Really, does the perpetrator/racist know what they are doing when they attack anyone that is gay, or of ethnic origin? The African-Americans were attacked in the 1900's because of their color in the deep south.

The gays in San Diego were attacked because three people looked at them, and thought they were gay. So they were attacked with a baseball bat. One of them expressed remorse over the incident. And the same kind of attacks happened on the east coast.

of course they know

and the remorse was remorse for going to prison, not for being a homophobic jerk

And they have a long time in prison to think about their actions, too.

But wouldn't you get prison time for killing anyone, "hate crime" or not?

The extra time isn't gonna keep people from killing. That's proven every day.

Yes, but it's more time spent getting butt fucked by ugly, stinky, hairy guys covered in tattoos.

So that's what San Diego is famous for. And here I thought it was just vastly overpriced real estate that defined the city.

Hypothetically speaking, shouldn't a group that puts a burning cross on someone's lawn be punished more severely then a group that just builds a bonfire?
