Swastika Found On Obama Campaign Office In Colorado
WASHINGTON -- A swastika was found painted on the window of President Barack Obama's campaign office in a Denver, Colo., suburb late Thursday.
The black Nazi symbol was found by building owners painted outside a window of the office, located in the Denver suburb of Conifer, 9News.com reported. The office opened recently in the Jefferson County hamlet.
The Jefferson County sheriff's office did not immediately return a request for comment. 9News.com reports that Obama's campaign has not commented on the incident, which comes a week after a shot was fired into a window of Obama's Denver campaign office.
In 2009 during a Tea Party rally held to oppose the stimulus package on the day Obama signed the bill, a participant waved a sign bearing a swastika in the "O" of Obama's name. The sign holder had a picture taken with conservative activist Michelle Malkin and was reportedly on stage when then-state Senate Minority Leader Josh Penry (R-Grand Junction) spoke.
The swastika incident occurs two weeks after an Obama supporter in Tulsa, Okla., who had an Obama sign on his lawn reported receiving a death threat from a neighbor. Kyle Counts, a 27-year-old law student, told HuffPost that the neighbor engaged him an argument after seeing the sign and then yelled the threat, which was captured on video.

Kyle Counts, Obama Supporter, Says He Received Death Threat Over Yard Sign
An Oklahoma man is alleging that he received a death threat from his neighbor after he placed a sign in his front lawn supporting President Barack Obama.
Kyle Counts, of Tulsa, said that on Oct. 5, a neighbor started screaming at him based on the Obama lawn sign and followed it up with a threat to "shoot you guys," which Counts thinks means himself, his girlfriend and a friend who was visiting at the time. Counts, who first told his story to Fox 23 in Tulsa, told The Huffington Post that the interaction was the first time he had talked to the neighbor, who lives down the block, in the two months he has lived in the house.
