Looks like antisemitism is rearing its ugly head once again. Here in S.F. they are vandalizing the Holocaust memorial.
Those who behave like animals will die like one.

Police are looking for a man who they say spray-painted graffiti on San Francisco's Holocaust memorial.
Witnesses say they saw a man on Monday spraying red paint on the memorial, located near the city's scenic Legion of Honor museum.
Police say the tagger wore a white bandanna, carried a black messenger bag and fled in a car waiting nearby. Police did not describe the content of the graffiti, which city officials said was removed Tuesday.
City director of cultural affairs, Luis Cancel, said removing the graffiti costs between $6,000 and $8,000.
Cancel said the graffiti made reference to Israel, but did not know exactly what had been written.
The incident was at least the second time in recent months that the display of 11 life-sized figures was vandalized. Earlier this year, swastikas were drawn on the bronze sculpture using a black marker, and a swastika was scratched into a plaque near the statues.
Mayor Gavin Newsom issued a statement condemning the vandalism.
