“The purpose of activities like this is to cause fear and to divide us,” Deutsch said. “I stand with our Jewish community and all who face intolerance. I believe that love always conquers hate. Please be good to each other.”

“The Dunwoody Police Department is aware that a number of residents of all faiths received anti-Semitic flyers in their driveways overnight,” Dunwoody Chief of Police, Billy Grogan, said. “We are actively investigating this incident and working closely with the Sandy Springs Police Department, as their community was victimized as well. If you have any information related to this case, please contact 911. There is no place for hate in Dunwoody.”

Sandy Springs Mayor Rusty Paul said on Facebook, “Overnight, some despicable individual(s) flyered our community with anti-Semitic, hate-filled material.”
