    Hate crimes shouldn’t exist at all. They’re just normal crimes.

        LoL, property ownership is a core fundamental of freedom.

          Property ownership as in having a consistent place to live and for family to gather, sure.

          As in owning stuff beyond your personal trappings, that can create conflict with the good of the community and the public.
