I’m sorry that this happens, but that is most definitely not spray paint

what was the mosque doing that someone felt the need to go vandalize it?

Most crimes like this are just stupid. Nothing they do impacts your life, leave other people alone, and find better shit to do.

Right - this is already illegal so calling it a hate crime seems like an attempt to impute a thought crime to someone we don't know anything about.

And frankly, I assume most graffiti is somewhere between 'art' (in someone's eyes) and stupidity/childishness (and not necessarily by a child). These folks should just have to fix it.

If it's committed by an adult they should face consequences for it.

You don't just go tagging places of worship, it's just a matter of respect.

I was trying to avoid that point, but I actually agree - sorry if it didn't come across that way. It is still a childish thing to do in many (most?) cases.

ETA: I mostly think all people really want is to be put the way they were before anything happened. Chief among them being members of most religious institutions.

According to the inquirer article it was grafitti’d with things like “Jesus Christ” and Star of David crossed out which I think regardless of how you view tagging religious institutions generally moves it into the realm of hate crimes

The silver lining here is that the suspect is wanted.

When isn’t a suspect wanted? Doesn’t them being suspected mean people are curious about what they know?
