But at a certain point, it doesn't really matter why you're doing something. Killing someone because they're black/gay/Jewish/etc arguably isn't all that much worse than killing someone because you find them annoying/because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time/because it's Tuesday, and there really isn't a need for an entirely new classification of crime.

Sometimes things just need to be codified into law to explicitly make clear "do not do this", for certain people to understand it. (It is a balance that also includes politicians trying to look good and sometimes a genuine need to make those examples in the law, because the target groups legally had their status changed)
