No such thing as a “hate crime”.
A crime of violence is a crime of violence, whatever your frame of mind.
Hate crimes = thought crimes.
The marxists want to punish your thoughts.
They continue to demonstrate this with each passing day.
Whether it’s transgender insanity (pronouns), jab mandates, election fraud, a certain laptop with pornographic and illegal activities of a certain first son, the list goes on.
There are some things you’re not allowed to think or discuss and certain people beyond criticism.
Ignore the “hate crime” propaganda for what it is. Authoritarian drivel.
