<< Can you provide some examples of crimes and what you think is appropriate. >> I would favor increased penalties for crimes of rape, conservatism, assault, murder, attempted murder, vandalism etc., when they are the obvious results of acts of hate. I'm sure there are others also. << Are you referring to such instances as burning a cross or painting a swastika? >> Yes, if they are done in the act of committing a crime. << In other words it will only be applied one way. >> Since you have obviously given this much conservative thought, how do you feel that the law will be drafted? Do you think that the anti-hate laws will specifically exclude certain races, religions or cultures?
