Racist flyer targeting Indians and Indian Americans, was first received by residents in McKinney, Texas. It has been received by an Indian family in the Riverstone community in Fort Bend, Texas.
The family in Fort Bend found the flyer left at their home in the middle of the night. The opening sentence was “Our new President, Donald J Trump is God’s gift to the white nation.” It added: “we need to get rid of Muslims, Indians, and Jews,” telling them to “get out of Texas and go back to where you came from.”

The family, is too frightened to report it to police, much less discuss it publicly. They don’t know if they were specifically targeted or if their house was selected at random.
“It is literally spewing in word form hate for everybody who isn’t white Anglo Saxon,” Wadawhan said. “That’s basically what this letter says.”
Several homes in Sienna Plantation, which neighbors Riverstone, had swatiskas spray painted on fences and the side of a house. That was reported to the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office, which is investigating.

The Texas Observer had reported the incident of the fliers found in McKinney. The report said the fliers had cautioned the recipients against contacting police, claiming that the unidentified group behind them is “watching every move” and has “members in law enforcement and government.” Immigrants from India who had reported about the fliers to NBCDFW.com said that they are“disturbed and confused about their future here.” McKinney police had then said they were taking the incident “very seriously.”
