Alabama + Zero
http://endablog.wordpress.com/2008/05/16/alabama-zero/ (http://endablog.wordpress.com/2008/05/16/alabama-zero/)
From the Alabama Legislature's website:
Under existing law, additional penalties are imposed against a person if the offense committed is motivated by the victim's race, color, religion, national origin, ethnicity, or physical or mental disability.
This bill would provide for those additional penalties for a crime motivated by the victim's sexual orientation.
You know what's coming, right?
