Residents React To Swastikas In East Meadow
EAST MEADOW, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) - Painful and hurtful are how residents of East Meadow characterize the finding of swastikas drawn on the sidewalk on Andrea Road and Sherwood Roads.
They were discovered over the weekend.
It's not funny, said resident Marlene Gold.
"I don't think anything is a joke. When you do those kind of things, I think they're malicious and they're underlying hatred," she told WCBS 880 Long Island Bureau Chief Mike Xirinachs.
