This Hate Crimes Bill (Bias Crimes) allows courts to increase sentencing against offenders based on their perceptions of what the assailant was thinking about the victim at the time a crime was committed.  These protections are only provided to certain protected classes of people in this bill.  For instance, if a person of color were to attack a white male because of his bias against white males, then there would be no enhanced sentencing.  This is creates unequal protections of the law, a violation of the 14th Amendment.
