[QUOTE="ThatRobGuy, post: 74324409, member: 123415"] It shouldn't be meaningless...however, it's become that way due to inconsistent enforcement. The FBI even admitted to it. [I]The FBI's hate crimes statistics for 1993, which similarly reported 20% of all hate crimes to be committed against white people, prompted Jill Tregor, assistant regional FBI director, to decry it as "an abuse of what the hate crime laws were intended to cover", stating that the white victims of these crimes were employing hate crime laws as a means to further penalize minorities.[/I] [I][/I] In a nutshell "[I]These laws were supposed to give us a means to add additional penalties for hate crimes when white people do it, however, when people do it against whites, it's just a means to further penalize them[/I]" ...which is a shame, because if consistently enforced, they'd be a great way to send the message that "baseless hate has no place in our country". However, with the way they're (admittedly) enforced by the FBI, they're used as a means to over penalize certain groups in an attempt to make up for past wrongs. [/QUOTE]
