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.

Abvex, he was Neo-Nazi (rather, believed in it), not Christian. You're jumping to conclusions in an effort to make it look like all Christians are as much terrorists as anyone else. I'm sorry to burst your bubble...

Actually, I was hoping to get a respond like yours, now you know how Muslims feel when terrorist are tied to Islam.
Neo-Nazi = Terrorist
I know Christian is a peaceful religion, I was merely proving a point there.

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.

There's actually a strong argument against this, for two reasons. The first is from conservatives who insist that orientation shouldn't be protected, because listing it would give it 'credibility.' (My personal opinion is that these people are crazy.) I can understand the second argument, though: if there's a brutal attack on someone because of their race, is that really any worse than a brutal attack on someone because, say, they were wearing the wrong colors or whtanot? There shouldn't be certain 'categories' of people that you get penalized for attacking more.
As long as hate crime laws exist, though, I do believe homosexuals should be protected under them.

Neo-Nazi people even hates Christians because of their view toward racial equality.
Sadly, there are a few Christians who have Neo-Nazi attitudes.
