    Unsurprising. A group of Syrian men pepper sprayed my daughters LGBT flag and lit my porch on fire trying to burn it. Police couldn’t find them, because they lived 2 apartment buildings down. Luckily it was absolutely soaked so I kept it up for 2 more years burned and scarred.

      I don’t understand this part. Shouldn’t that be the very reason why police should be able to find them?

        I think it was more a comment along the lines of “we tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas”

          That just makes me wonder so much more. How do we know they were Syrian and how do we know where they live without finding them?
