What kind of society have we created when a crime motivated purely by hate, anger, rage, by a group of thugs enjoying inflicting harm on others—no better than the worst barbarians and war criminals—can’t be called a “hate crime” because of the color of the victims? Can thugs walk freely through our streets and as long as they beat a token black along with whatever other victims they hurt, they are immune from the stricter penalties of a “hate crime”? “Hold on, they got a white dude,” the person filming said. If it’s got to be solely about race to be a “hate crime” then we’ve rolled back 144 years of progress since the 15th Amendment, and we’re reliving Dred Scott.
