WILLMAR, Minn. — The Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations wants a Willmar man charged with a hate crime after an incident at a farmer's market last weekend.

Willmar police were called to the farmer's market about 11 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 12, on a report that an individual had allegedly been cursing at a young adult male Somali-American selling vegetables at a stand.

According to law enforcement reports, he then threw a pig's foot at the Somali.

The Willmar Police Department identified the man as Joseph Fernkes, 61, of Willmar.

CAIR-MN now wants Fernkes charged with a hate crime.

"If you curse a person's faith and then throw an object clearly designed to offend and intimidate, you should be charged with a hate crime," said CAIR-MN Civil Rights Director Amir Malik, in a press release.

...

The CAIR-MN release said Fernkes cursed Islam's Prophet Muhammad and used anti-Muslim slurs. Further, people often use pig or pork products to offend Muslims, who do not consume those products.

This is just the sort of thing that I thought of when the Hate Crimes Law was first proposed.

NO one what injured and no property was damaged in this incident, therefore no crime was committed.

Hate crime law no more than a legal way for someone to punish an enemy of the Democrat Party.

It is extremely rare to see a member of a protected group (Democrat constituent group) charged with a hate crime.

Hate crime law is a tool for silencing conservatives.

Sounds more like littering than a hate crime.

Hey CAIR. I’m a Christian. Your holy book says I need to be destroyed. I accuse it of hate speech and you need to destroy all copies.

Oh... it’s different when you do it?

Sure. And when m*slims kill out of hate, that’s not prosecuted as a hate crime.

When a human says that m*slims kill and rape, that human is thrown in jail.

Why would someone defile a perfectly fine pig’s foot like that?

Just had to join in the hysteria, didn't they. Jewish people and Seventh Day Adventists don't consume port either.
