To not help but hate those who commit hate crimes myself?

I know it's counterproductive and pretty hypocritical, but I just can't help feeling really disgusted by the way some people act towards those whom are different.

I don't hate someone who is just rude and ignorant, I just feel sorry for them. But for those who commit really, really heinous crimes because of it.

My sisters best friend got murdered nearly 8 years ago (8 years ago on Saturday) because he was gay.

Someone else I know got beaten up just because he was of a different race than those who attacked him.

I don't know what can realistically be done about these people, but AIBU to just really want to give them what they give to these poor, poor people.

Yanbu to feel hatred for those who commit hate crimes!

Don't feel bad about feeling that way either - it's a natural human reaction to behaviour that is disgusting and criminal.

I guess so.

I just don't like being a hypocrite.
