  • Chuck Norris Should Shut Up About Hate Crimes

    In response to "Why should committing a crime when you hate someone be different/worse than committing a crime?"

    Paul, respectfully speaking, I think you miss the boat here. There absolutely is a difference between committing a crime against someONE you hate, and a group you hate because of sexual orientation, race, etc. If you hate someONE, it is presumably because something went awry in the relationship. Doesn't make it right at all. But it is one person. When the victimization occurrs, that ONE person knows to stay away from the perpetrator, can seek help, can file charges.
    Hate crimes, however, have the potential to be serial. They are not related to anything any individual person has done to the perpetrator and the victims have no reason to thing they should protect themselves against any particular individual until it is too late. The criminals then select another innocent victim.
    This is entirely different.
