Apparently, intimidation is now a crime so long as you do it with racial overtones... and so Jeremiah Munsen from Alexandria, La. gets to spend four months in prison for driving around a civil rights rally with a noose tied to his truck.
Tacky? Sure.
Racist? Probably.
Juvenile? Oh yes.
Criminal? Apparently so...
This is another blow to the principle of free speech and I wonder how long until we reach European standards and start prosecuting anyone who says anything that is deemed racially insensitive? I imagine not long...
