Sounds fair enough. If you're that much of an idiot then sure, why not?

12 years wtf? Pretty sure that's about the same as rape. Don't think that's fair but whatever.

I honestly don't think there should be "hate crimes" at all, a crime is a crime is a crime as far as I'm concerned doesn't matter if a white guy did it to a black guy or a black guy did it to a white guy (in which case it wouldn't be considered racist btw, but that's for another discussion)

I'd agree with that in most cases. But cases like burning a cross, is that really a crime? It becomes a crime because of how it is done. Same with drawing a Swastika on someones house. Its just a drawing right. Legally your just vandalizing. But it is used to intimidate and harrass and abuse citizens. Making it a hate crime.

As far as Mr.Puggsly your right their are still alot of racist crimes commited in Canada. No countries perfect but our laws do protect those who are attacked. I know where I live Indo-Canadians always attack white guys, in turn white guys attack indo Canadians. Asians in Vancouver get attacked and attack in turn.

But for the most part Canada is a country where people of all races and religions do live peacefully amongst each other. KKK is non-existant here and while their are some neo-Nazi's they are also dissapearing. It's not like the USA or many other countries.

First off, burning a cross creates a significant risk of the fire spreading and burning down the house and it is a sign of harassment so it is a very serious crime.

Secondly, in sentencing a judge has leeway to determine whether a crime was "worse" than another crime and give an appropriate punishment. Why are hate-crime laws needed?

You obviously have no ideea what a hate crime is (hint, it referes to the motive).

 

Also, it would be great if people who harass homosexuals would be treated the same way as these guys.

You don't know how unbelievably ignorant you sound.

I blame the Canadian media.

I live in the Southwest. Do you think we are still cowboys fighting indians?

It's not like we Americans have a bunch of empty prisons looking for someone to put behind bars. If we decide to be all haters behind bars there wouldn't too many people lefted outside to support the prisons.



Cant wait to have my tax dollars pay for these clowns food and shelter for 12 years.

Canada rox!!!!

You cannot posisbly think that they will receive the maximum possible sentencing.

And hey, at least our (HA! I can say "our" now) system isn't the Christ-forsaken Hell that the American system is
