THE ODD LOGIC OF HATE-CRIME LAWS
by Steve Chapman
Columnist, Chicago Tribune
FULTON'S COMMENTARY ON THIS ARTICLE: |
In this excellent article, Chapman correctly observes that hate-crime laws are illogical and irrational, providing punishment for ideas and thoughts, not for actions. For my commentary on this issue, see Hate Crime.
