I'll wait for people to say we don't need this because there are already laws about attacking people.
Hey, I'll say it: we don't need this law because there are already laws about attacking people (including police officers).
I personally can't stand the "hate crime" designation AT ALL. If I beat up someone because I want their shoes, that's not as bad as beating up someone because they're gay or a different ethnicity?
