Florida has hate crime laws and statutes. From the state's PDF on the topic:


Wearing Nazi insignia (including some who proudly sported SS pins) while lined up on public walkways while shouting "Jews will not replace us" to passersby is considered intimidation and, by definition, a hate crime. Here's the pdf link:

IANAL but I suspect “an act committed “ means more than speech.

In the past few years, we have seen the defacing of synagogues, office holders and judges being threatened and not only themselves, but also their children. This country better get a grip, because if we don't this is going to become worst. I'm getting to believe this is not going to stop until we start seeing bodies buried.

and, i guess climate change deniers are not nuts when 99% of the scientist that have publish papers say that burning fossil fuel is causing the planet heating up. We are very close to the tipping point. You are causing your grand and great-grandchildren to inherit a plant that is uninhabitable. I do not think you are nuts. Instead, i think you and those like you are stupid.

Hate crimes include intimidation. I mean - I can jump down the rabbit hole and come up with the exact laws, definitions, and statutes, but I'm a senior, my lifespan is limited, and I'm not in the mood to do your homework for you. If you want more information, check case law, state general statutes, federal law, and local regulations with regards to hate crimes and discrimination based on religion.

Looks like there were four of these protesters.

I wonder how many posters on TOTV were Nuclear Disarmament and Ban the Bomb or anti-Vietnam War protesters when that was all the rage?
They weren't exactly law abiding, or disruption free.
