Hate crimes are crimes against a minority group or a discriminated against group, aren't they?
Why do they have to be against a minority group?
Cant people hate other people for racial reasons and be themselves in a minority group?
Why do you discriminate against whites like this? How long have you been an anti-white bigot? Do you hate yourself?

I asked a question. That was my understanding of the hate crimes law. If I am wrong about that, please enlighten me.
Currently, for example, there are cities / states who do not recognize 'Political Hate Crimes'. Recently a video was shown of 2 young blacks pulling a white man out of his car - a car that had a Trump Bumper Sticker on it - and beating him as they berated him for voting for Trump and while witnesses cheered the attackers on.
The police were reported as saying ON CAMERA that since the attackers comments were about politics and not about race they could not charge them with a RACIAL Hate Crime and since their state did not recognize POLITICAL Hate Crimes as a crime not much would be done to the attackers.
This sparked outrage, and the police department quickly stated the last statement about not much being done to them was NOT the case because - as everyone was upset about - the individuals would still be charged with several crimes for attacking the man they pulled out of the car.
The whole idea of 'Hate Crimes' is a STUPID, BIASED idea, not to mention as some argue a case of 'double jeopardy' - being charged for the same crime twice.
- I have never heard of a crime like the one mentioned above that did NOT include some type of HATE.
- 'Assault' is 'assault' - punish the CRIME, don't try to control/punish the thoughts/attitudes of people, trying to decide why someone broke the law.
A whistleblower came forward when Eric holder took over the AG position and revealed Holder briefed his staff that the US AG's office would NOT be enforcing any more cases of 'Reverse Discrimination'.
-- That's RACIST.
CNN sowed they believe that black-on-white crimes can NOT be 'Hate crimes'.
Polls have shown that many (liberals/blacks) believe blacks can NOT be racist, that it is only a 'white thing'. (Good grief)
The whole idea of 'Hate Crime, imo, needs to be abolished. Punish people for breaking the law EQUALLY! No special treatment for anyone!
The symbol of Justice is a lady wearing a blindfold holding a scale. The whole reason behind the blindfold is to demonstrate how JUSTICE IS SUPPOSED TO BE BLIND to color, race, sex, religion, monetary status, political status, etc.
For too long to many people / groups have had their thumps on the scale with the blindfold off:
Federal Politicians ILLEGALLY & UN-CONSTITUTIONALLY exempting themselves from laws, protecting each other from prosecutions for crimes WE are all held to.
Illegals in this country protected because they are part of an agenda.....
etc.....
One thing I am hoping for in the future is that the DOJ 'house' is CLEANED - wiped cleaned and started again. That EQUAL JUSTICE will begin being applied, that the Constitution and Rule of law will once again be upheld, enforced, defended, and applied equally. It has been too long since this has been the case.
