P.O. is passing a very wide range "hate crime" bill which makes sexual types as a minority for the hate crime universe. It is my opinion that hating someone should not have any effect on the sentencing of crimes. How about adding 5 years to any crime that is committed with a gun? True gun control without hurting innocent members of society.
Kingston Trio "The Merry Minuet": The French hate the Germans. The Germans hate the Poles. Italians hate Yugoslavs. South Africans hate the Dutch and I don't like anybody very much!

I am pretty sure that just hating the red wings is not a hate crime. If I were to attack Johan Franzen or Chris Draper and leave them bloody on the ice, THAT would be a hate crime. It is pretty unlikely that would happen.... but you never know.
