Racist and Anti-Semitic Graffiti Shock a Beachfront Oasis
NYT ^ | Sept. 2, 2019 | Eliza Shapiro and Ashley Southall

SNIP

Word soon spread that the playground had been covered with racist and anti-Semitic graffiti. “Heil Hitler” was scrawled in large block letters. White walls were smeared with a red swastika and racial slurs targeting black people. The words “gas chamber” were painted on a door, according to photos shared with The New York Times.

Investigators believe a group broke into a shed that the club uses for arts programs on Friday and vandalized the interior. The vandals then proceeded to “trash the room,” Sergeant Firrito said. He first said the incident appeared to have happened after the beach club had closed for the day, but later clarified that it apparently had occurred during opening hours.

“You can gloss it over. You can talk about it being a prank,” Mr. Bretstein said. “But it’s much more than a prank, especially in terms of the times we’re living in when you’re seeing a rise in anti-Semitism everywhere.”

Until you identify the suspect you can't determine the motive.

The speculation is all over the map on this one.

An inside job? True anti-semitism or just a prank? A hoax meant to 'raise awareness of the rise of anti-semitism'?

If we don't hear about this again, it was a hoax.

It could just as easily be antifa gaslighting again. “Keep racism alive” is their motto.

#1. You are right in trying to guess which “one” of your explanations is the “real” one. Only time will tell.

However, I detect a hidden bias and anti-Semitism by the NY Slimes against “white privilege” (i.e. private beaches/clubs and gated communities) as well as against supposedly wealthy Jews (who are the major component group discussed in this article re the “beach/club-house”).

Let’s wait and see what develops. You just can’t depend on the NY Times for the truth, the WHOLE truth and nothing but the truth.

Damned near every evidence of it faked...

If it made it to the NYT, hoax is the most likely scenario.

Agreed... As a news outlet the entire NYT is nothing but a hoax.. It's like looking to Mad Magazine for your news...

As I said, this article is all over the map.

It's a private club but members are Jewish and Holocaust survivors.

What are we to take from this? Jews are operating a segregated private club? Did they invite this attack because they run a private club? Is this private club a victim of racism and antisemitism or is this attack somehow justified because this club is private?

About a week ago my neighbor here in the marina walked into our large bathroom about 7::300 pm. Scrawled on 2 of the shower doors was F—- Trump and Kill whitey. No one called the news. She called me because she was in there alone and it scared her. And she’s Latina.

How thick would the NYT be if every anti-honky mention and scrawl got a freaking COLUMN out of it..?

Jesus.
