NEW YORK (AP) _ A 23-year-old man was arrested Friday on hate-crime charges after he threw a Quran in a toilet at Pace University on two separate occasions, police said. Stanislav Shmulevich of Brooklyn was arrested on charges of criminal mischief and aggravated harassment, both hate crimes, police said.
It was unclear if he was a student at the school. A message left at the Shmulevich home was not immediately returned. The Islamic holy book was found in a toilet at Pace's lower Manhattan campus by a teacher on Oct. 13. A student discovered another book in a toilet on Nov. 21, police said. Muslim activists had called on Pace University to crack down on hate crimes after the incidents. As a result, the university said it would offer sensitivity training to its students.

I suppose they’d be telling Christians angry at another Piss Christ to piss off and quit violating their freedom to speech....
Maybe he just hated bad literature.
Wonder when they’ll start arresting those who throw bibles out - oh wait they’re probably banned from campus (separation of church and state y’know).... /sarc
This can’t be real.
I can’t believe that is a crime!
What an awful, unforgivable thing to do. To the toilet.
What about the gay guy who burned the Koran because it contained ‘hate speech’. Whose at fault? The Koran for containing what this individual considers hate speech or the gay guy burning the Koran?
Are the people who desecrate Bibles brought up on the same charges?
You can burn the flag, but ...
Maybe littering but that's it.
Putting the cross in a Jar of piss is "art";
Yet someone expressing their "freedom of speech" in regards to the book of hate, murder, racism, rape, thievery that calls for the elimination of all others is called a hate crime? WTF is wrong with this country? If this doesn't spark a revolt, this country is really in deep trouble.
Yep. You got it. This country really is in deep trouble.
no jokin around friend, ya best get "ready."
I can buy a koran, but I'm not free to dispose of it as I see fit.

I can see it as a crime if its somebody else’s book.
I once saw a communist take an American flag from a skin head and set it on fire.
Before it was over he was beat up by the skin heads, beat up again by the cops and arrested for theft, arson and resisting arrest.
if he had brought his own flag it might have gone differently.
The FBI showed up when a guy in Chattanooga shot a hole in a Koran and showed the video on the web...
A mosque in Chatt was given warn fuzzies...
Of course it’s a crime. He could have plugged up the toilet.
This is a job for Theodore Streleski.
The liberal are slowly turning this country into a marxist socialist big brother state.
