“The Pittsburgh Department of Public Safety and the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police are aware of and are investigating the dissemination of anti-Semitic pamphlets in Pittsburgh neighborhoods, including Squirrel Hill,” the department said on Twitter.

“Such hate-filled material will not be tolerated in Pittsburgh — not by residents, city officials nor Law enforcement,” the statement added. “The Department of Public Safety assures the community that we are taking this matter very seriously and will follow every investigative avenue.”

“Pittsburgh is and will remain stronger than hate.”

The department of public safety did not provide details about the contents of the pamphlets, or the specific locations in which they were found. …

Pittsburgh can’t take any action - this is purely a first amendment protected right.

This is disgusting, but no more disgusting than what Farrakhan has said and gotten away with.

But if you say the truth about the NOI, they come after you with the full force of the law for “hate speech” of course.

Pamphlets that attack Christians also “hate speech”?

We have the 1st Amendment (last I checked). Absent a call to immediate violence, how is this something worthy of criminal investigation?

If they hand out the Koran, that hate speech?

How are hate filled screeds not covered by the First Amendment?

Leftist pro-pali youths, would be one guess.

Just a few years ago, liberals led by the ACLU would counter that this is constitutionally-protected free speech.

OLD NEWS!!!

Dateline on article is 10/12/18...but don't worry, your post, even though it is just an attempt to justify your existance on the planet, will succeed in inflaming emotions needlessly.

Wrong. Date format is day/month/year on that website, not month/day/year.

It’s not illegal to distribute pamphlets.

They can get them for Hate Littering.

Remember, Hate is a Motive, not a Crime. Well, that’s how it’s supposed to work in a Constitutional Republic anyway.

Waiting for the fakerytobe uncovered.

The bigger news is around the entire Baltimore region, for the last month, alleged KKK fliers have been turning up in open areas.

For one, NEVER is it stated that these are ALLEGED fliers. It is presumed immediately that it is truly white KKK racists and not fake, as this Pittsburgh thing does. Second, what I have seen of these fliers is not truly racist. There is complaining about having to be ashamed of whiteness and the like, which we all know is damn true. What I see is no worse than the rants by blacks, often in writing also.

Wait for all these to be found bogus, and just planted by muck-rakers.

Check the other items in your source site and see what date format they have. They all appear to be in month/day/year format. But who’s quibbling.

If you’re getting MMDDYY on your end, then the article should read 12/10/18 when it’s clicked. I’m getting DDMMYY on my end when I look at that site.

And no, I wasn’t quibbling.

This was on our local (Pittsburgh) news tonight. My mom turned the channel as I started ranting when I saw it. They have been using the synagogue shooting as a tool to spread the implication that this city & country are cesspools of Nazi/white supremacist hate. It is nuts.
