_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Some interesting facts.... Did you know? CURRENT HATE CRIME DEFINITION
American Heritage Dictionary hate crime n. A crime motivated by prejudice against a social group: "[His]murders were hate crimes targeting victims by gender"
(Jane Caputi and Diana E.H. Russell).

______________________________________________________ EQUAL JUSTICE UNDER LAW? CURRENT HATE CRIMES LAW IN UNITEDS True Hate Crimes - Join the Impact
As defined in the 1999 National Crime Victim Survey, "A hate crime is a criminal offense committed against a person or property
motivated, in whole or in part, by the offender's bias against a race, religion, ethnicity/national origin, gender, sexual preference, or
disability. The offense is considered a hate crime whether or not the offender's perception of the victim as a member or supporter
of a protected group is correct."
[21] In the United States federal prosecution is possible for hate crimes committed on the basis of a person's race, color, religion,
or nation origin when engaging in a federally protected activity. As of October 2007, Congress is considering the
Matthew Shepard Act (Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2007), legislation that would add
gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, and disability
to the list.
Forty-five states and the District of Columbia have statutes criminalizing various types of hate crimes.
Thirty-one states and the District of Columbia have statutes creating a civil cause of action in addition to the criminal penalty for similar acts.
Twenty-seven states and the District of Columbia have statutes requiring the state to collect hate crime statistics
[22]
According to the FBI Hate Crime Statistics report for 2006, hate crimes increased nearly 8 percent nationwide, with a total of 7,722 incidents and 9,080
offenses reported by participating law enforcement agencies. Of the 5,449 crimes against persons, 46 percent were classified as intimidation and 31.9 percent as simple assaults. 81 percent of the 3,593 crimes against property were acts of vandalism or destruction. 58.6 percent of the 7,330 known offenders were white and 20.6 black. More than half, 52 percent, of the 9,652 victims identified were targeted because of race.

Arguments in opposition to hate crime laws

The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously found that hate crime statutes which criminalize bias-motivated speech or symbolic speech conflict with free speech rights because they isolated certain words based on their content or viewpoint .[27] Arguments against hate crime legislation include the following:
  • Perpetrators of the same criminal act should not be treated differently because they hold different beliefs or motives.[28]
  • Over time, these provisions might be disregarded and hate crime laws and associated case law could evolve to the point where speaking out strongly against a particular group or its actions could be construed as a libelous hate crime, violating rights to freedom of expression, thought, religion (among others).[29]
  • Penalties that do not include hate-crimes enhancement are already sufficient, in that vandalism, assault and murder have always been illegal and subject to prosecution. The fact that they still occur does not justify infringing on the freedoms of speech and religion.[30]
  • It brings the law into disrepute and further divides society, as groups apply to have their critics silenced.[31]
  • Religious practices will become subject to government regulation, violating the separation of church and state.[32]
  • Allowing a self-declared victim to decide if a crime has occurred violates the principle of objective justice.[33]
  • If it is true that all violent crimes are the result of the perpetrator's contempt for the victim, then all crimes are hate crimes. Thus if there is no alternate rationale for prosecuting some people more harshly for the same crime based on who the victim is, then different defendants treated unequally under the law, which violates the United States Constitution.[34][35]
