if proven the sentence would've been harsher no doubt, trouble is it's quite hard to prove a hate crime, a guy I went to school with was murdered by an Asian gang a few years back and they were screaming racial abuse as they kicked him to death but apparently that wasn't a hate crime according to the cps

My default position with Nicky is that he's telling lies almost every time he states something anyway.
