I certainly hope that the police and prosecutors are successful in getting the killer.
Rep. Barney Frank, a Massachusetts Democrat, called on Washington to pass a bill that would extend the federal law on hate crimes to cover offenses targeting people because of sexual orientation.
In some states that might seem needlessly redundant. For Massachusetts getting the Federal government to do the job may be what it takes for a capital crime to bring an adequate sentence.

Many of the Neo-Nazis have a religion called "Christian Identity", which is a highly distorted derivative of Christianity. It is described pretty well at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Identity
Every mainstream Christian demonination regards the Christian Identity Movement as thoroughly fake Christianity. All the Biblical prohibitions against crimes like the recent one in New Bedford are wasted on the Christian Identity Movement, whose main purpose seems to be to rationalize their way around those behavior standards.

Neo-Nazi people even hates Christians because of their view toward racial equality.
Sadly, there are a few Christians who have Neo-Nazi attitudes.He who hates correction will die. --Proverbs 15:10

I kind of have some doubts about the value of hate crime laws at the felony level. Beating, maiming, and killing people because of their race, enthnicity, sexual orientation, or whatever kind of group identity is nasty. So is doing so to someone for the change in his pocket or a combination of homicidal whim and random victim vulnerability. The penalties should be harsh for any of those motives. In some states it is, in some states it isn't. Massachusetts may be a state that needs to ask the Federal government to do the prosecution to keep itself from paroling guys like Robida.
I think hate crime laws may have more value at the misdemeanor level. It seems like there should be a harsher penalty for painting "Kill the ______s!" on a big rock than for painting "A loves B", or "Hooray for our team!".

In about ten years or so, when Arkansas is preparing to execute Robida, liberals may be feeling a bit conflicted as they recall his crimes in Massachusetts.

Awful story. I hope that guy gets caught, and gets the death penalty.
