MODESTO, Calif. — A Modesto man was arrested on Thursday, accused of distributing hateful graffiti through areas of Stanislaus County, the sheriff's office said.
On Wednesday, Sheriff Jeff Dirkse said they were aware of the disturbing graffiti that was found in a South Modesto neighborhood and in the community of Grayson, which included offensive racial slurs.

So how do I know it was directed towards Mexicans? Because South Modesto is a Mexican neighborhood and the town of Grayson is almost 100% Mexican. I stopped off in Grayson about 40 years ago to buy a pack of cigarettes and the woman in front of me was paying in pesos, I shit you not. I had never seen Mexican paper money before and thought it was a new design of food stamps.
