The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) today said it was deeply disturbed by an apparent anti-Semitic attack at Camp Karlin Stolin, a Jewish summer camp in Highland, New York, and praised the Town of Lloyd Police Department for a quick response and arrest of the suspected perpetrators.
According to reports, three 18-year-old assailants threw bottles and coins at campers and staff. Two of the perpetrators are being charged with a bias crime for aggravated harassment and conspiracy. The third suspect is facing a conspiracy charge.
“If the reports are accurate, this incident is deeply disturbing and particularly troubling because it targeted a summer camp where youth gather to experience a fun, healthy and safe environment,” said Evan R. Bernstein, ADL New York Regional Director. “The fact that this act was committed at a Jewish summer camp clearly reflects what can only be described as hate and strong anti-Jewish feelings of the perpetrators...”
...According to the ADL’s annual Audit of Anti-Semitic Incidents which tracks both criminal and non-criminal acts of anti-Semitism, New York State experienced a 14 percent increase in anti-Semitic incidents in 2014, including 20 incidents in Westchester, Rockland County and upstate...
Oh, so an anti-Jewish attack is merely a bias attack.
Highland, NY is a long way from Westchester County...its closer to poughkeepsi, aka tawana brawley country...
More diaperheads - more dangerous bigotry.
They have to go.
the ages of the mooselims perps wasnt mentioned but I suspect that it’s not that important in the grand scheme of things
Couldn’t be more right.
This article is very incomplete
No mention of who the perps were. Maybe it was just a case of boys being boys?
Don’t make us guess - report the truth.
Absolutely. It’s not just in this country. It makes me sick what is happening also in Sweden.
"Highland, NY is a long way from Westchester County...its closer to poughkeepsi, aka tawana brawley country..."- God luvs AmericaActually, Highland is in Orange County due west & across the Hudson River from Poughkeepsie which is in Dutchess County. Wappingers Falls, a town also in Dutchess County lies south of Poughkeepsie and is the location of the Brawley affair.
It’s an attack. That alone makes it unacceptable.
It kind of cheeses me off that it’s an exceptionally bad thing to attack on everybody but me. To attack me can actuallu br sern as meritprious.
"Brandon C. Mack, Ariel A. Sanchez and Travis J. Cuvelier were arrested by Lloyd police about 8 p.m. Thursday. Cuvelier and Sanchez were charged with aggravated harassment and conspiracy, both misdemeanors, police said, while Mack was charged only with conspiracy.
three 18 year old assailants?
Good grief. Posting from my phone.

I was “peeved” enough Io be fairly distracted evidently.
Thanks
from the photos and the names they dont appear to be mooselimic....
I'm not saying it was an actual test run, sounds like three boneheaded kids, but now the muzzies know the response time and capacities of the local police...
My point was they called a bias attack which I’ve rarely heard used meaning I guess it’s less offensive than a hate crime which produces a penalty of sorts. I guess attacks against Christian and Jews are bias attacks whereas ......
I can see kids doing this. They hear a lot of antisemitism in rap music today. It would make them feel “gangsta”.
