Cars Burned, Painted With Swastikas
Source: NBC news via MSNBC

Several cars were burned and others were painted with swastikas and the letters "KKK" in an anti-Semitic spree being probed by hate crimes investigators in Brooklyn.

Police are looking into the anti-Semitic graffiti and arson, which was discovered along Ocean Parkway near Avenue I in Midwood.

A number of benches were also covered with swastikas and other hate graffiti, officials said.

Thursday was the 73rd anniversary of Kristallnacht, the Nazis' 1938 anti-Jewish attack that left 91 Jews dead, damaged more than 1,000 synagogues and destroyed thousands of Jewish businesses.

Despicable, absolutely despicable.

I hope they catch the fuckers who did this and throw them in jail.

14. I'm willing to bet $1000 that whatever influenced the perps was not reading material.

I'll also give odds that they are employed adults. In the eyes of the law, anyway, since they're indubitably hateful morons.

I'm saying that merely based on past incidents. No telling anything until they are identified. Right now it could be anyone.

The Daily News found someone in the neighborhood who immediately pinned it on OWS. (Because it exists, see? Whatever happens is the fault of those hippies! I hear they're calling for cold weather soon -- it will be their fault!)

4. "KKK" stands for Koch Koch Koch, the "leaders" behind these actions.

10. Yes, I'm aware of that
but since a mechanical voice has not yet been made part of this site, that really doesn't matter.

12. Perhaps you didn't notice
The post was written KKK = "Koch Koch Koch" which refers to more than one Koch. Unless Eddie-boy has cloned himself, it's very obvious that this refers to the Koch Brothers (and yes, there is a third one).

7. Midwood is one of Brooklyn's heavily Jewish neighborhoods
its most famous native son is probably Allen Stewart Konigsberg, known to film buffs and neurotics the world over as Woody Allen.

Disgusting.
