A New Castle County, Delaware, grand jury indicted Olivia Winslow and Camryn Amy, both 21, on Tuesday on charges of second-degree robbery, second-degree conspiracy, endangering the welfare of a child, third-degree assault, attempted third-degree assault, offensive touching, and felony hate crimes, according to Delaware News Journal.
Last month, a viral video showed a 7-year-old boy named Riley being accosted by two women in what appeared to be an attack solely based on the pro-Trump hat the boy was wearing while waiting to eat dinner outside of the Democratic National Convention in Delaware.
Totally agree with the GJ on this one, especially inasmuch as it is indicative of most Liberal behavior. However, i still maintain my objection to the notion of a "hate crime".
Anyone disagree with the actions here?

I certainly agree that the behavior of those two women was reprehensible, regardless of whether committed by Trumpists or anti-Trumpists. I vehemently reject the notion that "it is indicative of most liberal behavior." If anything, there is more than abundant evidence that such behavior is more typical of right wing extremists than of liberals or progressives. In fact, Trump has been recorded as actually encouraging his followers to such behavior at his numerous rallies (he famously even promised to pay their legal fees if caught at it). Thus your accusation is more likely to be yet another example of projection on your part than anything else.

It is already a demonstrable fact. I'm struck by the mother's reaction, telling his small child to go after the two women she later claims were violent threats. What kind of Mom does that? All to salvage a piece of cloth that was manufactured in China with Trump's name on it. Gotta love those conservative family "values."

Right-Wing Domestic Terrorism Has Increased By More Than 300% Since Trump Took Office: Report
COLIN KALMBACHERJul 18th, 2020, 5:29 pm 1113
According to a recent report, deaths attributable to so-called “right-wing domestic terrorists” have increased by more than 300% since President Donald Trump took office in 2017.
A database compiled by the Type Media Center’s David Neiwert and based on government interpretations of ideological motivations showed that at least 87 people were “killed by far-right terrorists” during Trump’s first three years in office. That number swells to 145 dead in three years if the 58 people killed by Stephen Paddock during the Las Vegas massacre in October 2017 are added in.
The Type Media Center was formerly known as The Nation Institute and was previously attached to The Nation magazine.
Trump claims ‘left-wing extremism’ is engulfing the US. Conflating protests with terrorism is the real danger
But research shows the threat posed by far-right extremist groups far exceeds that of other groups, including left-wing networks and attackers inspired by Islamist extremism.
Far-right extremists were behind two-thirds of the attacks and plots in the US in 2019 and more than 90% in the first half of this year.
Left-wing ideology has also inspired terrorism in the past, and indeed, left-wing terrorism remains a real contemporary threat.
But Antifa does not yet represent a terror threat by virtue of its organisation and activities. As it stands, it falls below the conventional thresholds for terrorism
And don't forget that one of the very biggest terrorist acts in recent years, the Oklahoma City bombing was masterminded by Tim McVey, a right wing extremist.
And I repeat, Trump has been recorded in his rallies encouraging his minions to harass, attack and bully his opponents, even to the point of promising to pay their legal fees if they are caught doing it and arrested.

So, no bet?
and a convenient omission of Maxine's call to arms.
but we derail
first explain how you conflate my statement about the 2 young women's behavior into an odd pissing match of violent domestic terrorists?
