I'm sure if I was seen stomping anyone while even mentioning their hair color I would be charged with an extra 5 year hate crime. Gotta love the hypocrisy....
   
============================
SEATTLE -- No hate crime charges will be filed against Seattle Police Detective Shandy Cobane for the April 17 incident where he was captured on videotape stomping a Hispanic man.



King County Prosecutor Dan Satteberg said the incident did not qualify under the state's "Hate Crime" law because his office's investigation revealed Cobane "did not intentionally target and then threaten or assault a person because of their race or national origin."

Cobane, a member of the gang unit, was on the scene as Seattle police detained three people including Martin Monetti, who is Hispanic, in their hunt for possible armed robbery suspects. The video shows Monetti lying face down without handcuffs and not under arrest.

On the video, you can hear an officer telling the man: "You got me? I'm going to beat the (expletive) Mexican piss out of you homey. You feel me?" ..............

Common sense is not so common.

I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.
