Democratic officials in North Carolina have asked law enforcement to step up protection of campaign workers after Orange County offices for both the Republican and Democratic parties were targeted on the same day.

On Sunday, the Republican Party said that its Orange County headquarters was set ablaze by vandals. Graffiti found on a nearby building said, “Nazi Republicans leave town or else.”

In a message posted to Twitter, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump blamed the attack on “animals representing Hillary Clinton and Dems in North Carolina.”

But Orange County Democratic Party Chair Matt Hughes told Raw Story on Monday that vandals had also targeted his offices in Carrboro. Both attacks were said to have occurred early Sunday morning.

A couple of years ago 11 anarchists were arrested after they vandalized buildings in downtown Asheville-- Not sure if there is a connection.

10. They're just sooooo liberal, aren't they?

Yet the biggest owners of our media are large corporations run by people wanting lower taxes for them and more "corporate welfare."

[niyad]

12. had a "discussion" the other day with some fool who was trying to insist that the media is liberal.

impossible to get these cretins to understand that they have been lied to, over and over and over and. . . . .

15. A newspaper like the New York Times is "liberal garbage" to them UNLESS...

... it contains something they deem favorable to Republicans. Then it MUST be true because "even the New York Times says it!"

Not to mention how FOX News and AM talk radio somehow avoids the "media" designation in their minds.

Very strange folks.

All of you should throw your voices into their ears!

17. Done. n/t

16. Honestly, I don't know why anyone would vandalize the Republican

headquarters in Orange county. The place is heavily Democratic and there's no chance in bloody hell of Trump making any inroads. Rethugs don't call it the Peoples Republic of Chapel Hill for nothing. Of all places in NC. Something just stinks about it.

Love the place. My family roots go deep there.

18. Finally shown on my NC ABC local news, showed "death to capitalists" and anarchist symbolism

The newscaster said there was no reason to believe the two incidents were connected. Hard to believe each of the major party headquarters was hit in the same place on the same night, but no connection?

They showed "death to capitalists" sprayed as well as a hanging noose symbol and another symbol
