@Invisible funny, I thought I did in my first response
I am not a Christian...
But...I think there is something in the book
About loving your neighbor as yourself..
What don't you see?

@SW-User What does that have to do with hate crime vs regular crime?
I find it ironic that your name is thoughtcriminal, yet you can't see that hate crime sentence enhancements are literally punishments for thought crime.

@SW-User I have read 1984. Have you? In the book, thought crime was anything that went against what the ruling party deemed was correct. How is this any different?

@Invisible I teach it...
Your confusion or intentional ignorance on being a human is the issue...
Not my name...
If we treated each other with respect....then the question wouldn't be asked..
Why do you want to allow it otherwise?

@Invisible
the framers of the constitution had a great vision for the new nation...
however, they could not anticipate how the country could have developed.
the 13th, 14th& 15th amendments were supposed to take care of former slaves...clearly it didn't change the views of many in the country
as an aside
do you agree with mandatory minimum sentences?

@SW-User The minimums would not be problematic if they were appropriately designed. That's probably not the case
