That's definitely true. That's pretty much why I disagree with the whole "hate crime" thing. If you purposely kill someone, the motive shouldn't matter. Whether you killed them because of their skin/hair/eye color, killed them out of jealousy, killed them for monetary gain, etc. The reason really doesn't matter, the crime is still the same. in my opinion.
