For starters, it IS infuriating. Double standard, but completely predictable.

However, Our Side (and there ARE very clear sides for all to see) needs to continue to take the High Road.

Until the REAL shooting starts, that is. ;)

So, let me make sure I have this right: deface and destroy monuments is no problem. Deface a BLM painting on a public street is a hate crime.

Yep, makes complete sense /s

“We must address the root and byproduct of systemic racism in our country,” the government prosecutor said as she announced that she was prosecuting a couple for a “hate crime” for daring to cover up “Black Lives Matter” graffiti.

I have to say, for a country so experienced in “systemic racism,” we really suck at it.

Which is what they are counting on.

Perhaps.

according to the article BLM had paid for a permit to place that one the street. ... Hate to say it, but these citizens messed up.

ALL acts by conservatives will be considered hate crimes. Notice that the vast majority of these charges come from DA’s that were installed by Soros’ interests. Soros did the same thing with states’ Secretaries of State. Soros knows how to play the long game.

So, defacing a BLM mural is a hate crime.
What is defacing a statue/flag/police car/etc?
Either we make these vermin regret their actions or we assume the Obama position and let them do us.
Period.

A misdemeanor “hate crime”?!
Is that akin to a, ‘don’t much care for it’ crime? An ambivalence crime?

No hate crime here. Definitely not...

If the perps are caught, they'll be freed quickly either b/c "no cash bail" or bailed out by celebrity money.

If a muscle car “peels out” burning rubber on the “street mural” is that also a hate crime or just reckless driving?

The civil rights charge will not hold up in court.

That is certain.

The other two charges are shaky, at best.

But both will likely lose their jobs and home.

The vindictive hate on the left is a sign of things to come.

Be ready.

Or if someone simply, and carelessly, decides to transport 10 gallons of black concrete paint in the back of a trailer and happens to spill that paint on the ‘mural’.
