Vernon Jones: Politically Motivated Physical Attacks Should Be Hate Crimes
On Fox Across America with Jimmy Failla, Democratic Georgia State Representative Vernon Jones explained why he thinks anyone who attacks another person because of their political ideology should be charged with a hate crime.
“What I don’t like is how Democrats do not want people to be able to choose who they want to choose that’s not in line with their views or their thoughts and how they’ve gone so far to go about with high-tech voter suppression. If you wear a hat that’s not of their political persuasion, you can be attacked. We may not agree with your personal choice, but that’s your choice. We should not be intimidating people based on their political choice. And as a matter of fact, it should be a hate crime for someone to attack you based on your political ideology or your party affiliation.”
