But if the person attacks the white middle aged guy simply because he hates him, thats not a hate crime and the guy should get a smaller sentence, right?

Again, hate crimes refer to groups, and are meant to targert a certain type of criminal (one who thinks harassing/assaulting/killing a group of people due to certain characteristics that group possese is justified and right).

Hate crimes refer to the crimes that involve hate. than pretty much every type of aussault and murder. is a hate crime. Because every person belongs to a certan group of people.The motive is not important. Its the crime itself. A guy who beat up a gay person shouldnt get a higher sentence than a guy who beat up straight person, even if he does hate gay people.
