Good.

I'm actually very surprised at that. "Hate crime"? Incredible they viewed it that way.

Not saying I disagree, just that I'm surprised.

The whole "Hate Crime" thing always has been and always will be something I do not agree with. Crime is crime, is crime. What crime was committed here? petty theft? Charge her with petty theft.

Fucking hate crime bullshit.

Actually, I somewhat agree with you. I don't like the hate crime stuff, myself. Petty crime, though? Nah. I want this one to hurt more than that...

[Mik]

I agree on the concept, but if we're going to have it it has to be applied equally.

[Copper]

I don't think hate is a crime.

It may cause or incite or suggest other crimes.

But the hate part alone doesn't make sense.

I think assault is appropriate. They physically attacked the boy.

[Klaus]

What if I want to hate somebody? Shouldn't that be a right instead of a crime (if you keep your hate non-violent, of course).

[Mik]

I think we all agree hate crime is a ridiculous concept.

[Copper]

Yes, we all agree.

[LuFins Dad]

I hate hate crime! And bigots. I enjoy beating bigots with a baseball bat.

Wait, is that a hate crime?

Maybe, but it's a great song.
