and we still know nothing about the nooses that were hanging at the Capitol?

Thank you, Judge Keith Starrett. No one should have to suffer this kind of abuse and terrorism. Graham Williamson must be a really sick individual.

If only the feds would put that much effort into investigating real crimes.

But it's OK for armed black militants to intimidate white voters at a polling place?

Got it.

Burning a cross is stupid and moronic, but protected by the First Amendment. Snowflakes!

I mean...I'm tired enough just juggling my family, work, church, keeping my yard clean and maybe some physical exercise once or twice a week. A little time in a deer stand, duck blind or a dove field a half dozen times a year if I'm big time lucky. Who in the hell has time to think of, much less carry out, lots of these things?

What about the murder and burning of Cort Gatlin? That was big news and then all of the sudden, silence. Was there even a trial?

When will they start prosecuting flag burning? I'm permanently disabled from wounds I got fighting for that flag; where is my justice?

3:13. thank deceased justice Scalia for standing up FOR flag burning. he’s the one that made it “free speech”

Looks like the Kingfish cesspool has decided, cross burning is good and wholesome fun for the whole family.

It appears if you put the flag on a cross and set it on fire in a black neighborhood that you will be prosecuted. That make you feel any better? Asking for a Russian.

All of you racists acting alarmed about this conviction need to cool you man boobs. The African-American that was convicted for a church arson and Pro-Trump vandalism got sentenced to 10 years!

When the Supreme Court comes to its collective senses, they'll toss out this 'hate crime' bullshit.

@5:48 PM - amen.

@4:49 PM - that's your cross to bear.

2:16 - The Supreme Court held you can burn a cross on your property; you can't burn a cross on someone else's property.

"The African-American that was convicted for a church arson and Pro-Trump vandalism got sentenced to 10 years!"

That's because he actually committed a crime, destroyed property, defaced property that did not belong to him.

2:16 pm There is nothing in the Constitution that allows you to damage the property of others or take actions that threaten,injure or kill.

For the rest of you, the reality is that not all criminals are identified, caught and punished. They never have been in the history of mankind and never will be. So arguing that because one criminal got away that a criminal that didn't shouldn't be punished, is an argument for lawlessness. You are making a false equivalency which is convincing only to those who are of below average intelligence...unfortunately that is half of all humans.

As to those who are incensed over flag burning: Please be consistent. You should be also incensed by those who disrespect the flag by flying a flag that is damaged or faded or unlit at night. Damaged or faded flags should be destroyed by burning ( see flag code). If you own a flag, you can burn it in protest but you can't burn my flag. You may not like that form of protest, but it isn't illegal.

Frankly, I'm more offended by those who don't live by the principles and ideals our flag is supposed to represent, including respect for our laws and the commitment to change laws within the legal system.

Look up " convenient ethics". That describes those bemoaning this sentence as you would all cry " foul" if anyone damaged your property or left a threatening message for your family.

For you commenting on @2:16 PM, you have been reading the internet to much.

Protected speech is protected speech. Contrary to internet legends, YELLING "FIRE" in a theater is PROTECTED SPEECH.

Yes, do your own research.

But if people are hurt or injured, or property is damaged, there may be both civil and criminal liability.

But, the speech itself is still protected.

Burning a cross that you own is not illegal, and is protected speech.

The people were not charged with "burning a cross."

I live not far from where all this took place. If the background of the whole story was known no one would be taking either side here, this is more about a bunch of drug-addled idiots than any sort of racial animus, and in a perfect world all of them, including the "victim", would be in prison. Bad decisions can ruin your life.

Fact is there is a dis-appropriate number of blacks committing crimes than whites, but blacks rarely if ever comment “hate crimes”. Go figure.
