05/03/2008: "Brooklyn elementary school hit with 'Jump White People' graffiti"

Disturbing, gang-like graffiti is cropping up all over a Brooklyn elementary school, marring a playground, classrooms and two teachers' cars, authorities said.

The troubling words "Jump White People" and abbreviation "JWP" have appeared at Public School 224 in East New York about a dozen times in the past three weeks, and some teachers are concerned that it's not being taken seriously.

"It just quietly gets erased," one teacher said. "Nothing gets done."

[ That's such a trendy idea! Kids are getting into gang culture at younger ages than ever. ]
