<< I'd suggest that what you see as not concerned is in fact the certain belief of the majority with half a brain or more and the common sense of at least a nine year old, that existing laws when followed clearly cover hate crimes with appropriate sanction. >>

You criticize and call names constantly, even when you have not been provoked to do so. I'll bet that there is an interesting reason and story behind your reaction.

Existing laws do not demand proper penalties for hate based crimes. Our justice system fails in other quarters too, judging by the number of criminals loose on our streets with long records of felony convictions.

You sound totally happy with our system of justice, and feel that it does well against the current nature of crime in the U.S. Well........ don't worry, be happy.
