Just this past week, flyers were distributed all across California — including Amador, Marin, Calaveras and San Diego counties.

Frustrated that this piece of paper was likely protected under the First Amendment’s freedom of speech, Maneloveg opted to share his experience with the Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish civil rights organization, rather than contact local police and file a report.

Unfortunately, people think the Bay Area’s so liberal, but we certainly have our pockets of hate here, too.”

“The people who are doing this are trying to have maximum effect in the places they target,” Drenick said. “We immediately work with the community — from the individuals who report to us to the mayor or city council — to ensure that people know what’s happening. We also communicate with law enforcement, because sometimes they’ll be able to connect dots between one seemingly legal action that may provide clues or evidence to a larger investigation.
