Rutgers man who jumps off bridge to his death.

The whole premise of labeling something a hate crime is wrong and un-american. A crime is a crime, if someone did something like that to me. Why is that any less of a crime against me vs someone else who is gay.

agree...do u think they committed a crime?

I don't think they are guilty of murder or manslaughter for that matter.

They're guilty of being epid D-Bags and humiliating this poor guy. Hate crime? No way.

yes i was agreeing with that 100% and that a crime on anyone is the same for everyone...just wanted to know if he or anyone else thinks what they did is indeed a crime...i believe there has to be a victim for a crime

I think videotaping someone without their knowlegde is a crime, especially if it's of a sexual nature. They should not be charged with a hate crime or any other crime that has to do with the kids death. They are not legally responsible for the kids actions afterwards. Now is that to say they are not somehow liable, no. I think they can be held accountable in a civil court matter. As shitty as that sounds, who on the planet as not been picked on. Teasing and being embarresed is part of life. Life is not fair, and will never be fair. The decision to try and charge these kids with a hate crime is purely political and knee jerk in nature.
