BTW, I think all "hate crime" laws should be stricken. All of them. Crime is crime, and violent crime is not worse because of the perp having "hate" in his mind. It's thought-crime, plain and simple. What could possibly be more totalitarian that criminalizing thought?
Be as hateful as you like as long as it doesn't interfere with your neighbor. Harming someone physically, or other, already criminal action is none the less still criminal.
