Indiana couple drove boys with Trump flags off road: police

 A northwestern Indiana couple allegedly used a car to force two teenage boys off a road, angered that the twin brothers were riding bicycles adorned with flags supporting President Donald Trump, before ripping one of the sibling's flag from his bike, police said Friday.

Hobart police said Snapchat videos helped officers secure charges against Kyren Gregory Perry-Jones, 23, and Cailyn Marie Smith, 18, in connection with a July 22 incident.

Police Capt. James Gonzales said the Hobart couple are accused of driving in their car, running the 14-year-old boys off of the road, and making threats toward them.

According to a probable cause affidavit, the boys told officers that a vehicle with a man driving and woman passenger followed them before the male driver pulled up nearby and asked one of the boys “if they were Trump supporters” - to which the boy replied that they were.

The driver then swerved at the boys, forcing them onto roadside grass to avoid being struck, according to the affidavit. The driver followed the boys before exiting the car and tearing off the flag from one of the brother's bikes, the affidavit states.

The driver dropped the flag, which was affixed to the bike with fishing pole, ran back to his car and drove off, “but not before running the flag over,” it states.

That means he was 12 1/2 years old when the war ended. Must have been a very young enlistee.

Both Perry-Jones and Smith have been charged with two felony counts of intimidation and criminal recklessnes. They were also charged with one count each of theft and criminal mischief, both of which are misdemeanors.

I don't see attempted murder there. This was attempted murder.

Your complaint is that Barr doesn’t act like Holder?

If your heroes are criminals join the left.

Has ANY of the passengers in the democrat clown car condemned violence by their unhinged supporters? I’m guessing that none of them have even been asked for comment.

After the Veritas videos of Bernie supporters bragging about the violence they wanted to commit a reporter called the Bernie campaign for comment. The Bernie staffers threatened to call the police on the reporter.

Math doesn’t come close to adding up. More likely to be a Vietnam vet than a WWII vet.

Try again.

My first thought was the same as yours. But there were some mighty young Hitler Youth fighting in the last defense of the Fatherland.

So if he was defending Berlin, the numbers might add up.

Do you have his age right? He would have been 12 or 13 when WWII ended.

Well, he could have possibly gotten into the last half of the Korean. I have a neighbor: an 87 yr old former Army helo pilot. He was being trained for Korea when the armistice stopped the fighting. He was still in during Vietnam. Had his huey shot out from under him. Low enough for he and his crew to survive a hard landing.

If they have Bernie flags, I think you get to take one of the bikes.

I fear it will only get worse for the rest of 2020. People will be killed for showing support for Trump. I fear that the bombing of polling places and Republican HQs will start soon. Trump better take it easy—they will try to take him out with a bullet or bomb. Their hate has been ginned up to a white hot level. Weak minded people now have been told for years he is a new Hitler. Ask yourself, If you believed the lie that Trump was a new Hitler who was about to kill millions -if you believed it in your heart—wouldn’t you want to stop him? This is the result of Hate and 24/7 brow beat news.
