Woman accused of tossing fruit at gays (charged with hate crime)
San Francisco Examiner ^ | 03/06/07 | Brian Foley

A Pacifica woman was arrested Sunday on suspicion of a hate crime for allegedly throwing fruit and vegetables at a gay couple while riding in a van, police said Monday.

Tiffany Adler, 20, who works at a grocery store, was a passenger in a van in Pacifica on Sunday when she spotted a gay couple who frequent the store, according to police.

As the van drove by around 7:50 p.m. on the 500 block of Esplanade Drive, she allegedly rolled down the window and threw apples and vegetables at them, police said. Later, the van turned around and approached the couple again as she allegedly yelled the word “faggot” at them.

The gender of the couple was not immediately known.

At least some of what was thrown appears to have hit the couple, according to the police report.

Adler, the only person arrested, was booked on suspicion of misdemeanor hate crime and misdemeanor battery and released.

“Her statement was that she wasn’t aware that they were gay,” police Sgt. Jim Tasa said. “She thought they were people that she had a prior conflict with.”

A court date has been set for April 13.

Now it's throwing fruit.

Soon it'll be showing fruit.

Then it'll be possession of fruit with intent.

In time the fag... um, I mean John Edwardses will be demanding fruit bearing trees be cut down for fear of offense.

Where will it end? WHERE WILL IT END!?

Throwing fruit at sodomites is more criminal than throwing fruit at non-sodomites because...

Okay, I give up. Help me out here.

Clearly she thought this was a poverty stricken couple or she would not have given them fruit and vegetables then offered them English pork meatballs.

No good deed goes unpunished...

Liberals can throw pies at conservatives but not the other way around?

"The gender of the couple was not immediately known." Awaiting DNA results I guess.

Apparently you are a subject of patriarchical brainwashing! Don't you realize that gender is a societial construct, not something you are born with? Of course, your biological sex is something you are born with, but there is a broad spectrum of them, not just a binary "male" or "female" selection. Off to the re-education camp university gender in culture course for you!

Want to be the van was marked with the store's name too?

I'm not a fan of "Hate Crimes" but this kind of stupidity should be a capital offense. We don't need her poluting the gene pool.

I thought "faggots" were guy queers and girl queers were "dykes" or "lesbos"?

Isn't hate and hate speech protected by the First Amendment?

Funny how throwing fruit and cursing out someone is enough to get you arrested for a "hate crime", but cursing out your own country, committing blatant treason, supplying the enemy with aid on a regular basis is "freedom of speech".

How much gays and liberals from San Fran feel offended by the "f****t" word, they should consider I feel a billion times more offended by what they have done and continue to do every single day since 911.

The search for a motive in the incident proved fruitless.
