...flyers with messages such as “We have to protect our white children” and “It’s okay to be white,” WHIO TV 7 reported.
*GASP*
“Even though it was random, and there was no certain groups targeted, it didn’t matter who was in the house; everybody got the same thing,” said Streck, “but it definitely is one of those things that is considered hate speech.”
What a useless cuck. Also, I like how it's completely untargeted, but they want to make it a hate crime.
According to Streck, distributing flyers is typically not a criminal offense. Therefore, he said, it can be challenging to pursue criminal charges when someone is simply disseminating material to the general public.
Then don't fucking pursue criminal charges for speech, you unamerican traitor.
Also, reminder, this type of flyer distribution is what the Florida antisemitism-focused law bans, the one that DeSantis went to Israel to sign.
The sheriff pointed out that if authorities had suspects, they could be charged with a minor infraction, like littering. He said menacing or more severe charges could be added if the suspects admitted there was malicious intent.
Deputies have reportedly been knocking on doors, searching for Ring doorbell surveillance or video footage to find car license plates or descriptions of a suspect.
Streck stated that police, in collaboration with the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office, would pursue all criminal charges possible if there was evidence of a crime.
The whole article is just completely open authoritarian nonsense.
“It’s just sickening,” he added, WHIO reported, “that people were out throwing these around the neighborhoods.”
It absolutely is sickening, but not in the way this - as previously mentioned - traitorous cuck believes. His behavior is sickening.
Distributing flyers isn't normally a criminal offense because distributing flyers is explicitly protected by the first amendment, even if it were hate speech, because there is no hate speech exception to the constitution. That is not a loophole, it is intentional.
And yeah, the Sherriff is showing another violation of the 1st Amendment: selective prosecution based on political expression. It's littering if you use flyers the cops don't like.
