Authorities say that the attack on two white men who were attacked apparently for driving a truck that had a Confederate flag might be a hate crime.

Fight over Confederate Flag decal could be investigated as hate crime, police say | fox13now.com

shouldn't be too hard to find the guy who threw the 1st punch, how many African American men wearing a sailor cap can there be in Salt Lake City?

The only annoying thing about this is if it happened to the opposite race (any opposite race) and whites were the perps, it WOULD be a hate crime without question. I wish hate crimes were created equal. It's entirely possible for someone to commit a hate crime against a white person, though we seem reluctant to admit it. It's entirely possible for someone to be racist against white people.

Sounds like a hate crime to me. By the way gangs have taken over SLC......when are they going to clean this sh*t up!

It's America, have people forgotten we may not all agree.......but it is FREEDOM to put things on our cars others may be offended by.

"The point is it's my right to drive what any kind of vehicle I want. If I want to fly the Confederate Flag, it's my right,” Leeper said.

I hate the COEXIST bumper sticker.......but if you want that crappy sticker on your Subaru......wear it proudly, I will just roll my eyes at your unawareness.

It is a hate crime, and it should be treated as such. This nonsense is getting out of hand on both sides, and harsh penalties for should behavior are the only thing that might deter some of this.

I don't care for the plastic testicles that people are attaching to their trucks. It doesn't mean I go key their car at the grocery store. People need to mind their own business.
