News No-Goodnicks Strike Seattle U Campus
posted by on January 11 at 17:20 PM
Last week, several pieces of “hate-graffiti” were scrawled around Seattle University’s First Hill campus.
One of the school’s shuttle vans was tagged with a swastika and “Hitler,” while another swastika was painted on the wall of SU’s soccer field, accompanied by the word “racism.”
The school’s security called SPD after they found the graffiti but, according to a police report, there are no suspects or witnesses. The school used duct tape to cover the offending words and symbols.
The police report quotes a SU security officer as saying this is the first such incident on the school’s campus in “recent history.”
I'm not sure I agree that the word "racism" qualifies as "hate-graffiti." Unless it was followed by the words "is great."
Haters don't ordinarily paint "racism" on stuff. This sounds more like a messed up anti-bigotory art project or something.
There's been a bunch of this crap scrawled all over the men's bathrooms at Bellevue Community College recently.
First they came for our shuttle vans, then they came for our soccer fields.
In Deutschland, they prosecute this shit. On the Slog, some people worship squished dog turds as art.
This doesn't seem like hate graffiti to me... it's either an art thing, as suggest by #2, or it's some sort of protest or statement about racism in the soccer team or just the campus authorities as a whole.
Or maybe it was just the work of some confused and really stupid racist.
