rural pnw is viciously racist. it's where many of the confederates went after the civil war because they could not tolerate living among black people without racialized slavery.
oregon's history, in particular, is as deeply racist as it is hidden from the incurious https://www.oregonlive.com/history/2020/06/oregons-founders-sought-a-white-utopia-a-stain-of-racism-that-lives-on-even-as-state-celebrates-its-progressivism.html
we should dress up as union soldiers and burn down their houses and shoot them
Does he not know he could just join ICE?
Probably accepted his loser ass on the spot but told him he'd need 3 whole days of training and his mania just couldn't wait any longer

I merged two comments together...
It's Douglas County. Confederate flags are a common sight out that way—thousands of miles away from the actual former Confederacy. Southern Oregon feels like a totally different country from Portland.

Bias crimes? Is that what we're calling it now?
It's an Oregon thing. - https://hexbear.net/comment/6884609
Feels like it softens the crime.
I don't know anything about it. My wild guess is that progressives wrote the law so it can be more inclusive and it's easier to charge people. If my wild assumption is right - I assume the punishments are weak.
I said this in another comment but I'll say it here too: It makes me feel less safe having people soften the language. I do not trust the people that came up with this at all, they wanted to soften the language and used some fringe situations where the language doesn't apply as a means of softening the language for ALL situations under the guise of broadening or "including" other things.
I think it also feeds into the chud narrative “they’re criminalising everything that’s not woke” (à la Peterson and claiming that using incorrect pronouns would land you in jail)
Yeah there's just no need to soften the language for the existing things when you can give a new word to the things that don't fit into it.
The only reason to include them is to deliberately soften the existing language. It's deeply sus behaviour and I don't trust the people that did it. I categorically oppose any attempt to soften the description of hate crimes.
Be a real shame is someone shot this dullard cracker right in his pie-hole for trying to abudct them.
