"Crime is crime."

The murder isn't the only issue. It's the incitement to the crimes that's the difference in "hate crimes". Not that a murder victim is any deader because of the motive, but that if we don't act with particular repugnance after someone is attacked for loving people the wrong way or looking funny it will be repeated.

A hate crime is no worse for the victim than a similar crime committed out of avarice or envy, but it's arguably worse for society as a whole.
