Mayor of Los Angeles Eric Garcetti made a statement condemning an incident when Armenian family received a threatening note after hanging an Armenian flag, Asbarez reported.

LA resident Hasmik Chatalyan  discovered a threatening note in her family’s mailbox, after they had hung an Armenian flag from their home, and to honor the Armenian soldiers who fell heroically.

“We will not tolerate crimes that are meant not only to inflict harm, but to instill fear. This week, as we remember the victims of the Armenian Genocide, we must also recognize ongoing prejudice against the Armenian community. Disturbing acts of hatred like that suffered by the Chatalyan family have no place in Los Angeles. In this city, we do not push people out, we come together. We must treat one another with love and respect, and reject any ideologies that try to divide us,” the statement reads.

Earlier the incident was condemned by Congressman Adam Schiff.
