“Investigators said the attack wasn’t a hate crime, just a carjacking that went terribly wrong. Local media and The Associated Press have covered developments in the case since it began.”

The thing that makes no sense is that there are some numb-skulls out there that argue that there has to be a racial component...a taunt or something...to make it a “hate crime”...but if there was no one there to hear it, how do we know there were or weren’t things said? And what could possibly change the murder into hate more than the savagery that was visited upon these two children? The whole “hate crime” mess is such a cluster-muck...I will never understand how we lost control of the legal system to the point that there is no longer equal protection under the law.

My definition of a “hate crime” is very simple. Every crime.

“just a carjacking that went terribly wrong.”

Yeah, from the description, it sounds like it was all a big accident. Stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. And from the prosecutors, no less.
