Being shot at with a pellet gun after making racial or homophobic slurs is a ‘hate crime’. Being shot at with a REAL gun and/or beaten to a pulp isn’t a ‘hate crime’. They love you unless they say otherwise,right?

Stupid kids. If they'd just picked on a straight white guy everything would be copacetic.

Officers found a large air assault rife [sic]
Since when is an air rifle (BB or pellet gun) considered an assault weapon?

Gee, gay trumps Black in protected pecking order.
I wonder if there will be any blacklash from this.

“Officers found a large air assault rife, a tactical Airsoft pistol and a large bag of ammunition inside the car, records say.”
And Rush Limbaugh says “Words have Meaning”?
Not the words in this sentence. AIR assault rifle? TACTICAL Airsoft pistol? Ammunition?
These words are non-sense

Oh,,,the horror..!!! /s

Back in the early to mid ‘70’s I lived on that block of Burgundy Street. It was a very, very well to-do neighborhood then. I considered myself very fortunate to have the means to live there in my late teens to early 20’s.
Sad to see the vermin mess the place up. These punk kids must have Northern roots, because NOLA born blacks didn’t behave like that. Oh, how times have changed.

Airsoft guns are NOT pellet guns...

These words are non-sense True, but they're written by people that cringe at merely hearing the word "gun". Notice how every rifle is described as an "assault rifle" these days? It's never just called a "rifle".

Back in the 70’s southern blacks still had cultural memories of what happened when southern whites got pushed too far.
To: USMCPOP
Proves that when they use the term “assault” they’re only talking about the way something looks.
“Air Soft rifle” doesn’t sound quite so scary or evil.

It still is an upscale neighborhood, but there is no fence around the french quarter to keep people out.

Does it fly in and assault? Yup, but not alone, the SUV is leading the attack.
