As I just said it wasn’t a hate crime, it was a bias crime and the judge noted the distinction.

I think both are bad ideas, hate and bias crimes. The conduct itself should be criminal but not the individual bias or hate.

In this case invasion of privacy. Why should a hetero kid who is spied on not have the identical legal protections? Seems fair to me.

Right. I was referring to the Title and the bigger issue this case revolves around.
