I find it hard to charge a mentally ill person with a hate crime only because they lack the faculties of sound reasoning. To hate a group by the actions of a few is not sound thought. On the other hand when a sound person blames a group for actions that group is not guilty then that person has comitted a hate crime. An example of a hate crime then would be the Obama administration blaming "radical Islam" for the attack on our embasy in Benghazi when they knew Libyan loyalist were responsible.
