Painting right wing graffiti over left wing graffiti ("mural") is a hate crime? It wasn't me, but I do hate lifelong communists. Reminds me of the "crime" of painting over the Black Lives Matter graffiti ("mural") that was painted on the street in front of the Trump Tower in New York City, just to annoy Trump.

To what “protected category” does Bernie Sanders belong? Senators?

More like a LOVE crime.
Bernie has an ugly mug.
Pepe arguably looks better.

Disagreeing with the Left is now “hate”.

“Hateful meme”.
Anything conservatives do or use is twisted into a “hateful meme”.
What is hateful about Pepe?
What is hateful about the old OK sign? 👌

The guy who attacked Sen. Rand Paul wasn’t charged for a hate crime and the Senator will suffer from that attack for the rest of his life! Democrats are the only folks allowed to claim “hate” crimes! Bunch of leftist thugs!

Instead of Pepe the frog, why didn’t someone paint a hammer and sickle next to his mural?

Of course it’s a hate crime. Do not disrespect a party member.

I thought Bernie was and therefore, unable to be discriminated against. Who moved the goalposts again?

Has there ever been a case where Trump’s mural or any painting was defaced?
To: karpov
Who vandalizes the vandalism?
Cops were called to the site Saturday by one of the artists involved who felt the vandalism might be “motivated by hate or bias of political or religious affiliation,”
So all of those statues destroyed, buildings burned, Trump signs stolen and Trump supporters assaulted are hate crimes? No? Why not? Because Orangemanbad!

Oh that damn “hate has no home here” self-righteous crap.
And BTW, how is it this mural was authorized on public structures in public view? Obviously it must be for them to be able to complain and restore the junk.

The problem for hate crimes is that the prosecution must show that the person who commits the crime is thinking hatefully. My solution is that if something is a crime then it’s a crime. If it’s not a crime, then it isn’t.
Hate crimes are about political virtue signaling.

Good thing that Murderers aren’t motivated by Hate. I imagine the Penalty for hating someone you Murdered is much worse that the Penalty for Murdering someone you liked.
The Thought Police are everywhere.
