THIS
is why more and more people oppose "hate crime" laws. They are wholly
misapplied and incompetently implemented. The issue is consistency.
I favor ALL
inter-racial crimes be designated "hate crimes" until proven
otherwise.
BUT that's NOT
what we have, NOR do we have the
reverse, "ALL inter-racial crimes" being seen as NON-"hate
crimes" until proven that they are. Which would ALSO be acceptable to me,
so long as there were a single standard for that designation applied to all.
What we have today is the worst kind of
hybrid....when blacks attack whites/Asians etc., the crime is assumed "NOT
to be a hate crime," whereas whenever a white/Asian etc., attacks a black
the crime is immediately assumed to be a "hate crime."
It's obviously time to scrap the existing system and
start over.
Personally I favor punishing ALL violent crimes
harshly regardless of motive. WHY
should a black crime victim get less justice (the attacker given a shorter
sentence) simply because that victim happened to be unfortunate enough to have
been victimized by a black felon?
HOW
does that inequity make ANY sense at all? (http://www.americasfreedomfighters.com/2015/04/02/update-police-say-vicious-beating-of-white-man-by-three-blacks-not-a-hate-crime-video/)
