This was done in a liberal neighborhood in a college town in a very conservative area - house supposedly has 10 or so rainbow flags up. While insensitive, does it constitute a hate crime?
Here's a thought.

Stop advertising your weird proclivities and just possibly nothing will happen.

Don't see why not. Nothing says "Howdy, Neighbor!" like the gift of some fine cuts of beef.

Part of a carcass in the street in front of a home with a bunch of rainbow flags on the porch. If it weren't for the flags I would guess white trash lived there due to the porch and condition of the property.

It could have been intentionally dumped there or not.

True, but I want to live in a country where people are free to express themselves.

It was in the street. Unless you live on the sidewalk, that would not be your doorstep.

It could be seen as a veiled thereat: "Next time the body won't be a cow." But it's veiled enough (if that was the intention) that I'm not sure it could be successfully prosecuted as a hate crime.
