On a quiet street in Mastic, residents found over a dozen cars had racial slurs sprayed on them. Newsday reports some target President-elect Obama--"The graffiti included racial slurs, as well as sexually graphic references."--and that neighbors were shocked, with one saying, "I'm really surprised. This is like the United Nations here." One of the victims told WCBS 880's Mike Xirinachs (who took the photo), "It's all over the place. It's just sickening. You know...it's sad. It really is sad," but another said, "One thing about something like this - when everybody becomes a victim - it brings us all a little bit closer together."




Ah, Long Island..
Racists on Long Island? Shocking.
I'd never live anywhere in NY that has the word Island on the end.
Mastic/Shirley is the white-trashiest part of LI.
what a dump
republicans inciting rage yet again.
Mastic is a abyss of hillbilly ethic. This is the epicenter of white-trash ideals.
Welcome to Barack HUSSEIN Obama's Amerikka where cult followers spread their mayhem.
