No, it's already a crime no need to make conflate it more.
"No, it's already a crime no need to make conflate it more"
Yet we HAVE hate crime laws which IMO, are ONLY used by the left run DOJ to go after whites yet, we seldom , if ever, see them go after blacks who commit crime against whites.
If hate crime is to exist, then sure. I don't think a 'hate' crime should exist though. An assault that is racially motivated does not logically need to be defined separately from any other assault. It's not that the racism factor is unimportant but rather I'm not sure giving it a separate label actually does anything other than makes us feel like we've accomplished more than we actually have.
Should Intentional Vandalizing a Veterans Memorial Be Considered a Hate Crime
the legal concept of a hate crime needs to be abolished.
any given crime needs to be judged on its own merit.
the fallacy that labeling a crime against some protected class, cops etc to heap on additional punishment is mind boggling.
Any law can be changed at any time, discretion is taken from judges...a good thing and a bad thing, depending on the competency of the judge.
The justice system is broken and out dated, toss in activist, career oriented prosecutors who derive from a DOJ where its head can lie on a warrant, judge shop and receive no legal penalty and justice becomes a fantasy.
Defacing a vet or other monument should be a property crime with appropriate penalties that must include restitution.
