“A spokesperson for D.C. police initially said they were investigating the incident “as potentially being motivated by hate or bias,” but by Sunday afternoon, the department issued a statement saying “at this point there is no information or evidence that this offense was motivated by hate or bias.”

Umm windows smashed on the anniversary of Kristallnacht at a Jewish restaurant and there’s no suspicion of a hate crime?? Is this the new normal now?

In all honesty, windows get smashed at DC businesses on a fairly regular basis these days.

So perhaps it was a hate crime, but I'd arrive at that conclusion much more quickly if it had happened in suburbia.

Time will tell if it is a pattern.

Doesn't matter whether it's a hate crime. Intentional property damage is already a crime and can be prosecuted as such.

No, the hate crime charges are very useful. Do you want someone burning a cross on a lawn charged with vandalism?

A black race car driver finds a length of rope with a loop tied to a garage door to pull the door down shut and the social media world - including here in DCUM land - completely loses its damn mind with accusations of racism in NASCAR.

BUT

A Jewish restaurant in DC gets it windows smashed on *the anniversary* of krystallnacht, and DCUM shrugs and says there’s no proof of anything, it could just be random urban crime.






This is you, DCUM. This is who you are.

Either way it’s unlikely they’ll find the culprit

I’m Jewish and this was my reaction as well. Getting windows smashed or shot up is a pretty regular occurrence in DC and I’d bet if you polled the dc population, only the Jews even know what Kristallnacht was at this point. I’m betting on coincidence until evidence proves otherwise.

I’ve been genuinely depressed by the level of antisemitism on DCUM.

Antisemitism is now normalized.
