His phone’s wallpaper displayed a swastika he wore a pendant with a swastika-like design he shared Nazi and racist memes with co-workers one had even referred to him in a text message as “lil Hitler.” And yet, in arguing for leniency, Nolan’s defense team claimed it wasn’t Nolan who inspired the attack, but rather Kiyomi, who, Nolan claimed, had herself been set on the path to neonazism by a series of increasingly reactionary media sources. Įvidence against Nolan showed an affinity for Nazism. The government argued for an “upward departure” in Nolan ’s sentencing-that is, more jail time than federal sentencing guidelines recommend given Nolan’s plea, criminal history, and severity of the act-pointing out that a strict penalty for Nolan would deter other acts of antisemitic violence such as the Tree of Life synagogue massacre in 2018. The Brewers’ crimes come at a time of increasing antisemitism throughout the United States. Despite being a minor at the time of the crimes, Kiyomi was tried as an adult for state charges of arson and was sentenced to two years’ probation. While Nolan had never before defaced a house of worship, after the Brewers’ arrest, investigators linked Kiyomi to at least two other incidents regarding houses of worship in the surrounding area, starting with break-ins and theft and escalating to vandalism and arson. Nolan Brewer, along with his then-17-year-old wife, Kiyomi Brewer, spray-painted a Nazi flag on a garbage shed at a Carmel, Indiana, synagogue and set fire to its lawn. But the effects, of course, are much more than people needing to tug at their collar a bit more than before.In May 2019, a young man in Indiana was sentenced to three years in federal prison for a hate crime. The impacts are being felt worldwide if you haven’t felt them, you can just ask a longtime resident of virtually any city what the weather was like years ago versus today. It cannot be overstated how very real the misery of climate change is. Measurements of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere averaged a whopping 424 parts per million in May -yet another historic peak in a steady climb scientists have recorded for decades. But the skyrocketing temperatures are also thanks to human fossil fuel use and excess carbon emissions. This extreme heat is partially caused by a regular El Niño weather pattern, which is helping temperatures to surge across the globe. “The month was the warmest June globally … exceeding June 2019-the previous record-by a substantial margin,” the organization said. Copernicus said Thursday that last month was the hottest June since its records begun. The heat is part of an ongoing and increasing threat. LGBT people are at increased risk for violence,” the officials also wrote.īut the detailed statement was never used instead Director of Communications Maria Reppas told staff she was “working with leadership on this one.” While officials never responded with comment to Lindquist’s questions about the two specific resources, it seemed that the intention of “leadership” was indeed just to quietly get rid of the entire web page. Intimate partner violence/sexual violence/domestic violence webpages often have this feature. “VDH does not have a ‘stance’ on medical transition as a state agency, VDH provides information, and the administration takes a position on issues.… QChat Space is not managed by VDH, but we can share that ‘quick escape’ features are typical for a variety of websites, particularly websites that could put a person at risk for violence from others. Emily Yeatts, a supervisor for the Health Department’s Division of Child and Family Health, and Rachel Brown, the Health Department’s adolescent health coordinator, drafted a response to Lindquist’s questions, detailing their goals “to be a trusted source of public health information for all Virginians” and adding that all “Virginians includes people of all ages, races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, and ability statuses.”
