This, however,
is not only tolerated, but considered "art" by some.

The New York Police Department said its hate crimes task force had launched an investigation after posters of soccer star Megan Rapinoe were vandalized with misogynistic comments and homophobic slurs at a Manhattan subway station.
According to USA Today, the defaced posters, which were located around the Bryant Park subway stop, were reported to authorities on Monday morning — two days before the U.S. women’s national soccer team celebrated its World Cup victory at a ticker-tape parade in the city.
“Hate has no place in the transit system and we work hard to make the subway a welcoming, safe environment for everyone,” a spokesman for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority told the New York Post of the vandalism.
“We referred this to NYPD which responded to investigate. Our maintenance teams got the posters cleaned and we will have them replaced with new ones if necessary.”
So moustaches and blacked out teeth are hate crimes too?
I wonder how much Megan had to pay them to disfigure the posters so she could play victim?
Yeah, suuuuure they will.....................
But mugging, assaults and rapes are OK?
99 to 1 that damage to the posters was done by a whacko liberal.
To display those posters is part of a hateful triggering campaign.
She’s an anti-American b*tch and lots of people don’t like her. That doesn’t make it a hate crime. Just a dislike crime. It’s called regular vandalism.
I clicked on this to answer, but can’t think of anything to say.
Stupidity beyond words.
She is allowed to hate, other people not so much.
LOL! Srsly? Is nigel POd about it? I saw a flash of something last night on a tv at a venue that looked liked a statue of nigel screaming for the girls cup win being unveiled. I believe it was in, where else, kali. He’s a nasty little tyke.
I was cheering them on, watching the games, but that Rapinoe, (and I do not care if she is male, female, straight, homo, etc... ) But now this is one more pro sport I will not be watching, supporting, attending their games. I think all that is left is golf, or tennis.... for me.
yeah.
hate for me, but not for thee..
typical leftist double standard philosophy/thought process
We are now seeing the real intent of hate crime laws, and it’s not about dragging deaths of poor black men.
It’s not even about protecting obnoxious bull dyke football players who can’t shut the f$$k up.
It’s about coercive social control and intimidating people who the power structure don’t like and punishing them for fake, made up crimes
They have already put more resources into investigating this than the entitre seth rich investigation
M*zzies killing people is a hate crime. Defacing a poster is childish vandalism, and does not rate a response from the police.
Fighting back against political correctness. Better give the jackboots bigger truncheons. That will tamp down that resistance.
Yeah, true hate deserves a ticker-tape parade.
Kind of amazing reminder of how things looked when Dinkens was mayor. That's all gone for now.
