There has to be more to the story, cause if all that happened was leaving bacon, then yeah, **** the EU. Should I be arrested if I drop some bacon on the steps of a synagogue?

Take big bacon's dick out of your mouth and think about it in these terms.

I suppose it was this thing:

Some unspecified verbal abuse was involved as well. Still the sentencing seems pretty harsh.

I was thinking it was probably to make an example of them more than anything.

Still sounds like horse****. A fair reason to get a restraining order, but jail time, even a suspended sentence? Get the **** out of here.

A large group of men setting an abnormally large fire hazard on someone's lawn is a bit farther than a couple of guys with pork.

I've done worse than that, been court and not got a prison sentence. They must have previous or something.

Can't say the comparison holds up well.
A burning cross on black people's property is more or less a death threat, due to the historical ties to the KKK, lynchings and all that. A bacon attack on the other hand seems kinda dickish, but nowhere near the same caliber.
