Speaking as someone who firmly believes in racial and sexual equality, I believe that the notion of a "hate crime" is foolish.
Murder is murder.
And the same is true for other crimes.
Attaching additional penalities for the "thought" behind the crime smacks of 1984 and the "thought" police.
We already see 'thoughts' being prosecuting in the area of sexual moreys with men now being persecuted for taking pictures of underage CLOTHED girls (WITH parents consent!!)
I personally don't give a damn what you think of blacks/whites/gays, etc. so long as you don't act in a criminal fashon.
