Typical leftists, "Freedom of Speech only applies to us and our causes".

Charged with a misdemeanor and now a CIVIL RIGHT HERO with street cred. Both are already out on bond.

Fair enough. They are innocent until proven guilty.

She is a professional and needs to be punished as such if found guilty. I suppose photographic evidence may be questionable and subject to tampering. She is no Rosa Parks nor anything remotely approaching.

I rode on buses as a child with blacks that had to sit in the back of the bus. I read signs on water fountains that said whites only. I asked my mother why couldn't I sit in the back of the bus. I saw the looks on their faces. I balked at drinking from a fountain that blacks couldn't drink from because certainly something must be wrong with the water.

I sat in the school classroom with the first black person that entered our school system. Sat right next to him. I still know his name. We got along just fine and never had a single issue.

This is not rocket science. Small children get it. The reality of the transition is loooooooooooooooog gone except for anyone that wants to try to relive or rewrite history.

Miss rent-a-dread 'Bree' is a complete fake. She may be incredibly talented as a musician. She is no Rasta. She is no slave. She is no model citizen. She is certainly no Rosa Parks although in this day and age I might expect someone to attempt to steal that earned dignity as well.

I do appreciate her willingness to make a name or rather carve out a place for herself in the creative community as her musical / performance arts profession is a bit of a dog eat dog world. One must be original, keep up with the Kardashians, and impress Jay Z...... seriously... that is no easy feat and that is the world she lives in via her profession outside of political activism.

However, as smart and creative as she is, she chose to commit a crime, outside her "house" as Obama says (NC resident in SC), and at a time when everyone knew the issue was already being resolved.

I don't know what the hell whitebread was thinking.. what was he doing? Village People or something? Got his hat and his neon vest.... nice. The gay pride parade was in London dude. I hope he enjoys his equal sentence.

She's a few fries short of a happy meal. Hopefully, William S. Hall Psychiatric Hospital was HER next stop...

I bet Prius steering wheels are soaking wet from the tears of middle aged white liberal women over this monumental, triumphant time in history.

I believe all this shit (racism, Bruce the tranny Jenner, confederate flag, Kardashians, gay marriage) are just distractions to keep the sheep focused on trivial issues while Obola and his minions finish destroying the country. I'm tempted to paint my truck like the General Lee just to piss off the progressives.

“There’s an acceptance now of the idea that the threat from jihadi terrorism in the United States has been overblown,” Dr. Horgan said. “And there’s a belief that the threat of right-wing, antigovernment violence has been underestimated.”

Counting terrorism cases is a subjective enterprise, relying on shifting definitions and judgment calls.

You don't honestly think with crap like this being published, nothing is going to happen?

If it makes you guys feel any better, four black churches were torched last week.

(Investigation has found arson to be the cause in three of the fires, the fourth is still under investigation.)

No, I hate it, really the thing we don't need is further division.
I'm afraid that's part of the recipe though.

I would expect a lot more of this in the future. The extremists on both sides were able to hold it together up until now will be acting out more regularly.

This sort of infighting and "tit for tat" fuels and agenda. If you can't see where it is going, look a bit closer.
When your outrage against a symbols equals the right to deface public property the push back against actions like these breed violence. Violence Breeds civil unrest and furthers the feelings of racial division and hate.
Any of the folks who might have been convinced they need to vote to get back to the more conservative values are pretty much back in the progressive fold after seeing their churches burn.
This sort of behavior will lead to further violence.
