Hypothetically: What if a few gay fellas decide to beat up on a straight guy- Is that a hate crime?
Why isn’t rape considered a hate crime? (IMO – this should be a death penalty crime)
Was OJ a hate crime? Why not?
If I get into a fight with someone of Italian background, being Irish does that qualify as a hate crime? (Move to Brooklyn and find out how important a difference race is)
If we're all created equal and justice is blind – what makes some else special in the eyes of the law?
I understand the need for special circumstances, kids, police, etc. But special laws will be abused.
I'm naturally curious why people think a piece of paper will make them feel safer. The laws that are on the books now are perverted all the time and not enforced properly, so the answer is making new ones? they'll be perverted even worse.
