disgusting. Funds should be taken and given to the family of the boy she traumatized.

Wouldn't count on that happening anytime soon with this administration. In fact she might get a Presidential medal of honor.

I think it’s illegal to commit a crime and profit from it.

unless, of course, you're a wealthy ceo or a republican.

Tell that to the Felon in Chief.

And the Republicans care about legality? Especially if it affects one of their own?

As awful as it is, I'm not sure any crime was committed. Hate speech is generally protected under the 1st amendment (some restrictions apply).

I also believe you have to be convicted for it to take effect.

I'm pretty sure that's not a federal law, only certain states.

Made $300k and raised her goal to $1M?

Greedy ass trailer trash profiting off hate and racism.

In April 2024, four teens spelled out a racist slur using cups on a chain-link fence on a pedestrian bridge near Century High School. The Olmsted County Attorney’s Office declined to charge the teens, arguing the incident did not meet the legal definition of a hate-based crime in part because it wasn’t directed at a single person.

That's why she wants to split so fast. This does meet the definition because it was directed towards the child.

America, where people will empty their pockets to protect a racist from being charged for her hate crime, but can't be bothered about the houseless, veterans with PTSD, starving children, etc...

I have to say that "Christian GoFundMe" site she's using sure is supporting a great cause.

Well, it was created by White Nationalists. It's doing what it intended to do.

Hendrix’s fundraiser Thursday afternoon appeared to be set around $20,000. As of Friday morning, she’s moved the goal to raise $1 million.

this is just gonna start a new trend....

Worse is that there is only so much money that racists are able/willing to give to other racists. As the funds dry up, these actions are going to get more deplorable as they need to squeeze blood from a stone.

It's up to ~~$452k+~~ $528k+ now.

America has gone mad.
