What I don't understand is the disconnect between burning the flag, and burning the cross.

What disconnect. I would not throw people in jail for 7 years for burning the flag either, and my guess is Pickering would not as well.

Edit - OK I get it you mean the disconnect from those who would punish burning crosses harshly but not punish burning flags at all.

If we are going to prosecute hate crimes

I don't agree with hate crime laws.
