but why does it matter what you were feeling in your heart? What does that have to do with the punishment? All that matters is that you hurt someone and you are now being punished for it.
Wrong. For the same reason we consider killing a police officer or a terrorist attack a higher crime. Because it is more destructive to society. So the Justice system has enhancements for these crimes.

Killing a police officer is more destructive to society because there is one less person out there keeping the peace and because they purposely put themselves in harms way to protect people. A terrorist attack is considered so bad because most terrorist attacks involve IEDs or other explosions and are used as publicity stunts. Why are hate crimes so much worse than normal crimes?

Also you probably don't realize this, but hate crimes are unfairly reported against white people and are often not reported in cases of black hate crimes.
Here is an example that I;m sure you won't look at.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpjIYACl3s0

What I dont understand is why in the US the red color refers to the Republicans if we all know that historically the red color has always been the symbol of communism. 😁

Well since you are obviously too lazy to be bothered to do a 20 minute google search, allow me to enlighten you. "Archie Tse, The New York Times graphics editor who made the choice when the Times published its first color presidential election map in 2000, provided a nonpolitical rationale for retaining the red–Republican link, explaining that "Both 'Republican' and 'red' start with the letter 'R.'" As you can see, the color red being associated with republicans is a relatively recent phenomenon. As a matter of fact, in 2014, the Californian republican party was the first to choose it's ow color, rather than the historic tration of the media choosing it for them. It chose blue. Unfortunately for you, this was not nearly as much of a stumper as you would have expected. 😁

Imagine if people were inclined to kill other people that look like you.

Are you bald?

Are you overweight?

Your bio says you are a Protestant. Imagine if there lots of people looking to kill Protestants. Would that concern you? Would that cause fear in your life if a few dozen Protestants had been murdered at various church meetings in your neighborhood.

Here is an example that I;m sure you won't look at.
A guy named Matt Walsh on YouTube? No. That’s not a reliable source. Why don’t you tell me a story you heard at the barbershop to back up your claim?

Funny how when Sidewalker linked a video to TYT you said nothing, but all the sudden when Matt comes up, you call him unreliable. What are you so afraid of? He was reporting on the news of the subway, just like every other media outlet at  the time.

It would concern me and cause fear. That doesn't mean it should be labeled as a hate crime though. The people who were killing or conspiring to kill protestants should be put on a trial and if found guilty, punished, just like any other criminal. But labeling an idea or act of violence a "hate crime" doesn't do anything. I wouldn't feel better if the governor came out and said "we've had a terrible series of hate crimes recently". I would want to know how the government is holding these people accountable. Sticking labels on crimes doesn't solve anything.

The fact that a crime against some stranger would concern you and cause you to fear, is exactly why it should be labeled as a hate crime. It’s a form of terrorism, just like the KKK used to terrorize black people. If Protestants were being killed while going to vote, it could cause many Protestants to not try to vote.

But labeling an idea or act of violence a "hate crime" doesn't do anything.
That’s false, labeling it a hate crime increases the penalties if found guilty and can cause the justice system of police investigations and AG prosecution to prioritize resources in obtaining a conviction.

Sticking labels on crimes doesn't solve anything.
Do you think all crimes receive the same amount of resources and effort?

Do you think resources to solve and prosecute crimes is unlimited?

No but I do know that if there is a mass shooting at a store and a diverse group of people are affected, it will be treated just as seriously as a racist one. It may not receive as much press, but prosecutors will put in all their resources in both cases.
