But what you seem to be ignoring is that a hate crime has two elements. A guy who kills the man he is robbing has committed two crimes correct? This combination allows for the crime to be tried as a capital crime... Maybe that is the way we should go... How about if instead of calling it a hate crime they called it a capital crime. Would that change things? Remember what we commonly know as a hate crime is not always race based. It has applications towards religion, sexual orientation and other groups. But still what we justify as a hate crime now still has the second element that a simple crime lacks. Terrorism.

States that have captial punishment for murder have it. Adding color into the mix just adds to racism. The word Terrorism has no weight anywhere thanks to bush. In bush world calling any citzen a terroists destroys his rights. And like said before all rights should be observed till convinction.

Hate crime legislation simply adds more punishment for motivation.

I think we can all agree, vandalism is vandalism, murder is murder, robbery is robbery.

It is a fine line from Hate Crimes to Hate Speech. Hate speech being thought control.

To the point at hand. If I was attacked and beaten by a black man, because I was walking my dog in the wrong neighborhood. What God Damn difference does it make why? For I was attacked, period. Punish him for attacking me, and I do not care about the motivation behind it.

What bothered me most about this article was the victim's quote at the end:

"I have found my inner peace by helping spread tolerance to people of other faiths," she said.

Why doesn't she try to spread tolerance to people of her own faith???

But motivation is a fact that has to be proven in court unless you plan to argue completely circumstantial evidence.

To try a different vein. If you are attacked for being in the wrong neighborhood then gang stuff is probably why. If you are attacked because the guy was crazy then that differs. His punishment should reflect more need for counseling. Should it be a lesser punishment, I don't believe so, but the punishment should fit the Who, what, when, where, and WHY. MO, motive. They are legal terms. I still say a murder by an angry lover presents a threat only to the victim. A murder like Jasper Texas presents a threat to the victim and all those within his race. I feel they are different crimes.
