>incarcerating people for saying the phrase "we love bacon" at a construction site

You conveniently neglected to mention that it was the site where a _mosque_ was being constructed.

Changes things a bit.

You’re right, it’s totally acceptable to arrest someone for saying we love bacon at the vacant construction site of a potential mosque.

I’m sure the construction equipment was very unhappy.

>Changes things a bit.

No, I don't think it does.
