CHICAGO - The Chicago man shown in a viral video berating a woman for wearing a Puerto Rican flag T-shirt has been charged with a felony hate crime.

"After a review of the case, we approved felony hate crimes charges," said Robert Foley, spokesman for the Cook County State's Attorney's Office.

Foley said Timothy Trybus faces two counts of felony hate crime, which are enhancements on the charges of misdemeanor assault and misdemeanor disorderly conduct he was previously charged with.

Haven't heard about the case. Was he just yelling at someone? Do you approve of these charges?

Figures you support criminal charges for yelling at someone. Congrats on turning the law on its head in the name of political correctness. Modern day Puritans.

Hell no, if all he was doing was yelling at her. He had already been charged with misdemeanor assault, so maybe there's more. IDK

Yet no hate crime charges against the black woman who assaulted a 92 year old Mexican man and told him to "go back to his country".

Explain why one is being charged and the other isn't, and why you don't give a shite that the black woman isn't!

I'll hang up and listen.

Felony hate crimes for simply telling her she’s a dumb arse in a voice loud enough for everyone to hear? So is this the way the new world works? No dissenting opinions? Make it a felony to be an a-hole? Try to legislate that everyone get along and love each other? Got some news for you, the only groups of human beings that have EVER gotten along with each, in the long arse history of human beings, are the smaller homogenous groups. The minute you start adding outsiders to those groups, the hate begins.

You’re chasing a pipe dream.

If he didn't touch her or threaten to hurt her, this is insane.

You’ll post something as ridiculous as this and then turn right around to voice your support for the harassment of republicans, trump supporters, and their family. You are the definition of a useful idiot hack. I can’t think of a single purpose you serve as a voting citizen of this country.

I've seen the video and it's pretty deplorable.

He was getting pretty close to her and I legit believe that she didn't feel safe

Dude is a moron

Same reason no one gets charged with felony hate crimes for berating a white man wearing the confederate flag...
