That's just being fucking demonic for the public
With current events, yes its a hate crime
I mean shouldn't it be a hate crime regardless of current events?
But yes.
A hate crime is when the crime intentionally targets a specific demographic.
So it should still be considered a hate crime regardless of current events, no?
The attempted murderer said very specific racist things while trying to drown the child.
It's a hate crime as well as attempted murder.
This women attempted murder after confirming the mother was Palestinian. Textbook hate crime.
I don't think it's that deep. She saw a hijab and went full hate, nothing specifically about Palestinians, just so happens to be that the victims are also Palestinian.
"The child’s mother, 32, told police that the suspect, identified as Elizabeth Wolf, 42, questioned where she was from and made statements about her not being American, as well as “other racial statements.” "
Questioned doesn't mean she was answered and then attacked. She was also shit faced and hostile. I doubt she heard or even cared if she did. She's just going Muslim=bad as Fox has drilled at her.
This is true. Hopefully it doesn’t negatively affect the case against this person. Specifying it as a hate crime means that will need to be proved in the court. Or maybe I’m not understanding the law as well as LegalEagle makes me think.
Controversial opinion: attempted murder is a serious deal regardless of whether or not it's a hate crime.
No doubt about that, and I’m probably wrong about having to prove it was a hate crime. I just wouldn’t want that aspect to allow for this person to “get away”with it because it wasn’t “racially motivated”
