Sounds like he had a lousy lawyer.

Better Call Saul for the appeal process
Maybe Denny Crane will assist him all the way to the SC.
Ridiculous...
Excessive punishment is not unconstitutional in Iowa? Not when you violate political correctness I guess.
“”My wife told me a woman who ignored a school bus stop sign plowed into three children (from the same family), killing them, and got four years.””
That was a couple of years ago and I’ve often wondered what happened to the story. I can’t even remember the state where it happened - Ohio maybe? There were pictures of the road, an intersection, curves in the road, the bus stop - horrible story. I guess I can google it to get up to date.
Can’t get anymore up to date than this with today’s date:

He broke laws on theft of property and vandalism, didn’t he?
Join what side? What are you talking about?
More like a queer judge.
They should put the judge in jail for twice as long.
Yeah. I was going to say that he should have stuck to burning American flags and effigies of Trump.
The Stalinists are sending a message to flyover country.
We will be punished severely if we dont approve of homosexuality.
Since when are our beliefs a crime.
OK. Make the guy pay for damages but 15/18 years.
Thats real hate!!!
Since when does burning a bit of cloth justify a charge of arson, let alone a hate crime of arson?
If only the flag was damaged, then apparently he was not trying to burn down the church.
It sounds like this guy was guilty of a minor crime -- he did damage someone else's piece of cloth -- but the sentence is so far over the top that I thought it had to be fake news. Apparently it really happened.
I hope he can afford to appeal, or that he is pardoned by the state governor.
Let’s stop pretending that there is freedom in this country. It’s going down the toilet.
Anyone caught burning our Flag on American soil should be shot on sight.
“The Stalinists are sending a message to flyover country.”
Exactly how I see it. If the roles were reversed, ACLU lawyers would be lined up down the block to defend the guy.
Meanwhile in my city a deranged woman attacks our giant Trump 2020 banner at an impeachment rally and nothing but crickets.....

In the gulag?
In the gulag?
Hey, hey, I don’t support her.
She is my cousin.
It should be an ordinance violation that you pay a fine for.
Doesnt sound like a free country to me.
