So this guy stole an alphabet flag from a church and torched it. So he was sentenced to 16 years in prison for it. If the flag was different colors, it would be Constitutionally protected free speech. Unreal. Hate is not a crime.


What? If he owned the flag it would have been protected free speech. Stealing and burning other peoples stuff is never protected free speech no matter what flag you burn.

"Adolfo Martinez, 30, of Ames, was found guilty last month of third-degree arson in violation of individual rights — hate crime, third-degree harassment, and reckless use of fire as a habitual offender. "

15 of those years were for a "hate" crime that came in the form of protected speech.

If it was a confederate flag, he would have gotten an interview on CNN and a book deal.

A vegan couple who fed their children only raw fruits and vegetables have been charged with murder after their son allegedly died of starvation.
Code

The Florida couple, Ryan Patrick O'Leary, 30, and Sheila O'Leary, 35, told police they only fed their children on a diet of raw fruit and vegetables. On Wednesday, a Lee County Grand Jury indicted the couple.

They are charged with first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse, aggravated manslaughter, child abuse, and two counts of child neglect after their 18-month-old son starved to death, according to authorities.

According to a Cape Coral police report, the child weighed only 17 pounds (8 kilograms), which experts say is in line with what a seven-month-old should weigh.


this is like an anti-vaxxer tragedy but with food

Was the cause of death starvation, or complications based on lack of nutrients like illness, etc.
