Earlier this month, a family in Northridge, California, woke up to find three swastikas and the word “Jew” written in maple syrup on the walkway leading up to their home.
Following the April 3 incident, three teenaged girls have admitted that they were the culprits. While the teens will not have criminal charges waged against them, the mother of one of the girls could face up to one year in jail and a $1,000 fine over the incident, The Jewish Journal reports:
On Tuesday morning, April 3, a Northridge family awoke to find three swastikas and the word “Jew” written in maple syrup on their front walkway. The homeowner, the son of a Holocaust survivor, said maple syrup also covered his front door as well as two cars parked in front of the home. Feces were also found near the home’s front door, and toilet paper was strewn in the property’s trees.
Another nearby home was also defaced with toilet paper. While the girls were confirmed to be connected to these actions, they could not be charged, as the feces, toilet paper and syrup did not cause permanent damage. However, statistically, the incident will count as a hate crime.
“It was a very unfortunate incident, but it did not amount to a criminal act,” said Lt. Silva Atwater of the LAPD’s Devonshire Division.
According to the homeowner, the girls were former friends of his daughters and fellow students at the local Nobel Middle School.
“The girls need to understand the severity of what they did. This wasn’t a joke,” the father reportedly said. “That symbol (a swastika) has a very different meaning here at this house.”
The woman, police say, drove the girls to the scene. As a result, authorities are apparently seeking charges against her. The Journal continues, while also delving into actions the Los Angeles Unified School District may be taking against the young girls:
On April 6, police recommended that the City Attorney’s office charge the mother, whose name will be released if charged, with contributing to delinquency of a minor, which carries up to year in county jail and/or a $1,000 fine.
This is “what we feel is the most applicable charge under this circumstance,” Pitcher said.
And while the girls won’t be charged by police, Nobel took disciplinary action this week. School and district officials would not confirm a rumor that the girls had been either expelled of suspended.
Others in the community were in shock following the incident.
“This girl feels threatened by these other kids and how do you live like that?” said Morgan Braverman, a girl who who goes to temple with the young girl in the family that was targeted. “It’s even hard to tell people that you’re Jewish because you don’t know what they’ll think.”

Posted on April 14, 2012 at 10:38pmYou sir are ignorant. U.S. hate crime laws DO, in fact, also protect whites. In fact, the first major hate crimes case to reach the U.S. Supreme Court, Wisconsin v. Mitchell, involved a white victim. The black men, who nearly beat him to death solely because he is white, all got prison sentences. Mitchell, the black instigator of the beating, took his case to the Supreme Court because he felt the First Amendment protected his right to be a racist. The SCOTUS disagreed.

Well sure, if someone else gets special treatment, why not blame them for it, even if they didn’t ask for the treatment?
You know, I’m sure there are many Jews, Blacks, Gays, you name it – who don’t want this kind of attention. They don’t want special rules any more than white, straight people do. It’s that loud minority who make the news.
Why? Because the news agencies want the obnoxious minorities to make the news. Because so many people are too scared to stand up to a loud mouth in a public place.

Posted on April 11, 2012 at 6:43pm@JAYCEN:
I agree with your ““Hate Crimes” need to be stricken from all the books.”
Once upon a time, I asked one of Jewish activists:
“You know that Nazis murdered not only Jews but also even a bigger number of others – Gypsies, Polish Catholic priests, physically disabled, mentally ill, etc. The number of murdered Jews is still not determined precisely (and probably never will be), but it’s between 4.5MLN to 6.5MLN. The total number of Holocaust victims is 12 MLN. So, why on Earth you always talk only about murdered Jews?”
The answer was, I think, very cynical: “Why should we talk about others? It won’t benefit us. If they want, let them talk about themselves.”
When I hear about a next story like this one, I always pondering: “What if somebody draws on a walkway leading to a Jewish home a sickle and hammer and a red five-point star – Symbols of Bolsheviks? I bet the owners and the media won’t generate a story out of it. But why?
Report Post »Bolsheviks have annihilated many more own people than Hitler – foreigners. And yet, the Anti-Defamation League keep quiet on that issue. Why? Is that because a hugely disproportional number of Bolshevik leaders on all levels, who either personally or through orders committed heinous crimes against humanity in Russia, were Jews?
Was it more pleasant to dozens of Millions of people to be killed for non-ethnic reason than 6 MLN for being Jews?”
Such sad thoughts don’t abandon me…

Pranks are done for comedic value and this just isn’t funny. What preteen, as a prank, leaves feces on someone’s property? This is on par with egging someone’s house only much more personal. That’s not a prank, that’s one step short of vandalism.

Posted on April 11, 2012 at 2:01pmIts remarkable that the Jews being the ultimate victims in world history are no seen as the villians once again! Jews did a superb job of getting the message out about what happened to them during the dreadful years in Germany but only to have this sort of thing come around again perpetrated by non-victims who live in the land of plenty and relative peace and safety. The Jew is not the enemy, Satan and his games over mankind are. He uses victimhood, race, religion, color and creed to divide and pit one group against the other for centuries.
When are we gonna wise up to this?
BHO is doing the same things out in the open every time he opens his mouth its a message of entitlement, confiscation of wealth and transfer to others, demonization of the wealthy and corporations. No wonder kids think they can walk into a Chevron station and blatantly robbing it as if the food/stuffs were some how won in a free shopping spree. When you’ve got government giving their parents free checks to live on, then everything else must be free as well. I exist so you must take care of me or I’ll simply rob to take care of myself. We the American people are then the hostages.

Does this surprise anyone? Progressive liberals don’t raise their boys to be men; they don’t raise their girls to be woman; they don’t raise their children to respect the property of others; they don’t teach their children to respect others; they don’t teach their children the importance of self-reliance.

For instance if a bunch of atheists were to attack a group of evangelical Christians and the paint on them epithets about Jesus, that would be a hate crime against evangelicals. I think the so called “artists” that make horrible debasing pieces that debase christianity should be prosecuted with hate crimes as much as someone who paints black lynchings, or any other anti _________________ art designed to attack a particuliar race, color, or religon.
