jasoncanty01: daisura: worth noting: - It was a pack of 15 people driving cars/trucks decked out in confederate flags, banners, and US flags. All 15 are being brought to justice, and this is just the latest news on the whole debaucle.- They did this in a predominately black neighborhood. - The caravan passed a public park, and these two schmucks decided to take a detour over to a group of people having an outing there.- These people were a black family having a birthday party for their kids- The witness concensus of what they did when harassing the party was “yelling racial slurs and displaying a crowbar, a knife and either a rifle or a shotgun". - Threatening the lives of children likely earned some brownie points with the judge and lengthened their sentences.- Georgia has some strict laws regarding gang activity, which applied to a large group of armed individuals actively setting out to harass a community with very openly racist motivation.- On top of the sentence, these two are also banished from the county this incident occurred in. This means they’ll also have to sell or give up property they own.- I’m seeing a lot of people try to argue this is unjust because they have the right to ‘freedom of speech’, but I hope that’s just because these people defending it haven’t read any of the details, just these shitty “confederate flag incident” titles that don’t exactly explain someone leaned out of a truck with a large weapon and shouted terrifying things at children. This is not freedom of speech, it is domestic terrorism, and was labeled as such by the police. Inciting Terror, real terror, aiming weapons at people, driving threateningly, that is not your right to freely speak your mind. -- source link
