No, Rachel, it's not you who is missing something.
Gerardo, you're really so oblivious? Or are you joking? If so the humour is not coming across.

Gerardo,
"Among other things", the article you shared describes how vandals targeted a store with a Jewish CEO (Heather Reisman), smearing it with blood-red paint and posting hateful messages that falsely accuse Ms. Reisman of funding genocide (see this link for images and more context). The incident recalls similar targeting of Jewish stores during WWII. But you seem to be concerned with the fact that the police have charged the vandals for this blatantly antisemitic crime, not the antisemitic crime itself. Am I missing something?

Among other things, this article tells the story of tremendous abuse of police power in Toronto against a professor engaged in protest.
