I don't think that the logic behind "hate crimes" is quite that facile, but I think I agree with South Park on this one. With hate crimes you have to get into motive, and I don't think that having bigotry as a motive should make a crime more or less illegal. I don't think that you get rid of bigotry by punishing it away.
