I don’t think I’ve ever seen this before. Do you support the charges?

Two teenage girls were arrested Tuesday on hate-crime charges after allegedly hitting a white woman on the back of the head on July 9 in Queens, causing bleeding, according to police.

The black teenagers, 15 and 16 years old, along with a third suspect, reportedly got into an argument with a 57-year-old woman on the bus. The argument escalated and the girls allegedly made racial remarks, saying they “hate white people” and “hate the way they talk,”

Why wouldn’t I support the charges? It sounds like an argument escalated. I mean look I can’t see how anyone supports Trump. But that’s their business not mine. So for this woman’s political views, which she’s got full right to have, she got beaten. And these girls said they hate white people and how they talk. So unless there’s details the article left out it appears to fall under a hate crime. I guess the jury will decide in the end.

Sounds appropriate to me. The teens escalated the disagreement to physical altercation and made racial remarks. If the teens have an issue with the charges they can fight them in the court of law like every other person that disagrees with charges filed against them.

I support the charges and would regardless of race, politics, and so on.

Last I had read, they were still looking for the one with green hair, too.

I support the charges.

I had to chuckle at this comment on the article:
"Will elderly white ladies now riot in the streets, smash windows, loot stores and burn down buildings?"

That's a hell of a funny visual.

Sounds like a hate crime to me.

It’s a hate crime committed by knucklehead teenagers. Charges have to stick.

Seen what before?

Charges are valid. Don’t see much of a reason why they wouldn’t be.
