LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- An attack on a new campaign office for President Barack Obama in West Los Angeles may have been politically motivated.
Pellets from a BB gun left marks next to re-election signs and familiar slogans posted at the office, located along the 6700 block of South Centinela Avenue in Westchester.
Three front-door windows and a side glass door were smashed. Plywood boards covered up some of the damage Friday.
Investigators said they did not find rocks or projectiles at the scene. They believe one or more attackers used BB guns to cause the damage.
Detectives believe the attack was politically motivated because no other businesses in the usually low-crime area were targeted. No threats were made before or after the attack.

"They could seriously have hurt someone if it had been something other than a pellet gun ..."Astounding logic.

Is this because Gunwalker is under investigation, and they are making a point, that they need more weapons -— Obama is not delivering to the drug cartel’s dependable high caliber rifles like they were expecting.
Are Drug Cartels part of the AFL/CIO’s foreign branch or domestic branch?

“oh no not BB guns!!!! oh the humanity!!!!!”
LOL ‘Just thinking the same thing. If it was a “right wing nut job” they would have used something a bit stronger.
