See, but here's the thing. Irresponsible speech that promotes violence will always lead to suppression. You 4chan jackoffs knew this a long time ago, but thought that it was more important to be edgelords and have lulz than it was to be responsible. So now, you reap the whirlwind and spoil it for every
A society that can't take edgelords in stride is pretty damn useless. Maybe the answer is to realize that humor, tasteless or otherwise, is unimportant, and let is pass.

And if it had no real world consequence then I would be on your side. However, hate crimes have been spiking and it turns out some edgelords aren't really being edgy at all. Should we just take people being murdered because of these internet clowns in stride?
And that ignoratio elenchi you're peddling? Well, ready or not, open wide...
First of all, setting the argument as if it is about the "value of the victim" [wikipedia.org] clearly shows that you are scum. That you're also setting that up as a strawman shows also signs of mental retardation and sociopathy. You think that you are smarter than the average bear, but you're actually so pathetic that you don't even realize how epic your dumbness and ignorance truly are.
See... the actual issue is with the severity of the crime due to its premeditated nature (there are no accidental hate crimes) AND the presented lack of remorse. You don't shoot up a synagogue, a mosque, a church, a gay wedding, an abortion clinic etc. due to a momentary lapse of reason - you do it because you believe such an act to be morally RIGHT.
That is why people who commit hate crimes deserve a harsher sentence. It has nothing to do with the "value of the victim". But thanks for pointing out to everyone that YOU believe it to be so. I.e. That lives of some people ARE inherently "more valuable" - and that said value revolves around hate crime issues. Like race, religion, sex, ethnicity etc.
Oh and that's not a real cock I just showed down your throat. It's a catheter for artificially inseminating swine. Only been used once. On your mom.
As for motive determining guilt or innocence... Do you even language motherfucker?
Would you like some cock down your throat too? Aw hell, why not... It's not like I'll run out of copy/paste any time soon while you try to block me for calling you out as sniveling racist cunts that you are. Anyway... as I was saying to that racist scumbag Penguinisto up there...

I see no problem here (except with some employees who are complaining, who should probably be fired).

So what makes a victim of any other similar crime less valued and less harmed than the victim of a "hate crime"?
In a world where equal rule of law is supreme, motive should only determine guilt or innocence, and not severity.
