, in almost every major migration of a new group of people to America there has been propaganda and hateful art put up for all to see. The civil rights were about this kind of thing for heavens sake! Show a little respect for your country and your fellow Americans!
