Racist, anti-immigrant fliers found at South Seattle synagogues

SEATTLE -- The Seattle Police Department is investigating after racist, anti-immigrant fliers were found Sunday at South Seattle synagogues.

Police say they were called to a synagogue in the 6500 block of 52nd Avenue South about 10:30 a.m. Sunday after someone reported seeing a man wearing a mask outside the building.

A flier taped to the door of the synagogue containing racist and anti-immigrant messages was found around the same time, police said. The flier included a website URL for a hate group.

"Basically a big pile of hatred just essentially splashed up against a synagogue that they didn't like," said Shalev White, who attends Minyan Ohr Chadash, one of the two synagogues targeted.

They are not the majority of Americans they are just bullies who have a Bully Pulpit! Take that away from them, out them, show where they work, boycott where they work. We must do this! We have to stop being nice about this small faction of our country. They need to go back under their rocks.
