Manure spread on the street in the path of a gay rights parade in Conway, Arkansas. Should this be a misdemeanor, or a seriously felony?

But in any event, should the law really treat differently manure spreading aimed at a gay pride parade at a St. Patrick Day's Parade (since hate crimes laws would cover crimes motivated by the target's race and ethnicity), but not manure spreading aimed at a Veterans of Foreign Wars parade or an anti-gay parade?

Volokh discusses.
