I find it pretty disturbing that so many people on this site can't distinguish why violence directed at a specific group because of that groups traits is worse than random acts of violence. The 9/11 attacks and most terrorism for that matter, acts of genocide and some wars occur when groups of like minded people target specific groups. These things are obviously far worse than a random murder or beating.

Your comparisons are mass murder vs one death or one beating.

If a group of people went around with guns and shot up a bunch of random people in a town for no good reason, or just randomly killed people like the Manson family do you really think people would say "Well gee that's not as bad."

Not a chance.

Again though... I ask you.  If someone kills someone because they're gay, and someone else kills someone because they just felt like killing someone...  What other crimes does the second person have to comit to be "just as bad"

Wouldn't a person like that be classified as 'criminally insane'?
