LEWISTON, Maine --Police are investigating as a possible hate crime an incident in which a ham steak was placed in a bag on a lunch table where a group of Somali students were sitting.
(Excerpt) Read more at boston.com ...
Maybe the kid saw a Sally Struthers video on starving kids in Africa and just wanted to help.
Putting down a hamsteak, in a bag, on a table is now a hate crime.
You won’t get your pudding if you don’t eat your meat.
When hams are outlawed only outlaws will have hams....
LOL. We need the Southpark clip of Starvin Marvin.
I guess now we’ll finally find out if the old saying that you can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich is true!
Sounds like another drive-by porking.
Second Degree Boaring?
Horrors!!!! The dreaded rogue ham sandwich! Spare no expense in investigating this calamity!
This is beyond the pale.
You can’t have a hate crime without first having a CRIME! There is no crime here - please show me the law that prohibits the placement of ham on tables.
And being offended? Sorry - not a crime. Too bad, so sad. Deal with it.
Which is not to say “hate crimes” are actually valid when an actual crime is involved...

I think this needs the full version the Globe did not give the story justice.

Mark my word we are going to hear an announcement soon no Pork/ham/pepperoni/Italian sausages i.e., any pork product can be eaten in school’s.
We can thank Congress and the ACLU for this.........
What ever happened to saying kids were only playing "pranks" on someone when something like this happened?
Oh yes, I remember, we didn't have the Muslim whiners in America then........
Wake up America!!!!
Too funny.
