Man calls pigs nazis, so was charged with hate speech(1)

1-https://reason.com/2018/06/29/hate-crime-cops-nazi-black-man...

Edit: stating nothing but a fact and getting downvoted.

Article does not contain the word pig even once, maybe check those facts.

Anothet fun fact: People have been calling police pigs since the first ones, the Bow Street Runners.

I mean, if you think the writer should have use some derogatory term for cops maybe you should take it up with them. Still does not make what you wrote factual.

> the first ones, the Bow Street Runners

Incidentally this is also counter factual:

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_criminal_justice#In...

Does it really help to disparage an entire group just because a small minority of said group are problematic?
