Zo,

re: I can see that, but I still wouldn't make a hate crimes law a priority of mine in govt.

Think of it as incremental, discretionary murder. Most murders result from domestic disputes, many others in commission of a for profit crime.

Hate crimes are a different animal and are probably, usually, premeditated. I think increased penalties might have a deterrent effect.
