Why is a crime worse because someone has hate in their heart? Crimes should be equal no matter the motivation.
Check it out:
What happened in Charleston http://alibertarianfuture.com/big-government/police-state/there-is-... is a tragedy. It was a heinous, cowardly crime, and the suspect deserves the death penalty if convicted. But, the shooting in Charleston was not a hate crime. There is no such thing as a hate crime.
The only thing that hate crime laws accomplish is to reinforce that blacks are different from whites. That is the opposite of what government should be doing. Instead of treating all people the same under the law, hate crime laws judge people based on their minute differences. These laws make people believe that those small features should be used to define them. That’s wrong. Our differences should not be defined or enforced by law. If anything, they should be overcome.
Hate crime laws, such as those being used to file charges against the Charleston shooter, should be repealed. The suspect clearly deserves to be charged with multiple homicide, but the motivations for his crimes should not affect his sentencing. As stated in the brilliant South Park clip above, hate crime laws are a “savage hypocrisy because all crimes are hate crimes”. These laws are just “splitting people into groups” and “support the idea that blacks are different from whites”. http://alibertarianfuture.com/big-government/police-state/there-is-...;
