Burning a flag is not arson, period. Perhaps you could consider it vandalism, destruction of property, or theft.

Careful on that slippery slope there... you look a little unsteady.

Speak as slow as you like, chief. A piece of cloth was stolen and destroyed and the punishment was sixteen years. That's bullshit.

But Antifa does bodily harm to people and gets 1 to 3 years or probation. This is BS.

i think you can burn an American flag without it being considered hate speech...it would be covered by 'freedom of speech" ...so how is this flag burning different???

That seems excessive and is probably unconstitutional.

Have you figured out that leftists have infiltrated and run the department of justice? A conservative can not start a club in law school and not get thrown out of Law School in Austin TX. - - - - Do you understand that these people are not elected and that Voter Fraud and total media domination over an enslaved poverty class has elected them?

" enslaved poverty class has elected them"...found this gem today, backs up your point...even if this deals with homelessness, it tilts towards a huge voting poverty class too

" Almost half (47 percent) of all unsheltered homeless people in the United States are found in California, about four times as high as their share of the overall United States population"

If you're doing stupid shit after 2 felonies then I gotta lean with the laws on this one. I don't know what the first 2 were but holy shit. 2 FELONIES and you still do shit like that? You better either know the law like OJ's lawyer or behave until you can get some shit knocked off your record.

Thank you, that's my concern as well. Extreme sentencing sells to the insecure public because it promises a "law and order society" but eventually delivers tyranny instead.

This is bullshit and excessive no matter what his prior acts were. This is politically motivated and the punishment doesn't fit the crime.
