U.S. state of Louisiana passes law that expands hate crime laws to include law enforcement officials
| http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/louisiana-governor-signs-blue-lives-matter-bill/ar-BBtwbs9?ocid=DELLDHP Can u believe this? People already get busted for "disorderly conduct" 4 insulting cops. Now they can have an even worse punishment cuz that would be a "hate crime"! |
| The concept of a "hate crime" is utterly ridiculous. Every crime is a "hate crime". I swear, I'm getting pretty close to hoping that one of those generic anime villains would appear to destroy this "rotting society" so it could be "reborn". |

| can anyone explain to me the words "hate crime"? the concept feel very blurry for me... |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |

| Does Louisiana have a shortage on prisoners or something? If they enforce this, I can see prisons filled to the brim with people charged with 'hate speech'. And do those cops have such thin skin that they can't even take a bit of verbal abuse anymore? When I was still working in security, I was taught that you get insults, because you;re in uniform, not so much for who you are, which make sense, because these people don't even know you personally. So, unless they threaten you with a weapon, or just make a death threat in general, I don't see why they need to combat 'hate speech' so aggressively. |

| To have it include just casual insults is stupid. yhunata said: The concept of a "hate crime" is utterly ridiculous. Every crime is a "hate crime". I swear, I'm getting pretty close to hoping that one of those generic anime villains would appear to destroy this "rotting society" so it could be "reborn". Not entirely. It's just a way of categorizing crimes by motive to give more accurate sentencing. There is a difference between targeting people someone knows personally and targeting generalized groups of people. Although going after specific groups isnt necisarily better or worse than going after completely random people. |
| It sucks when there are laws forbidden people to insult others. |

| I think you guys are blowing this out of proportion. Tbh I think it is hate crime (idk if I think "hate" crimes should be taken more seriously or not) That said you arnt gonna be arrested for calling a cop a pig any more so than for calling a black person a racial slur. Your probably not gonna get into legal trouble unless you go over the top |
| Well it's a good thing I love everyone I rob. The police are pigs but I love pigs. I want a pet pig. They're so cute. |
 |
| I hate hate crime laws, they make me want to kill myself and not a swift death... Makes me want to stab something. Maybe I should go on a killing spree and kill everyone I see that are privileged by hate crime laws. |
