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.
Throwing fruit at the queer freaks is a crime punishable to the fullest extent of a whacko liberal law. However, it's perfectly ok to spit on our soldiers.
We must put and end to this insane nonsense.
Please not before dinner. Dessert...fudge for everyone.
but what did they do with the cherries ?
Homosexual money is not funny money: it is used to buy hate speech and hate crime legislation.
Hate crime? TRhat's just peachy! What next?
But if they drag their knuckles while riding in a van, you would have to calculate the distance from the lower window gasket to the road, which on most vans would be approximately 4 1/2 feet. Did these people in fact have five-foot arms? I just want to maintain accuracy in media here on FR.
Holy Jeez, tell me that is a photoshopped chest. No way can a woman be that flat. I`m assuming it is a woman by the small hands and waist? I guess this chest is from all the Granola eating? And my wife wanted to go veggie a few times... I told her if she ever did I would sacrifice 20 Bambi fawns in her honor.
I'll bet it wasn't.
Technically, she threw fruits AND vegetables at them. For some unknown reason this paper ONLY choose to put the work "fruit" in the headline. Bias against gays by the paper???
I'll bet this includes the couple, as well.....
It won't be long before people *alluding* to or *thinking* the 'f' word will be arrested for 'hate crimes'.
In the same way the unabridged right to bear arms is protected by the Second Amendment.
Touche!
Anyhow, just ignore me and carry on, party of Reagan!
Hey, maybe we should just add the "Freedom to Throw Things at Faggots" plank for '08?
That's gotta be right in keeping with our traditions...
I'm sure most of us would agree that no one should throw anything at anybody.
The many jokes and double entendres you are reading here reflect that fact that most of us see rank hypocrisy, here. In other words, had the produce been thrown at me while I was driving my little kids down the road, no one would have been charged with a "hate crime." This "hate crime" stuff is beyond idiotic.
Maybe she thought they were hungry and wanted to give them some food?
A drive-by fruiting?
At least she did not toss salad at them.
These so called crimes are ridiculous.
The media has lost its way.
Actually, it has been hijacked by a bunch of salad tossers around the Country.
