Why is this not a hate crime ? They wish to make owning or flying a confederate flag a hate crime but when a gang of kids ( one color or another ) terrorize a Mother and 2 children, shattering glass all over the kids it is just a misdemeanor :rolleyes: Heck forget the flag, why are a group (or dozens) as the Mother has described involved, and only 2 arrested? This Country needs to make the law the law for all, no more of this trash where a hate crime can only be applied to one color.
This has all the characteristics of what officials would call a “hate crime.” Using racial or “homophobic” slurs directed at the victim during the commission of a crime is usually all the evidence needed to make such a crime a “hate crime.”
But officials are so reluctant to call out incidents such as this one, which happened in Chicago to a white mother of two, because the perpetrators were black. The mob was banging on her car, denting and shaking it. They shattered the back window, causing shards of glass to be scattered over the woman’s two kids in the back. They were yelling racial slurs at her, and telling her she doesn’t belong in their neighborhood because she’s white.
Yet, the incident remains little more than a local story. Even though dozens of kids were involved, only two got arrested on misdemeanor charges. I know the question has become cliché, but it bears repeating over and over again: If the races were reversed, would we ever hear the end of this story? Of course not. And it would unquestionably be a hate crime. ABC 7 Chicago reported (http://abc7chicago.com/news/abc7-exclusive-woman-allegedly-attacked-by-group-near-uofc-campus/841913/):
