Hate crimes legislation is a total joke. If you kill someone, and it's on purpose, that's hate.

Yes, killing someone for being gay is stupid. So is killing someone for looking at you the wrong way, or because he stole your girlfriend, or anything else. There is no good reason to murder someone - it's always equally stupid. Abolish the concept entirely.

Well, he mentioned killers in his post. Give me an example of another anti-gay "hate crime."

I don't really think two cases of vandalism should be treated differently, except for taking into account the extent to which the place was vandalized.

Both should be illegal, and there should be a harsh sentence.

Killing someone for sleeping with your wife should be legal.
