I guess I don't see the crime here -- much less how it rises to the level of a "hate crime".
Two 16-year-old Crystal Lake girls were expected in juvenile court Tuesday on hate-crime charges for allegedly printing and distributing fliers with pictures of two boys kissing and inflammatory statements about homosexuality.The girls, both of whom are students at Crystal Lake South High School and whose names were not released because of their ages, were arrested Friday, Crystal Lake Police Chief Dave Linder said. One of the boys on the flier is a student at the school.
When an officer tried to stop the girls from distributing the fliers in a school parking lot, they climbed a fence and ran, Linder said.
Both girls face charges of committing a hate crime, disorderly conduct, and obstructing justice. One girl also was charged with resisting arrest.
Under Illinois law, a person commits a hate crime when he or she commits a crime against another person based on that person’s race, color, creed, religion, ancestry, gender, sexual orientation, disabilities or national origin.
So tell me -- where is the crime against another person necessary to qualify as a hate crime? It appears here that what we have is a case of speech being criminalized. Yes, there is the issue of whether their venue was appropriate, but even that does not qualify as a crime against a person. And I'm not alone in asking the question -- at least one gay site has the same concern.
Seems to me that this case may be the "poster child" against hate crime laws.
