Man arrested for front yard sign - “N----- lives don’t matter. Got rope?”

[Mudda]

Where do you live that rope is illegal?

Who said I do?

You dope brah! You can ignore the exactly last post that you made.

Or I could laugh at this one you just made.

So what up? You don't understand your own post now? Well, ok, maybe not just "now".

The sky is up. Of course I understand my own post. Its obvious my post was too difficult for you to grasp.

Oh never mind, and for future reference, a noose is made out of rope.

. It was the purposeful targeting of a specific person, his neighbor, that brought him his legal problems. Many states have terroristic threat laws that disallow certain kinds of speech.

HUH? Where did the sign mention a specific person??

The article from the OP states that witnesses testified at his first trial that the display was erected in response to a dispute with his neighbor, who is black. The jury was convinced the sign and rope were meant to address the neighbor.

how do they know it was "in response to" ANything?...who gets to determine intent or motive?
absolute bs...

In a criminal case where testimony and evidence is presented the jury decides. That is how it works here in America.
