University of Connecticut Police arrested Monday two men who were allegedly seen in a viral video reciting a racial slur.
Men Arrested For Speech in Connecticut
Oh they aren't taking your freedom gawd you leftist are the dumbest fks on the planet.

If it's already a crime to harass people or cause a "disruption or breach of the peace" then why the need to add specifics of content like race or nationality?
This sounds like the additional "hate crime" legislation when murder, assault,
abuse, harassment, etc. were ALREADY crimes WITHOUT specifying reasons.
What hate crime legislation does is ADD more legal work and expenses but without changing the outcome, so it's a hassle and waste. It's somehow "symbolic" hoping to serve as a "deterrent".
But if you are going to go through the trouble of teaching people it's wrong and punishable to do hate crimes and hate speech,
why not teach people NOT TO VIOLATE ANY LAWS including what is harassment, assault and in general violating CONSENT "DUE PROCESS" and Right of SECURITY and PROTECTIONS of other people.
Why not teach all citizens it is UNLAWFUL to deprive ANYONE of liberty, rights and protections of their persons, principles and property WITHOUT DUE PROCESS to prove they have committed some abuse or crime that MERITS the loss of liberty or property as the penalty agreed upon by written laws?
Why not teach THAT instead as a deterrent
and require OBEDIENCE and COMPLIANCE with laws and due process
in order to INVOKE the same rights, protections and privileges given in the laws?
Wouldn't that level of civics education and responsibility for law enforcement
be a more consistent DETERRENT instead of only teaching not to
target "certain people." why not respect equal rights and laws for ALL people?
