Hate Leaflets Dropped in Mostly Jewish Suburb
Hundreds of packets of racist and anti-Semitic pamphlets and fliers were dropped on lawns across Sharon, a predominantly Jewish suburb of Boston.
The white supremacist leaflets were signed by a West Virginia-based group called the National Alliance.
The pamphleteers’ only violation was littering, but police “still want to find out who did this,” Police Lt. J.J. McGrath told the Boston Sunday Globe.
Rob Leikind, director of the Anti-Defamation League of New England, called the contents of the leaflets “classic Nazi hate theories.”
