Court documents show the suspects severely beat 35-year-old Aaron Hall, then dumped his body in a ditch. The victim's family now calls the murder a hate crime.
They killed him. They fucking beat him to death. I don't care what color he was, or whether he was queer or not, there is no excuse for their actions. They are murders.... period.

I can see broadening laws against discrimination to make sure every one is covered, but laws that are already making something a crime for everyone covers that act/crime.

I don't have strong convictions on this but I just don't see the point of making laws more complicated than they already are. It doesn't make sense. What am I missing here?
