CHICAGO -- (WGN) -- A Lincoln Square man says he woke up Sunday to find a sign in his front yard had been vandalized, and "anti-white" and other messages spray painted on the sidewalk in front of his home.
However, Jeff Zacharias said he's not anti-anything. In fact, quite the opposite.
"We are an openly gay couple, and I think it's important to be out and proud about a variety of things, and I think in our political climate it's even more important to show people that we won't be quiet," Zacharias said
The family fought back, posting their own signs saying “hate has no home here” before cleaning up the graffiti.
