Two women have been indicted on hate crimes after they stole a seven-year-old boy’s Make America Great Again hat outside the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Delaware.
Delaware Police arrested Camryn Amy, 21, and Olivia Winslow, 21, on charges of robbery, conspiracy, endangering the welfare of a child. Amy also received two counts of offensive touching.
The women are accused of committing the crimes “for the purpose of interfering with the victim’s free exercise or enjoyment of any right, privilege or immunity protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, or committed said crime because the victim had exercised or enjoyed said right or rights,” according to the indictment.
“Violence in any form is unacceptable, but harming another person – let alone a child – because of the expression of their views betrays the principles on which our country was founded,” Delaware Attorney General Kathleen Jennings, a Democrat, said in a statement.
“Free speech, free assembly, and free expression are sacred, no matter whether we agree with the opinions expressed, and especially when we don’t,” she added.

For once I applaud a democrat...
Am I dreaming?
No surprise they would attack a child. They support a presidential candidate that molests children.

Can we get federal charges against them too? Huh, can we? Can we? Pretty please?
This could be a sort of a line in the sand type warning to protesters. KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF THE CHILDREN!
THROW THE BOOK AT THEM!!!
If there is a Federal issue here I would also urge prosecution.
Sounds to me like these two adults denied this 7-year-old his First Amendment rights.
They can keep the dirty F’ing hands off our old folks too.
I’m so sick of this... At some point they ARE going to pay.
They face some difficult times now. They will have to hire an attorney and defend themselves against the charges. If convicted they will be felons who targeted a child. There is also the possibility of a civil lawsuit. They will have to pay out a lot of money for that just in defense bills, not to mention a possible adverse verdict from a civil jury. Stupid hurts, and it can be ruinously expensive!
Some states, like California, have laws on the books which make it a crime to intimidate the elderly. For instance, if an elderly couple is having dinner, and an activist starts screaming at them and induces fear, the activist can be arrested. You point is a very good one. Keep your hands off the elderly too!
They believed all the Leftist lies.
President Trump should invite this brave young man and his family to the White House. Make the story even bigger.

Good. Prosecute every one of them that does such.
Potus sent the little guy a bunch of MAGA stuff including a signed hat!
Maybe it should be considered, especially in an election year when parents are already on the edge because of the closed schools. The President could remind people that the rioters would damage their cars, their homes, their workplaces and their places of worship. And now, they are targeting your children. I think it would be a kick in the gut and the left would have no defense for it.
Great! Thanks for the update!
Modern liberalism has become nothing but hate anyway, and expressions of it are increasingly criminal. It’s been a long time since I heard anything positive about themselves from ‘liberals’.
In other news a vandal got shot with paintballs by the owner of the house for urinating on the Trump sign.
