Anti-Semitic graffiti found in D.C. park on Thanksgiving morning

As David Abrams, 63, was walking his dog, Gabe, on Thanksgiving morning, he came across graffiti at Rose Park. “Dear Jews stop pushing war with Russia,” the message read.

It was written in two places on a black storage box near first base at the softball field at Rose Park in Northwest Washington.

Abrams, who is Jewish, said he was “disgusted, just totally, totally disgusted.”

Not only is the park a part of Abrams’s community, but he also lives across the street and is a member of the Friends of Rose Park board of directors.

Shocking! Jews being blamed for war. Gee, it sounds like a "little bit of history repeating." Of course, this is not "newsworthy" to most people because it is anti-Semitism and, therefore, irrelevant, especially if not from a certain direction on the political spectrum.

Hates Jews, loves Russia.

Here's one of dRumpf's fan boys calling his enemies 'commies', so he's pushing for war against the biggest commie, Putin:

I'm pretty sure that fan boy isn't Jewish, btw.

I didn't know I was supposed to be prejudiced.
When I left home in 1965 to live-work out of state I got an apartment with three other co-workers.

One was black,
one was Jewish,
one was gay,
and one (me) was a dumb old country boy.

We had some mighty fine times together.

Oh, and thanks to the Jewish guy for introducing me to cream cheese and bagels (hold the Lox).

Growing up in the military, I was around all kinds of people all the time.

I agree about the lox!
