So the straight black thug that callously kills a straight black young man because he wanted his shoes and wallet, or because the victim rubbed up on “his woman” in da’ club is somehow not more or even equally egregious than the thug that does the exact same thing, but the victim is of a different race or sexual orientation. The latter gets an extra five to ten years. The two-tiered system of justice just keeps on expanding, and Republican cowards in the legislature just cave and roll over because they are terrified of anyone calling them a racist for refusing to succumb to the purple-haired, Che Guevara T-shirt wearing activist or the career race- baiting grifters who literally make a living travelling around via funding from the Maoist social justice crowd.

Funny. Fits”News” has no problem with DeSantis’ Don’t Say Gay law?

Fits”News” has no problem with the banning of books from libraries when MAGA extremists do it?

Fits”News” is against Hate Crime laws because it exists to carry water for the Party of Hate. Whose officials and voter base commit hate crimes on the regular.

Fits”News” does not care about any slippery slope involving the First Amendment. Just protecting ‘conservatives’.

This column is, like it or not, spot on. When legislators begin to try to legislate words, they have gone too far. This, as Sen Stephens said in the video clip, is unconstitutional.
I also agree with the comment that all crime is a matter of “hate” because of just what IT is.
