You said “If hate is a crime then...” I said hate isn’t a crime. I never said you claimed hate isn’t a crime. It’s literally right there to read. Why are you mischaracterizing what I said when it’s so easy to see?!Hate isn’t a crime... where are you getting that from? Targeting people based on race, sex, religion or sexual orientation and assaulting or murdering them is a crime.No. If hate is a crime should there also be different degrees of hate? How about Hate. Strongly Dislike and Dislike?There are different degrees of murder. Do you want to get rid of all those and treat them all the same?Is 1 crime more heinous than another just because it is motivated by "Hate"? I don't think so. Tell the family of a murder victim that their loss is not so bad because it was not motivated by hate. Evidence of hate can be useful as a motive, but should not be a crime in itself. Murder is murder period.
I didn't say hate isn't a crime but you know that. I see you used that to skirt the real reason for my post. You brought up different degrees of murder. Why can't or shouldn't there be different degrees of hate?
There are different degrees of hate. 1st degree: hate that is acted upon. 2nd degree: hate that is expressed but not acted upon. 3rd degree: hate that is felt but not expressed:
happy?!
