Yes, if they took a ugly red gimme cap off someone else’s head and burned it or pissed on it or destroyed it in some other way, they absolutely need to be punished.

If, however, they bought the ugly red gimme And then burned it, no, that is protected speech.

This was a horrible sentence and hate crimes shouldn’t be legal to begin with, but he likely pissed off the jury with his comments to the media after he was out on bail.


this x1000.

His comments won't be seen well int he eyes of jurors or a judge.

Not to mention it's theft and destruction of property to top off the bogus hate crime charges. He needs mental help, not 16 years in prison.

16 years is the kind of shite you get for burning someone's house down
Agreed.

The “hate crime“ enhancements are ridiculous. In my view, they are also unconstitutional.

So I cant burn a Russian flag or an Iranian flag?


Man you're a moron. I mean if you actually own the flag itself.

You can't steal someone else's flag and burn it. That's theft and destruction of someone else's property.

Or perhaps we should recognize that the sentencing in this case is stupid and NOT want that type of idiocy applied broadly elsewhere.

Is it possible for you to say something in this thread that isn't completely stupid?

Deport him to where?

You mean exile him?

Calm down little girl. What he did was petty larceny. Let the punishment fit the crime.

Sure he hurt your fee fees but that is on you.

Stop being ridiculous. Someone (you?) asked 'can I not burn a flag?' and we simply said you can burn YOUR flag. You cannot burn MINE. frick "hate crimes"Succinct and accurate. I cannot help wondering what are these people actually do not grasp this simple concept, or whether they are being intentionally obtuse.





No one said it was ok to burn someone else's flag, retard. People are saying it's not even remotely acceptable to give someone 16 years in jail for it. That's more than you'd get for raping someone.

Please allow me to explain New Law to you.

Burning US flag: constitutionally protected speech of a political nature

Burning Gay Pride flag: despicable terroristic act of Nazi hate that threatens US national security and emboldens white supremacy and the "Bring Back Slavery" GOP Movement.

Thats ridiculous and the punishment doesn’t fit the crime.

Imo that’s petty theft and destruction of property. 6 months to a year sounds about right, serve 3-6 and get parole on good behavior

I thought burning flags was a good thing . Or is it only cool to burn the US flag and not others? It says the guy was also charged with reckless use of a firearm.

and, as usual, you are being disingenuous.

Not every post replies to or addresses every single topic addressed in the thread.

In multiple posts, I have said that I disagree with “hate crime“ enhancements, etc. In other posts, however, I simply replied to a silly point made by one poster or another.

You always seem to ignore the former, and address the latter.

let me be clear. I am not going to be including 17 different caveats in every post I made, so that you can feel that every post addresses every point. I do not expected of you, and it is fricking ridiculous for you to expected of me.

So in Dallas and other places we have bought and paid for Soros DAs saying you can steal anything so long as it is less than $750 BUT if you burn somebody's $20 flag and offend the wrong people you get 16 years.

and people here defend it.

another load of horse shite, wish there was some way to buy horse shite futures
