Nothing prevents them from saying that they aren't going to prosecute it as a hate crime

The thing that prevents them from saying that they aren't going to prosecute it is that they are still considering prosecuting it.

Deciding on a charging strategy takes a lot more thought than posting a hot take.

EDIT: And let's not forget that she is most definitely being charged with attempted murder, so no matter what the DA decides she's gonna have a bad time.

The previous DA was also a Republican, so it's clear that Republicans are capable of prosecuting hate crimes.

And I'd be willing to bet that Tarrant County charged as many hate crimes in 2023 as in previous years.

Can't imagine what sort of exculpatory evidence there could be

Not being able to imagine something doesn't mean it can't exist.

the simplest explanation is that it's a smaller suburb of Dallas-Ft Worth

Suburbs don't prosecute, the county DA does. This county voted for Biden in 2020, and it prosecuted 42 hate crimes in 2022.

If the DA hasn't added that already based on even this limited public information

The DA also has access to non-public information, including potential exculpatory evidence.

She was charged with attempted capital murder and injury to a child. ... The Euless Police Department has recommended that the incident be considered a hate crime and the Tarrant County District Attorney’s Office is currently investigating it

"Alleged" is what the DA has charged.

"Possible" is what the DA might add to the charges.

The opinions of the reporter, who is not a lawyer much less a prosecutor, are not helpful.

It's definitely possible to overstate that.

For example, almost nobody acknowledges that all of the major climate-related provisions in the Build Back Better act made it into the IRA, which Manchin voted for. Which is why climate scientists are generally very happy with the IRA.

A 6th day at 40% pay? Yeah, that's a big "no."

It's 40% extra pay, like overtime in the US.

Anyone can ask the SCOTUS to consider their case. But they usually decline.

As the article points out, Coca Cola isn't shipping syrup to Russia.

But it does ship syrup to China, which means Russia can get it.

That's true. So it's not hard to believe that Hamas is diverting aid to itself, and at least partly responsible.

Hamas doesn't care about Gazan civilians. They are a "necessary sacrifice".

A 21% stake in a company is not control of that company. Especially when Kar-Tess, a private holding company, has an equally large stake.

And when Coke left Russia, did you expect them to burn down their bottling facilities and kill their employees?

The same Russian people are working in the same Russian plants, so it's no surprise the new product tastes like the old one.

After Coke pledged to quit Russia, other companies started importing Coke products and making Coke knockoffs.

How exactly is this Coke's fault?

So you think Hamas is not interfering with food delivery?

They didn't say nobody in Gaza is starving.

"If there was a famine somewhere in Gaza, it was not instigated by Israel." ... The research underscores that while sufficient food enters Gaza, its distribution within the territory is inconsistent, largely due to sabotage and theft by Hamas.

The AMA does not issue or revoke medical licenses. In this case, that decision would be up to the state of Texas.

Just a figure of speech. But getting an eviction proceeding in your rental history report is like getting a bankruptcy in your credit history report.

It's actually from one the reports that OP made into a screenshot upthread.

Maybe they didn't want you to read the rest.

I'm grumpy about being forgotten in the generational sniping

Every generation grows up, settles down, and starts quarrels with its parents.

In 10-15 years, Zoomers will remember you.

Wrong again.
