I'm against hate crime laws.

But I dunno, it's certainly more admirable to actually have a more logical reason to kill somebody, like being a total douchebag.

No I don't believe they should, the person should be punished severely for assaulting someone in the first place & shouldnt have had to have had a racist motive to be dealt with properly. This actually, is a crime within itself as they are discriminating against certain races by treating cases more seriously just because there is a racist motive.
Now, Im not condoning racially motivated attacks or any form of racism for that matter. Personally it makes me sick to think that you can look at someone differently just because of the colour of their skin?

So, you consider killing someone because of the colour of their skin/race as a 'logical reason'? Typical American.

Hate crime legislation is ridiculous end of. As has been pointed out before, the assault is the crime, not the motive, there is no such thing as thought police (yet) so usually motive is hard to determine. And no one would admit to hate crime knowing full well it would come with a larger penalty. I find the suggestion of Hate Crime legislation to be racist in itself for cases like assault, murder etc. Same with harassment.

Also lol at mirrorball.
