    How is burning a political billboard a hate crime unless there was other motivation present? Sounds like MDOP, arson and malicious burning charges to me.

    I'm against the whole concept of thought hate crime but what goes around comes around for the liberals who invented it.

    Only the BALTIMORE SUN, left wing paper as it is, with a left wing editorial staff, would spent so much "print" defending 2 anti-Trump/Conservative Political Left wing vandals with nothing better to do then damage someone's property. This type of malicious "Hate" crime has got to stop. And the "stopping" starts with the Head of the Democratic Party in Maryland. The sign is an expression of one's First Amendment rights. If it were I, I'd throw the book at the two guilty parties.

    These are sad times that we live in. Can't even express your political view without it causing some sort of violent act.

    The term "hate crime" is absurd.

    That said, of course, the Sun doesn't think these misguided yutes should be charged with a hate crime because they're not white men their actions may not fit the legal definition of a "hate crime."

    http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/opinion/editorial/bs-ed-hate-crime-trump-20170419-story.html

    What I find interesting is this quote from the article: "The only way to make any sense of this charge is to assume that anyone who is a minority (as both Ms. Shuford and Ms. Perry are) who dislikes President Trump must then automatically hate white people and Christians."

    This comment coming from the same people who act as if every person who doesn't/didn't like Barack Obama must automatically hate all black people and are racists.

    As a slightly off topic question, you always hear that if someone voted against Obama just because he is black, then that person is racist. Well, if someone were to vote FOR Obama just because he is black, would that not be racist as well?

    (Purely rhetorical question because we all know what the "official" answer would be.)
