And I am totally against it, 100%...even in the cases where I feel like the little bastard should fry. But I think that cut and dry about every criminal issue. There is a standard of measurement of culpability and it is the standard applied to everyone regardless of social status, economic standing, color, race, creed or religion. That black and white measure is what leads me to detest hate crime legislation and trying juveniles as adults: the law should be dispassionate, totally objective, and blind to petty human emotion.
Unfortunately it is run by humans. So this can never happen.
