Anyway I just think a reason for a hate crime should DEFINITELY be taken into consideration during sentencing.
sweet nothing it's ok, how were you to know? although just so you do know, I prefer neither because my grandmother and aunt were in a bomb set off by UVF even though they were protestant.

'So you're in favor of policing people's thoughts? And you're against freedom of expression? Every crime is motivated by hate/greed/lust etc, people get punished for what they do, it's not for us to judge people's motives. Self defense is an exception of course.'
To quote myself. How can you quantify how bad someone's motives are? Hey you, you killed a that man because he was black, 5 extra years! See what I'm saying?
