Anti-semitic graffiti appears on sidewalks in Venice
VENICE, California (KCAL, KCBS) A small but hateful message appeared on the sidewalk on Abbot Kinney leading one Los Angeles resident to take matters into his own hands.
Daniel Khalili took a video of himself spray painting over an anti-Semitic message he found on the sidewalk in Venice last week.
“I saw some graffiti that said “the jew is guilty” and it was in a stencil so it was obvious somebody did this beforehand,” Khalili said.
He decided to take matters into his own hands.
“I thought the best thing to do was to cover it up so that this didn’t get seen. I didn’t want someone to think they could do this on Abbot Kinney and that it would be okay,” Khalili said.
