Curious directionalism.
When the actions are against certain groups, they are labeled as hate crimes or race crimes.
When the actions are by cerrtain groups, they are not labeled as hate crimes or race crimes.
Beheading civilians seems hate-based.
Blowing up buses with civilians on them seems hate-based.
Blowing up trains with civilians on them seems hate-based.
Plowing hijacked airliners filled with civilians into buildings populated with civilians seems hate-based.
Maybe it is just my perception.
Perhaps we need a better PC definition of what hate-based is from the PC crowd. They seem rather one-sided in their accusatings of what is 'hate-based.'

Read the article - legislation is being proposed to clamp down on the imams based on their activities being "hate based".
I do wish people would read the bloody thing before commenting on it.

" They seem rather one-sided in their accusatings of what is 'hate-based.'"Until they address this point, I think there will be more backlash.
While in no way condoning what is written about here, I can understand how the Brits involved must feel. They've opened their country to these people, in many cases they've supported them via the dole--and for this, they are attacked.

Standing next to a stroller before you blow yourself up kind of seems more than hate-based to me. It seems like pure evil.
