@Donbangs1 @RepLucyMcBath The entire criminal justice system already is predicated on proving the mens rea or intent of the defendant. That means figuring out what the defendant was thinking. — PolitiTweet.org

Today @RepLucyMcBath & I are introducing the Stop Hate Crimes Act, which states it’s a hate crime if race or other protected class was a contributory motivating factor. Bill is based on the principle that defendants can commit a crime for multiple reasons. https://t.co/YxahKIMuON — PolitiTweet.org

@angthebandit @RepLucyMcBath If I think I want to assault an Asian American because I hate Asians, that’s a thought but not a crime. If I execute on that thought and assault an Asian American because I hate Asians, then that’s a crime. Courts have routinely stated hate crime statutes are constitutional. — PolitiTweet.org
