Hate crimes are crimes that are motivated by hate or prejudice,
whether it is based on race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or
gender. Many people argue that these crimes should carry extra
penalties because, in the words of former Supreme Court Chief
Justice William H. Rehnquist, 'this conduct is thought to inflict
greater individual and societal harm...bias-motivated crimes are
more likely to provoke retaliatory crimes, inflict distinct
emotional harms on their victims, and incite community unrest'.
Opponents of hate-crime laws argue that extra penalties amount to
prosecuting people for thought crimes. ""Hate Crimes"" examines
both sides of this debate.
