I am saying if its a hate crime, it should get a stiffer sentence.

Define hate crime. You've said before it doesn't have to be about race. If a criminal hates the victim for personal reasons, or maybe because he wears a jersey of a hated sports team is that a hate crime? If someone killed me because I was wearing a Zack Thomas jersey would that be less of a crime or deserving of less punishment then if they killed me because I am white?
