JFM STATEMENT: Regarding Graffiti Vandalism in Madison on 2.14.15
From February 14th, 2015
The graffiti on the west side of Madison today was real, it was scary, and it was disappointing. The Madison Police Department has been very responsive and is investigating what happened. All acts of anti-Semitism and hatred need to be confronted and strongly condemned. What affects us affects others and we all need to stand together.
