I think the issue with him burning the BLM flag was not that he burned a flag, but that the flag did not belong to him. It was removed from the exterior of a church and then burned. That's destruction of property and will get you the same charge regardless of what kind of flag it was.
I definitely agree there. The police state have specifically targeted right-leaning individuals for alleged crimes which BLM/antifa have committed numerous times without consequences.
Unlike the property destruction, he did not admit to a hate crime and this reporting indicates that at the time of writing no hate crime charges had been filed and would not be filed until today if at all. Do you have the link to the source you are using to see that hate crime charges were filed?
Obviously there is no such thing as a hate crime, so that's totally BS as well, along with him being specifically targeted.
But he did admit to a crime on video and said he would plead guilty. The narrative that he "only" burnt a flag is not true. He destroyed property and admitted to doing so.
He admitted to burning the flag. They threatened to charge him w/hate crime. Whether they will or won't, I don't know. I'm upset that that's even an option in this case. That's my beef.
I agree. I don't do the down vote thing and people deserve their opinion without being down voted. I just deport shills. I don't think he's one but, maybe others did.
Then burning the American Flag is a hate crime. AND, kneeling at the NATIONAL ANTHEM should be a hate crime. Fucking commies.

I get it. That’s a crime. Not one that cops would do a multi-state manhunt for, however. This was a political targeting.

The "hate crime" is the issue. Read the charges. Also, he didn't take the flag it was already taken when he came across it and not by him.
