That's exactly why it doesn't pass the logic test. What about if some group of people beat up a guy in a wheelchair because he was handicapped? Sorry, not covered under the hate crime laws. What about if a person beats up a women because she is a women? Sorry, not covered under the hate crime laws. (currently) And on and on..... Michael

Here's a question: A bank robber shoots a man as he flees the scene of the crime. He doesn't hate the man, he just deemed him to be in the way. The man he shoots dies. Meanwhile, another man singles out a Jewish man and beats him up because he hates Jews. Both men get caught, who deserves a stiffer penalty? The robber, who killed a man, or the hate criminal who gave a man a beating?
