• How was the husband’s testimony not suggestive of a hate crime? It’s like suggesting the guy who firebombed people in Boulder Colorado last week wasn’t committing a hate crime.

      Afaik the Colorado thing wasn’t a hate crime, it was an act of terrorism. It was motivated by political cause (antizionism), not identity (Jewishness).

    • Not to mention there are likely records of past incidents where they were threatened. Cops are now pretending like they weren’t aware of the hate crime issue before he was even dead.
