Fifteen members of the Respect the Flag group have been charged with terrorist threats and gang activity stemming from their decision to crash a children’s birthday party. Most people thought the group were completely out of line and finally the courts agreed.
According to WSB-TV, 15 members of a group called Respect the Flag have been indicted and accused of making terroristic threats for reportedly driving through an outdoor party, threatening partygoers and hurling racial slurs.
“The individuals charged will be arraigned, will have the charges presented to them, then [comes] the process of giving them their due process and their day in court,” District Attorney Brian Fortner told the news station.
The date was July 25th, 2015 when a group of black people were celebrating the birthday of a young child in their village, as we all do in this country. At approximately 3:30pm, a pick up truck carrying a large Confederate flag stopped near the birthday party and the group taunted and terrified the people at the birthday party.
Video footage was taken at the event eventually show police separating the two groups. Someone said one of the 10 men and five women of the Respect the Flag group had a gun. Nevertheless, it was clear they had no business at the birthday party and were clearly attempting to agitate a fight of some sort.
Hopefully, these people will not only be charged as terrorist, but convicted and sentenced properly. It is time to send a message to Americans through the legal system that terrorism and intimidation will not be tolerated.
