Surly this story is written to get clicks and they were arrested for another reason not stated in the article. How can anyone get arrested anywhere for using any type of slur or word? Disturbing the peace? Maybe but that’s for disturbing the peace. Not what was used or said to disturb it? Hate crime? What crime was committed? Saying a Word isn’t a crime and there are no laws on the books. How is one booked for a saying a word? Hate crime? Is that a stretch by someone with wishful thinking? Again, did these kids get arrested for simply saying a word on film?? What’s that charge exactly?

Have you been in a coma the last 2 years?

These are exactly the issues we have been saying are coming down the pipe and we were told to keep these topics off of the OT because we were conspiracy theorists.
