Scenario: A man is tried for murder. The victim is of a different race/religion/sexual orientation. He is tried by his state of residence for murder and acquitted. Then the federal government looks at the case, decides that the murder was motivated by hate, classifies it as a "hate crime" and then tries the suspect in federal court.

Double jeopardy? Most people would think so. But would an overzealous prosecutor? What would a federal judge say? Could it depend on the political leanings of the judge?

So let's say the defendant appeals and the federal judge rules that while he cannot be tried again for murder, he could be tried for hate. You have no act of violence on which to hang a "hate crimes" charge because the defendant has already been acquitted of murder.

So does the federal government have the right to try the suspect for murder (as a "hate" crime) since he wasn't tried for a "hate" crime before?

When people wake up and are ready to be free (again), I hope people like McLaughlin will still be around for us.

However, if the reactionaries in the 60s hadn't used the confederate flag's placement atop the state house to champion against civil rights, then it wouldn't continue to carry that message in this context. This symbol was co-opted not by fringe groups but by our very own state as a symbol of oppression, a mere generation ago. And as you can see in this thread, there are still those that follow that beacon they lit in the 60s.
