Maybe we'll get the "why" from the attackers eventually, but that cuts to the heart of the problem with the concept of hate crimes in general. What is the important societal factor here, the crime or the intent?

These punks need to be prosecuted and the victims deserve justice. I'm not sure the why really matters in the grand scheme of things any more than the victim's commentary and critique thereof matters either.
FTR, I never made any declarative statement, gave an opinion presented as factual or guessed the intent of the attackers in my posts.

I'm not sure if Druff did any of these but since I called him a "fucking idiot" I'll guess that he did multiple times.
