[QUOTE="soberups, post: 570174, member: 14668"] If we as a society are going to classify a broad range of criminal behavior as "hate crimes" worthy of harsher consequences solely because of racist motives on the part of the perpetrator....then we need to look at [I]both[/I] sides of that coin. If a cop is doing his job and gets falsely accused of being a racist....then [I]that[/I] action should also be classified as a hate crime and whoever makes that false accusation should be charged with such. You cant have it both ways. You cant play the race card only when it suits you and then expect no consequences when your accusation is false. Such false accusations can destroy someones career. And they are based upon the race of the person involved; therefore in my opinion they meet the legal definintion of a hate crime. [/QUOTE]
