the NYPD will do nothing, they did nothing about the graves that were toppled in Washington cemetary a Yiddish cemetary, they will say its just hooliganism. If this was against Muslims then Abe Foxman would be on top of it himself.
Poor nazi, he can’t even figure out how to make a swastika. Probably some kid at risk.
