"Hate crime" is a stupid concept
First of all, it should go without saying that [i]most[/i] intentional crime is affectively aggressive in some way, thus should constitute a sort of hateful discrimination.
But in the end, why should it matter that somebody has punched you because you're black, a Muslim or gay? The crime is somebody has been punched, and that alone is what should be punished.

Edited by cxkxr: 7/14/2014 4:36:58 PMPretty much. It's a form of discrimination against straight white males.

Don't be rustled Floodian, just think of it as the government checking your white male privilege for you.

Because it gives liberals a blank check to incite race issues and persecute whoever they feel like.

7 RepliesHate Crime - OI FOOKIN H8 U M8 OIM GONNA BASH YE FOOKIN HED IN I SWER ON ME MUM Love Crime - I say old chap, I don't really like you so I'm going to strike you over the head thusly. But seriously, it's to do with the motivation. Yeah, violent crime is typically aggressive/hateful but the reasoning behind it is also important. If you killed someone purely because they were gay, black or a muslim - Then that points towards someone who is more likely to commit that sort of crime again than someone who walked in on their partner cheating and killed them both. In less serious terms, if you punch someone in the face because they are a different colour/gender/orientation or creed - The same sort of thing still applies, if you hate that group of people so much that you will just start fights/attack them then that's a more serious issue than someone who got slugged in a bar fight. They still get punished for the crime, but with a marginally harsher sentence (Typically).

Einstein[/quote] I find hate crimes as a way to add jail time ridiculous if it is not straight up bombing a place of worship or writing "Get out of here, <your racial slur of choice>". If I punch a black guy because he deserves it, I should not recieve a hate crime charge [spoiler]Edit: I don't mean he deserves it because he is black, that would be a hate crime[/spoiler]

Is there a difference on hating someone on things they can't control, and things they can control? [spoiler]Yes. [/spoiler]

The fact that we even have the concept of a "hate crime" just goes to show what little progress society has made in snuffing out racial inequality and social discrimination.
