The bacon thing...
I’m no fan of islam, and even less of a fan of the very concept of hate crimes, but this was a really stupid thing to do without hiding your identity. Seriously.
And everybody knows that arguing that throwing a slab of bacon on the front steps of a mosque is no big deal because, after all, it’s just a bunch of garbage, is like saying burning the american flag is no big deal because, after all, it’s just a piece of cloth.
His message was obvious, and I would personally love to see islam outlawed in the US, but everybody knows the message he was sending.
So he definitely should have gotten six months!, and add five years for stupidity. But 15 is ludicrous.
That’s no crime. More of a misdemeanor. But now the prosecutors here have created blasphemy law in Florida, which is unconstitutional.
