The 'victims' deserve better rules surely. Being a racist or misogynist has nothing to do with any law. You either agree with being one or dont. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racist seems to be used against somebody people just disagree with, it gets thrown about at random just to try and shut others up or win an argument. ie Meghan claiming speculation about a mixed race baby was 'racist' when he's about 2 tints off being albino. Not getting her own way was due to racism and any criticism of her appalling behavior in the press was due to her being about 25% black. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The liberal elite have always shied away from this issue. My ancestors were on the Trail of Tears. My grandpa spoke about it a bit. Terrible how they treated native American Indians, and still do. But also terrible how bad racism is in the US. Perpetuated primarily by white people. Now, conservative white people. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as people committing such offences can find a weapon which maybe be a baseball bat ,axe , knife , gun, machete there will always be these type of attacks, guns just make it easier and increase the death toll. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridiculous answer, I never suggested you could hence the "death toll would be lower" at the end, try reading it again. but with a knife or machete you sure could kill more than 1 easily, the point is if people want to go around murdering others at random they will. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on close scrutiny, and I quote from your link, it finds hate crimes are- "A hate crime (also known as a bias-motivated crime or bias crime)[1] is a prejudice-motivated crime which occurs when a perpetrator targets a victim because of their membership (or perceived membership) of a certain social group or race. Examples of such groups can include, and are almost exclusively limited to ethnicity, disability, language, nationality, physical appearance, religion, gender identity or sexual orientation." So mocking somebody for their physical appearance ie orange complexion or small hands or mocking hairstyle or obesity is a HATE CRIME. Yet I have read members here mocking somebody for this exact thing. All one way though, I never saw any poster mock anyone for being of dark color for example. Any explanation for how the left can carry out hate crimes daily with no penalty? And then it concludes mocking someone on the basis of their ethnicity is a hate crime. I saw many many posts here mocking the former first lady for this. Starting to notice a real pattern now. And mocking somebody for a disability is a hate crime. Yet I read again many many times here posts continually mocking the former President for his bone spur disability. That, once again, is a hate crime. How can it be hate crimes are alive and well and flourishing on this forum? Very very worrying would you not agree Jeff? 3 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can it be hate crimes are alive and well and flourishing on this forum? Very very worrying would you not agree Jeff? Maybe these will help. From what I've read, hate crimes are very difficult to prosecute. Thus, police are hesitant to do this. https://theconversation.com/what-is-a-hate-crime-the-narrow-legal-definition-makes-it-hard-to-charge-and-convict-157488 Yet officials often resist the quick classification of incidents as a hate crime. Hate crimes have precise qualities, which must be met in order to satisfy legal requirements. And even when police and prosecutors believe the elements of a hate crime are present, such crimes can be difficult to prove in court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
