I suspect the jury will disagree with you. If he had left off the hate speech, he might have gotten off with misdemeanor damages and a small fine. While you were sleeping, they made it against the law to do it simply because you hate all black people, people of a different religion, or you don't like who they sleep with. Don't let me hold you back. If you want to act out your hate, about people different than you, knock yourself out. I would advise against advertising why you did it, as it is now a separate offense, a state offense in most states, or a Federal offense anywhere in the United States. I had one of my men, who hated a guy for f#cking his wife back in the past. He waited a year, intentionally not crossing paths with the guy. He walked up to me after a meeting, handed me a wad of money, saying if you don't see me show up on time, call this number, if I'm there, come bail me out. I said you going to do something stupid? He said you don't know. You don't want to know, Sir. I heard what happened later. He knew what beer joint this guy drank at, out in the country. That Friday night, he put parked his car down the road, put on a ski mask, walked into the bar past the guy, turned, swung down on the guy as hard as he could with a military sock loaded with pennies, knocking him out cold, breaking his jaw and a bunch of his teeth, dumped the pennies on him, quickly walked out while everybody was in shock and drove away, bodda-bing, bodda-boom, one and done! He saw me before first formation, to get his money back, saying I'm here, it's all good, Sir. That's what you do with hate. It is a dish, best served cold. No need to mouth off or leave stupid notes.
